So true! We sailed Skyla in 2022 and 2023, the north and south Danube cruises and thoroughly enjoyed both trips. On both we were the only Americans onboard and enjoyed our British counterparts and all of their different accents. Food, entertainment and tours were great. All Staff were friendly and very professional. Incredibly it was within our budget to fly premium economy from the states to Heathrow, stay overnight in a hotel, catch our TUI flights and river cruise and then return home. All this was cheaper than booking a cruise on one of those premium cruise companies. We like the small passenger count, smooth sailing and, did I already mention this, the wonderful food. Especially breakfast in the Bistro (limitless coffee and cookie station too). Looking at an Amsterdam to Basil trip in 2025. Thanks for the site Kelly and best wishes for the future.
Aw I'm so happy to hear that! That's the itinerary we always recommended to people who asked what to do next - even though we'd never been on it! Hope you're able to make it happen :)
very helpful! the ranking of escursions would be handy - we're mostly happy to wander around ourselves (and visit pubs/food/shopping places over churches) so be good to see which are recommended (the vienna one seems good value for 4 hours as a starting point, when we are there for 2 days)
Aw thanks! I have actually filmed a video about the excursions already and it should be going up in about two weeks or so, but spoiler alert - I definitely recommend the Vienna City Tour 😅
Hi Kelly thanks for the video very helpful. My husband and I have done many ocean cruises but are booked on our first river cruise end November. We are on the TUI Isla for the five day Mistletoe and Rhine cruise. Two questions I hope you can answer. Is it possible to get taxis/Ubers from where the ships dock? And is any if the cruising done during the day or all at night? Thank you.
Hiya! Oh how lovely, enjoy! You can usually get Taxis/Ubers from where the ship docks, and often reception will be able to give you a number for a reliable taxi company (although not always). It does depend a little bit where you are as sometimes it may be in the middle of nowhere but usually it's not a problem and regardless of where you are reception can usually help you. On the winter cruises, the ships usually only sail at night and there is very little (if any) daytime sailing, so I probably wouldn't count on it, sorry! Hope that helps 😊
Many thanks. I don’t think cruising at night will bother us too much as it’s a winter cruise. If we enjoy it we plan to do one next year in the summer. Cost has been a stumbling block in the past to trying a river cruise but TUI has made it possible. We don’t need the bells and whistles just the basics are fine with us. Thank you for your help.
