Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm not on the cruise that i thought i was gonna be on

i'm very very impressed my dessert was some kind of white chocolate mousse and once again it was a very small portion but for me it was enough

to think that this is the the quality that they offer it's just it's great

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Check your booking confirmation carefully to ensure you are on the correct itinerary (Mine vs. Rhine river)
โœ“Use travel industry discount websites for last-minute deals if eligible

Fear of hitting low bridges โ€” Crew manages clearance; guests may need to duck on top deck, but it is safe
Portion sizes being too small โ€” Small portions are rich and filling; it prevents waste and overeating

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

In August of 2022, I booked a 4 night river cruise on the MS Viva Tiara and after boarding was treated to a little surprise! In this video, we sailed away and began cruising down the Rhein / Rhine river from Frankfurt, Germany. The food, the sunset, the bridges, it was all just great! #rivercruise #cruiseship #germany www.viva-cruises.com (not sponsored or invited) Get my NEW BOOK!
