first river cruise. food and service was exceptional. .breakfast and lunch were buffet style while dinner was off a menu. the quality of the food and service in the dining room was more than superb. crew knew your names within 24 hours. there was nothing that they wouldn't do for you if asked. the tour choices were terrific and allowed you time to do some wandering on your own. boat and room were nicely decorated. room could have been a bit more spacious, but was fine. for the most part, ports and shore excursions were good. stayed one night in basel, switzerland before the cruise. very enjoyable city. stayed three nights in Amsterdam after the cruise. highly recommend that you do not rush home but extend your stay in Amsterdam. had a great time walking the city and taking tours. . we are already discussing our next uniworld cruise as our first one exceeded our expectations.

Cabin Review

Standard Stateroom

Cabin 2

all cabins were the same size. nicely decorated and in very good shape. it was our first river cruise so were not sure if room location made a difference. spent very little time in the room. would probably recommend going one floor higher. when the boat moved quickly, the water swept against the windows and of course, there was a limited view from the window.
