Panache

I felt like royalty on board the Panache. The attention to each passenger was wonderfully personalized with Miguel and Joanna remembering everyone's individual likes and needs. This is by far the best cruise, out of 12 with 6 different companies, I have been on. Mrs Sharon H

La Belle Epoque

We had very high expectations for our trip on the La Belle Epoque and they were EXCEEDED. What a great and very unique trip that was postponed from 2020 and 2021. We chartered the boat for ourselves and 10 close friends. The accommodations, excursions, food and especially the crew were all 5 stars. We recommend European Waterways highly. Mr Steven D

L’Impressionniste

The tour was very well-organized, and the crew could not have been nicer. We were told the food and wine would be excellent, but it all exceeded our expectations. The side trips were great as it was a delight to see the French countryside and to visit Beane and Dijon. Mr Donald N

Renaissance

They did everything well. From our pickup at our hotel, the reception when we first got on board. They could not do enough for us. Our room was fantastic, so much room that was unexpected. Breakfast lunch and dinner was over the top!! Selection of wines was also excellent. The excursions were another added treat. All the crew was magnificent; From the Captain, Hadrian, our gourmet chef, Hannah and the three other crew members, Rose, Bryan and Matt were great. We have been on several river cruises, but by far this was the best trip that we have taken. I would recommend it to everyone!! Mr Richard F

Enchante

10 STAR RATING! This trip was far and above our expectations. From booking our trip to the actual trip. I cannot say enough about the crew and staff. The meals prepared by the chef were fabulous with every meal a surprise. Our Captain kept us entertained with wonderful trips to breath taking ancient cities. The trips to the vineyards, olive groves and the Vinegar Factory were interesting and informative of the French farming and the producing of wonderful products. Six of us were friends and traveling together. We met new friends on board to make an intimate 8 passengers. My husband and I travel extensively and this was one of our very favourite trips. It was perfect in every way. Mrs Kay M

Rosa

We have never been pampered on a cruise like we were aboard the Rosa. Everyone on the staff made us feel at home and cared for. The food was amazing. We would recommend this experience for any new or seasoned traveller.

Scottish Highlander

The crew's attention to our every comfort was phenomenal! They were relaxed, easy to be with, answering questions and making it clear that we could help ourselves to all the amenities. They were knowledgeable about Scotland, the canals, and all the histories of the places we saw. Graham was a superb host, and Mike was an amazing chef whose cuisine was beautiful, plentiful, and delicious. I came away feeling Scotland was a gorgeous country, and that the Scots were among the friendliest people I had met! Mrs Susan S
