- PMPaul· August 27th, 2024Great introduction into river cruises . Rooms good ,food excellent, all added excursions were really informative and well planned.Trip date: August 2024
- HVHendrik· July 30th, 2024The cruise was wonderful and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They made sure they were always available and ensured to keep the guests entertained. All the excursions were well arranged and the food was great. They accommodated to our vegetarian requirement. The only thing which can be improved is WiFi on the ship.. it was just not USABLE and the parking at the dock could be a more safe secured place. We had a robbery to our car with a broken glass when we returned from the holiday. Overall very good experience.Show moreTrip date: July 2024

CroisiEurope River Cruises commented on this reviewWe are sorry to hear that our service did not fully meet your expectations. We hope you had a pleasant cruise and we look forward to seeing you on board one of our boats in the near future. Best, CroisiEuropeTrip date: October 2023 - Alfie· August 7th, 2023The tour was very good, the crew were excellent, very helpful, approachable and informative and always available. The tours were great and the Danube is wonderful to cruise on. The food was of excellent quality but the fact that there was no choice on the menu was poor and we feel there should have been an earlier sitting for dinner, and lunch could have been a buffet. The accommodation was adequate but the shower was totally inadequate. We enjoyed the cruiseShow moreCroisiEurope River Cruises commented on this reviewDear Mr. Bradley, thank your for taking the time to review your cruise with us.

- SBSharon· July 7th, 2023Croisie Europe Douce France Cruise and Staff were excellent (Good choice of excursions, excellent service, delicious food). The Travel Agency Tour Radar was very helpful and fast. The only negative point was that the initial indicated price on the website of Tour Radar, with a discount of 500 EUR was not applied with the Travel Agency, which made the cruise more expensive than announced.Show moreCroisiEurope River Cruises commented on this reviewDear Mrs. Burnett, thank you for taking the time to review and rate your cruise with us.
