My wife and I have been on three A-Rosa cruises and are looking forward to planning our next trip. This tour of the Moselle and Rhine was spectacular. We enjoyed the small towns, the food on-board and the always attentive staff. The ships are always comfortable. This time we brought our son’s family and we especially appreciated the attention given to our 7-year old grandson by the captain and hotel manager. Others have commented on being on a German cruise line with mostly German speakers. While we were the only Americans, there were dozens of passengers from Wales and England. Frankly, we prefer being with Germans when we are in Germany. If we wanted to hang out with Americans, we’d vacation in Dallas. We were sad to miss being able to visit Trier due to low water level, but have deep respect for how well A-Rosa dealt with the challenge.Show more

We enjoyed our cruise. It was great! 👍 We were the only English speaking onboard, an all German cruise. However when we booked we understood it was a German company and that was a possibility but it didn’t take anything away from our experience. All the crew speak English and never did we not know where we needed to be or doing. We enjoyed the smaller villages that we stopped at and could explore on our own. The food onboard was amazing. We had a fabulous entertainer on board, her name was Karina and her shows were amazing. All the staff are so friendly and accommodating. The spa services were great 👍 We really enjoyed our cruise. What we liked was we visited places not so touristy and the ship dock was a short walk from the township. We visited places we wouldn’t have been able to visit or actually know to visit! Awesome. 🤩Show more
