the cruise is a slow sail on the Danube, the food acceptable, the evening could and should be a little more animated, for example some music , an animator who could also explain the places that ship goes encountering , so I was not very happy, clean ship, food in the norm, nice staff but that's all, in hindsight I would spend those differently !

The food was very good and sufficient. A better rating would certainly have been given if we had also sailed on the Danube. Due to the weather this was not possible so we went up and down the canal three times

The tour was nice in the evening, the lock is lengthy, why does it take so long?
