Excellent value for money cruise. Ship and cabins were good, and crew/staff were excellent. Food was exceptional. Don't let anyone tell you only the 5 star lines have good food!! Very low river levels dictated a few things regarding pour schedule, but it we still got to see all the key towns and cities promised.
