Would it be possible to play cricket matches in various places along the Danube some of the days of a cruise

When it comes to the itinerary, it is pretty set up. There is some free time arranged, however, the chances of being near a cricket field along the Danube are very slim.

We completed the Switzerland by Rail tour followed by the river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest. The land based tour requires a lot of walking. There are no transfers from the station to the hotel, with two exceptions, one transfer is by ferry and the other by bus because the hotel is 10 km out of town. All other transfers from 500 mt up to 900 mt are on foot. For the land based tour you need to carry everything with you for the day as your luggage goes by separate courier to the next hotel. There are certain excursions on the land based tour that will be a challenge for older people, or those with health issues. APT do not disclose the risks associated with these prior to selling you the tour. River cruising first class. Consider the additional cost of a balcony room, as during the second week of the cruise, the ships are moored two and three abreast and your balcony is only 1 mt away from the ship next door.Show more

  why has the price almost doubled for 2 singles, we really only need a bed as we will be on top deck most of the time. are there any cheaper cabins please.
- APTOperator•Written February 2025
  The operator has a limited number of single cabins so the price range mentioned is the best that they can offer. Alternative operators for a similar itinerary and duration also are in that same price range. Would you like a cruise that is shorter in duration but more economical in price for April or May of 2026
