Amsterdam to Budapest Sept 6-2026
Hello, checking for any updates anyone may have received about this scheduled river cruise. With Tauck being down for software updates I wonder if anyone has heard anything from them. Expecting that some changes will need to be made but hoping tour is still a “ go”.

We’re on that trip as well. Our TA from Pavlus spoke with Tauck this past Monday; she was told to “hang tight”. I expect we’ll hear on Monday or Tuesday after they reopen.
We watch with interest as we scheduled on the “return” cruise from Budapest on Sept 20. We certainly expect some modifications will be needed…but watching and waiting! We are traveling before and after so there are a lot of other travel details that we are prepared to deal with if needed.
The MS Treasures has certainly stayed active and looping all around Amsterdam and the Netherlands over the last few weeks while operating “Off Itinerary”. Today tracked from Nijmegen to Rotterdam and beyond. Also see several boats now moving east of Bratislava and Komarno Slovakia, closer to Budapest.
My wife and I are on this trip. We have not heard anything from Tauck. 10 days out….need better communication on status of trip. So far not impressed but understand the complexities of the issue.
I just spoke to Tauck. Wad told trip still on and their European partners are telling them water levels are “looking a little better”.
Daily water levels can also be referenced on this website:

Ekahi51D, did they say if there are any modifications to the itinerary, such as some bussing?
We are also on the return trip from Budapest on the 20th and hoping things will be good by then. We have made reservations for independent travel to Morocco if they cancel or materially alter the trip.
They said no modifications reported from European contractors. I specifically asked about that.
