First and last river cruise
I wasn't going to write a review because it's something I just don't bother with, but after talking to colleagues since returning about how poor the trip was, I have been persuaded to air my thoughts. The staff and food were both excellent and this is the reason I have given two stars. However, the organisation of the market visits was absolutely ridiculous. One day spent on the river (very boring) and then one of the days visiting two markets. Bonn market was not even open!!! We were all walking around waiting for the huts to open but only one did before we all had to get back on the ship. On the last day we had to be out of our rooms by 9am but we did not get picked up until 4.30pm so just sat around bored to tears. Apparently, this was day five of our holiday. The evening entertainment was sad. The young man playing guitar was probably very good but we couldn't hear him because he played so quietly. Will never do another river cruise.
