Customer Reviews
- Lenore· July 20th, 2023The tour was an absolute delight. Everything from the food to the tours to the company, we loved it. The staff were kind and ensured we had everything we needed to make our experience one to remember foreverShow more
- BarryOConnor· September 10th, 2019We completed the Switzerland by Rail tour followed by the river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest. The land based tour requires a lot of walking. There are no transfers from the station to the hotel, with two exceptions, one transfer is by ferry and the other by bus because the hotel is 10 km out of town. All other transfers from 500 mt up to 900 mt are on foot. For the land based tour you need to carry everything with you for the day as your luggage goes by separate courier to the next hotel. There are certain excursions on the land based tour that will be a challenge for older people, or those with health issues. APT do not disclose the risks associated with these prior to selling you the tour. River cruising first class. Consider the additional cost of a balcony room, as during the second week of the cruise, the ships are moored two and three abreast and your balcony is only 1 mt away from the ship next door.Show more

Asked on September 9th, 2023Do they have disabled rooms available. I will be travelling as a carer for an 80yr old women who has some mobility difficulties especially in bathrooms.
- APTOperator•Written September 2023
The operator "APT" does not have a specific disabled cabin. This ship would have a lift that leads to all internal cabins. In order to assist further, we need to know the requirements. May we know if a wheelchair is required? We will need to know as much information as possible regarding the passenger with mobility issues in order to check with the operator APT that the requirements can be met.
