Customer Reviews
- Lorna· May 8th, 2024Great food, entertainment.Show more
- Nicholas· September 11th, 2023Superb experience with professional crew and minute attention to detail. Service excellent and staff always friendly and willing to help. Cabin size more than comfortable and food/drink better than anticipated. As we were 1st time cruisers, we had some misgivings however these were quickly dispelled as we settled in to 'water magic'.Show more
- 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
