The ship is great. The ports were ok, but if you have already been to Europe many times, they were nothing special. We missed the little things that we present pre-Covid. Like the welcome back with water, tea and a towel. The Maître who used to know your name and what you liked. Yes, the wait staff was good and friendly, but it was just missing that something that is hard to put in words.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Did not start allowing people onto the ship until 12 (noon), but rooms were not ready until 3PM. Otherwise it was smooth and good.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food and drinks were excellent. Wine was included with the meals but only the days' select wines (red/white) of the day. Other wine was at an additional charge.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Enough activities to keep everyone busy and entertained.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Very good.
Children's Programs
3 out of 5
We did not have children with us and do not know the answer to this question. However, I did see the staff entertaining young children with games and they seemed to do a good job.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Staff was good, but there was something missing. They were not as punctual or as polite as they were pre-covid. There also was no welcome back (water/tea and towels) after excursions.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Wonderful ship. Best ship I cruised on, after 26 cruises with 6 different cruise lines. Really nicely layout and well done.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Great size, tons of storage, wonderful bathroom. Huge balcony. This was a wonderful suite and it was always cleaned and in good condition.
Ship tip
We had no formal day, check before you go and possibly save yourself suitcase space.
Decided to enjoy the river cruise in stead of 8 hours of bus driving. You will see the vineries the next day, this is a good day to enjoy the scenery on the west side.
