Saga Danube river cruise

#1

Post by Whynd1 »

Looking to try a river cruise next year, and Saga are offering no single supplements on specific cruises.
Has anybody done a Saga river cruise and if so would you recommend. Looking at 9 nights on the Danube.


Thanks
Lindsey

Lyndsey, we have not done a river cruise but we have cruised with Saga and were very pleasewd with them. They are more expensive than other cruise lines but, as they say, you get what you pay for. The staff and crew were marvellous and went out of their way to ensure a good holiday and a personal service. Hopefully somebody will have done a river cruise and can help you further.

You will also find that ' Titan ' offer riverboat cruises on Saga's ' exclusive use ' vessels, this arises because these two companies have recently-ish merged.

We will be cruising on the Regina Rheni II in the not too distant future so will be able to advise you of our findings.

Thank you both. I have been looking at Titan as well as have just read the review of your Christmas cruise mob.

The package has a lot going for it as they do a door to door pick up. I thought it would be nice to try something different and I am definitely getting very fed up of the high single supplemt swith P and O.

Good afternoon Lindsey.

I have cruised with Saga and rate them quite highly though never done a dedicated river cruise.

My experience on the Danube was with Viking. If you would like an insight into what it's like here is a link to a review I wrote...

Another great river cruise experience.

Couldn't agree more Oldbluefox.

And I just did: help further that is. :lol:
