8-Day Central Europe & Danube River Cruise Tour from Passau: Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna

The trip was very enjoyable

The trip was a very enjoyable experience. We had 3 meals every day that were really good. If I wanted to nit-pick I would say that the Italian dishes were not the chef's favorite, but everything was well done. The crew were all very friendly and efficient.
