    Asked on September 15th, 2023

    I'm travelling in a group of 10 people. We do not have exact dates in mind for May just do not want to travel in July and August. We would want suites with full window doors which I see is on level 6. So we would need 5 rooms. Also, what language are the tours in?

    Accommodation
    Group size
    • CroisiEurope River CruisesOperator•Written September 2023

      Regarding the languages, the official languages on board CroisiEurope ships are French and English. Their team members and tour guides speak English fluently.

      Traveler•Written September 2023

      Hi Evan, yes, I did see the communication. My travelling companions are not interested in the Italy tour. They are in the process of finding other locations to visit. As you can imagine it's challenging trying to make everyone happy. However, should my husband and I decide we want to take this trip what date is the latest we can confirm with you? What would the cost be for my husband and I? We would want the suites on the upper deck as requested previously.

    • CroisiEurope River CruisesOperator•Written September 2023

      We have updated the enquiry page to reflect the price for only 2 passengers in a Horizon Cabin - Deck 3. The total price would be $ 7,746.24. Please note this price does not include international flights, shore excursions, airport transfers, or gratuities.
