Customer Reviews
- Lynn· July 23rd, 2025This is the best river cruise we have had. The itinerary, staff, and organisation was excellent. The atmosphere was friendly and warm. We made some new, life-long friends. What a shame it had to end.Show more
- Louis· August 11th, 2023The program in the Emerald ship was magnificently planned and discussed. The local music during the cruise was so informative. Long live the music from the Netherlands and Germany through Austria and Slovakya to Hungary! Just for the music, dances and songs I will do the cruise again!Show more
- Yuri· August 24th, 2023Excellent! The best tour guide was a lady in Bratislave, and above all Petr in PragueShow more
