This cruise line makes all kinds of promises and then backs out once they have your money. We paid out almost $30,000 for 3 suites and got bupkes. The bathrooms were so small as to be laughable. You could not turn around in the shower. The maître D was the most ignorant and unpleasant we have ever encountered. We have taken many cruises including ocean and river cruises in Europe and river cruises in U.S. This line is beyond description. SAVE YOUR MONEY Take another cruise line. River cruising is really great fun and very relaxing when cruise line knows what it's doing

We also had to walk several blocks from the hotel to the dock for our embarkation.

The so-called riverlorian was a little old lady who read from notes and obviously did not know her subject or the river very well.

Cabin Review

Cabin Suite

there was a public walking path right beside our veranda so everyone had access to our veranda and we actually had people walking into our room and looking in our windows.
