We received a letter from Tauck yesterday regarding a special offer for some of the final river cruises of 2023. They were for two cruises - The Blue Danube and The Rhine, Swiss Alps and Amsterdam. The offer was a cabin credit as well as some good airfares.
While we have traveled extensively with Tauck, we have never been on a river cruise. Both of these cruises appear to have multiple openings for all different categories of rooms. While we have visited many of the destinations on land tours, we are considering this opportunity. I'd like to get your opinions and some feedback about the different categories of rooms and also the specific cruises, if you've taken them.
I know that Alan likes the two level rooms. Which types of rooms do others prefer? Also, have you traveled in October? I assume that the days are very short. How does this enter into the touring experience? I recall being in London and Paris in October and having it dark at 8AM and then again by 4PM.
Thank you for your comments.
