floridatoucan Posted May 21, 2007 Author #3 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Thank you for your answer. My parents have their cruise booked but are looking for any must sees in those ports which are the ports their vessel will call on. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagrape Posted May 21, 2007 #4 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Ports visited will depend on the ship and date you pick up. If you look at the given site on River Cruise, they will show ports visited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacmom Posted May 23, 2007 #5 Share Posted May 23, 2007 If you post this question on the River cruise board, you are more likely to get some good answers. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare steamboats Posted May 23, 2007 #6 Share Posted May 23, 2007 flordiatoucan, Check my review (MS Mozart) linked in my signature. I have a lot of helpful links in there (although DH forgot to "link" them so you can´t click on them but have to copy/paste the links). I´m also trying to find another thread I´ve posted with information about a couple of towns along the Danube river. steamboats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unberwoob Posted May 23, 2007 #7 Share Posted May 23, 2007 A must see for me may not be so for another person. Go to your library or bookstore and read the Insight Guides Great River Cruises. It will detail all ports of call on all the European rivers. Also, the cruise line will send you information on all the ports and tours. And of course, read all the guidebooks available on these places, then they can make decisions on what they want to do and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CincyAL Posted May 30, 2007 #10 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I think you will enjoy the trip if very minute is not planned by a guide book. Take a walk into town without the group in the afternnon or evening. Stop and drink a beer or have a glass of wine some place that apeals to you and not the guidebook. Seat on a bench and do some people watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magmorr75219 Posted May 30, 2007 #11 Share Posted May 30, 2007 We really enjoyed the castle ruins in Durnstein. Great views, although it's a hike to get to them. We found it well worth it. There's so much to see in Vienna. There probably won't be enough time to see everything you'd want to there. Same for Budapest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
