Each day felt like a new adventure, whether exploring vibrant ports, lounging by the pool, or enjoying live entertainment at night. The crew made us feel truly cared for, and the atmosphere was both fun and relaxing.

Upper and lower Rhineland-Palatinate were a disappointment but mid-Rhine a joy to the visual senses. Shore excursions were a disappointment but this was because of my mobility issues. Cologne to Amsterdam in 1vday was a sprint. Don't try to do the Rhine in 7 days . Would I travel Amadeus again? Definitely.

We saw beautiful scenery, relaxed all the time and enjoyed a wonderful time. Everything was very relaxed and the excursions enabled us to see things which really enriched the whole experience. On board the crew were so helpful and the food excellent. Being able to fly from a provincial airport and having door to door private transport made everything so easy. Now that we can start to travel again we can't wait to travel with Amadeus again.
