I called customer service on the Monday morning after we got home and was assured as no-one was available to speak to me I would get a phone call as soon as someone was available,that was a week ago and still no one has called me back ,,I filled out a survey whilst on holiday so my complaints should be on record,,it would be common courtesy to have a reply from you but after waiting a week I don't think that is going to happen,,,I will seriously consider booking with you again

This trip has the potential to be so much better especially for those with mobility problems Some of the excursions we’re long with far too lengthy breaks in mainly services areas The drivers were exceptional as was our local guide in Hungary the evening excursion was not explained by the cruise staff and what should have been a wonderful evening was cut short because we had dinner on the ship which we feel was not needed The two cruise staff members were dreadful condescending explanations of events not at all helpful to some guests The ship and crew we’re great food excellent and we were very happy with our hotels The trip from Austria to home was so long and only made bearable by the drivers perhaps an additional stop somewhere in time for dinner and relaxation would be beneficial This trip is expensive and whilst we visited some lovely places this is not a holiday we would want to repeat
