    Overall it was a great cruise. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Excursions were very good and I would recommend taking them. Food was very good, but you had no choice unless you advised prior to meal that you wanted something other than what was being served that day. If you want a true French experience than this is the crusise for you.

    Croisieurope tours are well organised and I love the fact that I don't have to choose what to eat, the menus are ready for you although if you have specific food requests they will accommodate you. Breakfast is a buffet. The cabin was great, very clean and comfortable, we chose the top deck which was great. They are spacious enough and clean with a daily cleaning service. We particularly like the the cost includes food and drinks, including tea, coffee water. My only criticism on this tour is Cussac is just a fort at the side of the river, there was no way to get to the village. The staff were marvellous and couldn't be any more helpful
