Creator's Key Takeaways
We're still experiencing some low water in Budapest. and in that stretch of river between Bratislava and Budapest.
So, if you're on one of the larger river cruise ships such as the Alma Magna, just pay attention for any imbarcation or disembarkcation port changes.
Overall, the spring forecast so far is looking really good and I'm hopeful that all of you are going to have amazing river cruises this spring.
