Europe River cruise Trips

We loved the bike/barge trip. The countryside in the south of France was beautiful. The crew and guide - Hugo were very helpful, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The cabins are not big (an understatement) but they were sufficient as you are actually out all day. The food was better than we expected. My suggestions to make it better: The cycling on the first day around Avignon is too long, on the first day it could be 2 hours shorter. The ride through the Camargue to meet the boat further down river was unnecessary. We could have stayed on the boat and had a bit more of a relax after a 65km ride the day before. We dont agree with the gratuity at the end of the trip. Why is an additional payment required for them doing their job (dont get me wrong , i thought all the crew were brilliant, i just dont agree with gratuities)

I can't speak highly enough of the crew. They created a thoroughly enjoyable experience and genuinely cared about those of us travelling on board. I loved everything about the trip. There was plenty of activity to be had or rest if that was what was needed. Boating life was wonderful and of course the ultimate highlight the 3 Lochs - Ness, Oich and Lochy and the majestic environment which we had the absolute pleasure of walking with an experienced guide. Walking the length of The Great Glen Way was an option rather than a must. I took the option of resting or walking a shorter distance when needed. Scotland you certainly made my heart sing. Huge thanks and appreciation to the crew.

Our group of 6 had an amazing time on this trip, the guides and staff were friendly and looked after all our needs, going above and beyond to make this a memorable trip. Our fellow travelers were a great bunch of people.

We had a wonderful time. The only thing I wasn't in love with was the day in Porto. I wish we had the option of free time. We spent 2 hours walking around and way too much time in the train station talking about tiles. I think we had 30 minutes at the end of the tour which wasn't enough time to get something to eat and/or shop. Joao is an excellent tour guide. He is very patient and very knowledgeable of the area.

You see a lot in a relatively short period of time which makes the trip a great quick introduction to popular areas and sites in Europe. For me I had been to a number of the cities previously but not for many years and really liked revisiting these cities and how some had changed. Be prepared for busy days and early mornings. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and very experienced and helpful with a great personality. The driver was excellent as it was very challenging in some of the streets which were narrow and difficult to maneuver.

Its jam packed! But a great sampler of Europe! Our tour guide and our driver had so much knowledge! They were the amazing duo! We really had a blast! The hotels and the sights were 1st class! The trip left us wanting more. All of the excursions were well planned. Thank you Trafalgar for a great trip!
