I Tried a BUDGET River Cruise and It Wasn't What I Expected

Description from YouTube

I’ve just disembarked a European river cruise on a cruise line that cost around 1/3rd of most other river cruise lines, it was a very eventful cruise in lots of ways and a few very odd things did happen. While I was looking at Christmas cruises recently (yep Christmas, it actually isn't very far away) I came across some veeeeery affordable Christmas market river cruises. 😁😊 They're literally half the price of other river cruise lines. If you're interested in the Christmas River cruises, you'll find those here: tui-uk.7cnq.net/eKE10X (Affiliate link). 🎄🙂 Normally if you want to take a European river cruise you’re looking at £300, £400 pounds per night. Some cost £1000 per night but I paid less than that for an entire week, including flights, cruising on the Danube with TUI staying in a superior balcony cabin. Check out TUI river cruises here: https://tui-uk.7cnq.net/ZdvRER (affiliate link) I’ve taken river cruises in the past on the more luxurious lines but when TUI announced that they were starting river cruising I hoped that TUI would be the answer to river cruising on a budget. 00:00 - Introduction 00:11 - Why Did I Book This Cruise? 00:39 - What Did Our Cruise Include? 01:06 - My Pre Cruise Concerns 01:36 - First Impressions 02:02 - What is The TUI Skyla Like? 03:05 - Are River Cruises Wheelchair Friendly? 03:29 - River Ships Dock Side by Side 04:01 - What Are River Cruise Cabins Like? 05:07 - What’s it Like to Have a Cabin Below The Waterline? 05:46 - One of my Least Favourite Things About The Cabin 06:03 - How Many Plug Sockets Are There on TUI River Ships? 06:23 - Were Dining Times Fixed? 07:20 - When Was Breakfast? 07:48 - What Were The Crew Like? 08:58 - This Ship Was Electric (Literally) 09:32 - What Was Our Itinerary? 10:07 - What Drinks Are Included? 11:08 - Setting Sail From Budapest 11:29 - The Problem With Our Bathroom 12:52 - Docking in Bratislava, Slovakia 13:16 - Our Air Conditioning Didn’t Work 14:13 - How Was Feedback Taken? 14:24 - What Did We Do in Bratislava? 15:16 - Are River Cruise Schedules Fixed? 15:42 - When do River Cruise Ships Dock? 16:03 - Whats The Dress Code? 16:37 - How We Got an Upgrade 17:33 - What Capacity Was The Ship at? 18:45 - What Were The Walking Tours Like? 19:08 - How do You Listen to The Guide? 19:31 - Can You Get WiFi on a River Cruise? 20:41 - Do TUI Have an App? 21:14 - Are River Cruises Boring? 22:20 - My Favourite Excursion 23:06 - What is Going Through a Lock Like? 23:52 - Which Other Ships Did we See? 24:29 - What Was The Food Like? 26:20 - How Many Restaurants Were Onboard? 26:45 - How Old Were The Other Guests? 28:29 - What Did The Other Guests Think? ▶ Stay up to date: http://EmmaCruises.com/News ▶ Let's get you on a cruise!: https://EmmaCruises.com/Book-a-Cruise/ *** ▶ Background World Map (Use Code EMMACRUISES For a Discount): https://enjoythewood.com/emmacruises ▶ Daylight Lamp: https://emmacruises.com/lamp ▶ Don't make the WORST CRUISE MISTAKE: https://emmacruises.com/cruise-travel-insurance-why-you-need-it-and-how-to-get-it-step-by-step-guide/ 🥳🥳 emma@emmacruises.com Join this channel to get access to exclusive perks like a weekly podcast and early ad free access to videos: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCu4C8c3h9SKdkxnOwIAiHeA/join
