Our cruise was promoted by Tauck as a "Small Group" tour. It turned out that we had 83 passengers on the MS Treasure that had a stated capacity of 104 maximum passengers. There were 3 Tour Directors and a Cruise Director. They were very effective in making sure our land excursions were in small groups as advertised. The staff and crew were all very pleasant and communicated well. The meals were varied and well prepared and the kitchen accommodated special requests. There was nightly entertainment even if on many evenings it was Daniel, the dedicated musician, playing his piano and instruments solo (he is very talented). It was a comfortable, enjoyable, and educational two-week cruise.
Pros: The amenities are very appropriate for the number of passengers. Some of the cabins are very generous in size and layout.
Cons: Not much to be negative about

Everyone treated us so well.. very friendly and taking care of our every need, The food was delicious, the excursions well organized and very enjoyable, The staterooms were good sized and very comfortable. I loved having only 85 people on the boat. Never felt crowded. Having tips and drinks included was a real plus!
Pros: Everything included in price-drinks and tips
Cons: More expensive than other lines

Cruise Directors Nick Coward and Jen are as good as it gets. We were very surprised and pleased with all but one of the entertainment groups that joined the ship for a brief demonstration (glass blowing)/ Lecture (about the Main-Danube Canal) as well as the musical groups. Just one duo (guitar/singer) was below excellent. On-board entertainment by Rui was just wonderful--what a spirit and he made everything fun. The Vienna special dinner and entertainment was superb: just WOW. The servers in the restaurant and bar were helpful and upbeat. Our room steward was a gem. The Captain's tour of the bridge was a very nice plus.
Pros: Tauk's attention to every detail; The crew made it a "happy ship;" The entertainment was superb and plentiful; We met wonderful fellow passengers; The ship is gorgeous and our cabin was spectacular.
Cons: Next time don't do the Faber Castell trip in Nurnburg, but take us to the Dokument Centrum.

Tauck really takes care of every detail. This is our 2nd Tauck river cruise and I would highly recommend this company for your vacation. The tours off of the ship are always well organized and very informational. The staff is top notch. Food on board the ship is wonderful, as they have a very large variety for all likes and dislikes. The ship is always clean and up to date. Our room was extremely comfortable.

Tauck takes care of everything and they do it so well. We felt so pampered and cared for throughout our two week cruise. Fabulous food. Talented Local entertainment. Interesting talks about history and culture and of course all of the amazing scenery to photograph. The cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam is a once in a lifetime experience and Tauck was the right choice to make that happen in the most memorable way. Thanks.
Pros: Everything is already taken care of so just show up and enjoy
Cons: Cannot think of one except it had to end after two weeks
