    The river cruise was an excellent way to visit Vienna and Budapest on a tight schedule, and to visit other less known places like Melk, Dürnstein and Esztergom. The crew of the Mona Lisa were always eager to please us, and we found the cabins, bar and restaurant very pleasant. Even though the majority of the passengers were French, the cruise crew always gave the instructions also in English. All in all, great experience!

    A high value cruise down three rivers and a canal with stunning views and exquisite weather. So much fun, entertainment and sheer pleasure. So well organised with a multitude of onshore activities and onboard relaxation. Scrumptious food and bottomless drinks. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and courteous. This is a must do.

    Is there possibly a cruise in Dec that will spend more time in Germany visiting Christmas markets? I was also looking at: Christmastime in Alsace & Germany (Southbound) 2023, although some days seem a bit boring.
