Tauck Savoring France River Cruise

May

Pros: Elegant and comfortable boat; staff is attentive and friendly; delicious and varied menus; and excursions are above and beyond what we have experienced with other river cruises.

Cons:

Recommended: Yes

Our previous sailings have been with Viking and in the future we will consider Tauck first. Our hotel stay in Paris was very luxurious, and we throughly enjoyed our cooking class at Cordon Bleu. Once on the boat, the Tauck staff and Emerald crew were fantastic. The ship is well appointed and comfortable. We enjoyed meeting and dining with the other guests. Excursions were varied and most interesting. Efforts were made on ship for activities, and the menus were varied and delicious.

Paris to Monaco

June

Pros: Loved the trip

Cons: Lousy room at the Fairmont Hotel in Monaco. Not the typical room offered on a Tauck trip.

Recommended: Yes

When we asked about changing our room, we were told there would be an up charge of 150 euros. Not acceptable !!

French Waterways Riverboat

May

Pros: This was our third riverboat trip with Tauck and was not only a typical Tauck trip that is well run, great staff and service it was an enjoyable and memorable experience.

Cons: I would have to make something up, which would mean I am not ever happy about anything. Cannot see how one would complain about the trip.

Recommended: Yes

We have utilized Tauck for many years and started with them at the recommendation of our travel agent Whirlaway Travel after a disastrous experience with another company. This was our eighth Tauck trip with number nine scheduled for October of this year. While we have looked at other vendors I cannot think of any reason to change unless there was someplace we really really wanted to go to that Tauck did not offer. We have several bucket list trips to go which as far as we can anticipate I They will be with Tauck.
