This video gives a useful guide to things you should know about European river cruises in general:

Note: many Rhine cruises start in Basel. Please build in some time to visit my city!

We may not want to go on every tour; we may want to sleep in and have breakfast at a later time; we may not want a 4-course dinner each night, but a snack elsewhere on the ship. Which cruise lines would give us this flexibility, we wondered. More research for us.

With several comments here and on other threads about the Danube, this is interesting.

Fantastic video! We were aware of water level issues and boats tying up beside each other, but it was the word "regimented" that caused us to sit back!

Update: We eliminated Tauck due to no balconies and not visiting Budapest. We're considering Viking and AMA - getting quotes for each, and then adding our own before and after trips to include Berlin and Krakow. We'll let you know which we choose.

We have narrowed our options for a river cruise on the Rhone to Tauck, Uniworld and Scenic. We are interested opinions on food, excursions, staterooms and any other helpful hints. We have done many ocean cruises but this will be our first river cruise.
