Basel Singles Cruises Reviews

I went on this cruise as part of a travel group of 20. There were some hiccups at the outset due to high water levels on the Rhine. Avalon did an amazing job to make sure their guests were well cared for and accommodated and still provided all the tours. The local guides provided were top notch and the food provided by Avalon delicious and plentiful. The staff worked incredibly hard and ...

This was our first River Cruise, we could not have picked a better company to travel with. Prior to departure the travel information we received was second to none, on arrival our connections were informative and on arriving at the ship we were welcomed on board by all staff that passed us and introduced to other guests already onboard. Our room was perfect very comfortable and clean ( and ...

The entire crew was very nice to work with and helpful to the passengers. The food was very nice, with a wide variety of options. Many thanks to Gavin the cruise director who went above and beyond being helpful to those that need a little extra assistance. Be prepared for moderate to long walking on the shore visits. The amount of walking will be up to each individual. It is also helpful if you ...

After doing 20 ocean cruises, we just returned from our first river cruise on Uniworld River Empress and absolutely loved it! The itinerary (Basel-Amsterdam) was fantastic, with mix of some larger cities (Basel/Amsterdam overnight, Frankfurt and Cologne) and some smaller charming villages/towns. Highly recommended. Uniworld is one of the most inclusive lines, and it's considered a luxury ...

I was going to be in Germany visiting family, and wanted to explore more of the region, and really wanted to go back to Heidelberg. This cruise offered it all. Not only did I see some new, beautiful areas, but enjoyed revisiting some. The included tours made it easy to have time to ourselves to explore on our own. The staff is welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable. The captain was engaging ...

This was our first cruise on Viking. We have sailed in the past on many a other cruise line but after sailing on Viking this summer I can definitely say that Viking sets the standard by which all cruise lines should be judged. The amenities, gourmet food, attention to detail, knowledgeable staff, and wonderful land excursions make a Viking cruise a most enjoyable experience. I was singularly ...

The time of year was the primary choice for us. Also the number of days, on the ship and the fact that it traveled both the Rhine and the Moselle which offers so many different views. The different excursions offered throughout the cruise and the different ports we were stopping at. Having sailed with Avalon before and having been happy with the ship, the crew and Avalon as a whole made the ...

A perfect blend of quaint villages along the Moselle with larger cities like Düsseldorf and Koblenz. We loved the variety of excursions and it was hard to choose between wine tastings and castle tours. We enjoyed the Scenic exclusive tours of the Rastatt palace concert and Hockenheimer F1 insider. Local guides were fantastic, knowledgeable humorous and considerate. On board the variety of food ...
