    The river cruise was an excellent way to visit Vienna and Budapest on a tight schedule, and to visit other less known places like Melk, Dürnstein and Esztergom. The crew of the Mona Lisa were always eager to please us, and we found the cabins, bar and restaurant very pleasant. Even though the majority of the passengers were French, the cruise crew always gave the instructions also in English. All in all, great experience!

    Our first cruise with CroisiEurope. We have cruised this itinerary previously with APT/Ama Waterways. This Croisi Seine Princess Itinerary was great as ship docked in Honfleur enabling a whole day and evening there. To fit our itinerary we chose this 6 day cruise which does not include stops at Les Andelys or Giverny. Bonus was Paris nighttime cruise at the end as this ship is permitted upstream where other cruise ships are not. Ship is comfortable, clean well equipped and crew very welcoming and friendly, especially Purser Maryline who made extra effort to ensure the small group of English speakers were included. Food quality excellent. Fixed 3 course menu lunch + dinner and open bar from noon. All crew speak English. We rate this very high - extraordinary value.
