Creator's Key Takeaways
We've been on so many cruises, both as crew and as passengers, but we've never done this.
The imbarcation process on this river was probably the easiest and the quickest we've ever had.
The only thing that I'm not sure about at the moment is kind of what to do in the evening once we finished eating because the lounge is very small.
Everything from imbarcation to our meals to to booking things has all been really great.

After years of working on massive ocean liners, we thought we knew cruising... until we stepped onto a European River Cruise. 😱 Was switching to a smaller ship a huge mistake? Here is our honest take. In this video, we (Beth and Tony) share our unfiltered European River Cruise first impressions. We break down the biggest differences between River Cruises vs Ocean Cruises, including the cabin size, the daily schedule, and the ports. If you are used to mega-ships like we are, here is everything you need to know before booking your first river voyage. Join us as we embark the MS Viva Tiara (Viva Cruises) for a 4-day cruise on the Rhine River and the Main River in Germany. We have so many questions to answer in this video, including: - Are we too young? - Will our teens be welcome? - Is it a 'boat' or a 'ship'? - What's the food like? ... and more! Also - in this vlog we're using our new Level8 cases for the first time, and we really like them!
