My wife and I have never been on a Tauck tour, or a riverboat cruise, and are just wondering if there's anyone out there goingtrip on our .
Also, my wife asks if you've been on this or another trip before, what's the one thing you wished you brought along but didn't.

Comfortable walking shoes with treads that don't slip. Was really greatful for my Merrells with the Vibram soles while walking up and down narrow cobbled streets in the rain.
If you're flying coach, bring your own blanket. Delta/Air France supplies ones in coach, but they were very thin and small. Used mine for extra padding on the seat. Also, if you plan to use your own headphones, you may need an adaptor. My sound canceling headphones have a single jack, the airplane used a double so I didn't get stereo sound.
I'm a pretty thorough packer and overdid some for our trip. Several items I'll cut back on. Less clothes for one. As a wise person posted somewhere else on this forum, if you can't wear it at least 3 times think very hard about bringing it. More scarves, less necklaces - as an accessory they weigh less and don't need to go in carry-on bags.
Thread ought to generate some interesting posts.
Can someone tell us if there is coffee maker on board the ship?
Hi - Which trip are you on? My husband and I are on the October 16 Prague to Budapest trip and really looking forward to it. We've also never before done a Tauck tour but have done several other river boat cruises and tons of other travel. We're also going into Prague a day early. Weather should be changeable so we're preparing for anything from 70's to 40's for daytime temps. And rain, of course. Sort of like our northeast U.S. weather at the same time of year.
My husband and I are on the same trip. We are arriving a day early in Prague.
Roger, my wife and I haven't been on Tauck's riverboat tours before either, but we have taken their tours with some cruising included. It was always wonderful, so don't worry about anything. We're booked on the westbound tour after yours, so please leave the riverboat in good shape for us! (Just kidding). This will be our 19th with Tauck, so I know you're going to have an amazing time. Bon voyage!
