Creator's Key Takeaways

I love river cruising. This is my third river cruise. If I had to choose between ocean cruising and river cruising, it would be river cruising every single time because of the intimate experience.

This is such a different experience than an ocean cruise because these are small ships. There's only 200 passengers on boardish 200 to 300 passengers.

The food is very good, too. Do not let the fact that it's a buffet confuse you. This is excellent food.

I love how the buildings all match except for the very very new ones. But you can see they're all kind of white or an off-white with orange roofs. It's just beautiful.
