We are not the target age group for this cruise. It is 21-40+ year olds and we are well outside that age group! So... the decor of the ship is lovely. Modern velvets, marble, mirrors, racy prints down the hallways, cozy chairs, a rooftop ice bar and all communications via Whatsapp. Cabins and bathrooms tiny but restaurant spacious and great modern food served twice a day not three times. Brunch times varied according to port times. Dinner was st 7pm. All day coffee machine available and snacks from a coin operated machine.
There was a photo booth free in the small foyer shop. Guest DJ’s some nights in lounge. Blue tooth available in cabin and plenty of power and computer outlets. Our itinerary did not follow the published itinerary which was odd. Many excursions on bicycles but some hosted walks too. We chose this river cruise because of the time frame and itinerary and took some of the more adventurous tours which were great fun. It’s a cruise for active people and I think they are going to market a little differently to include a wider age group.

In such cases, they will do everything they can to make sure the locations visited, the excursions taken, and the vessels offered are similar to the ones originally planned.
