Amstersdam Spring Cruise 10th-14th April 2008.
Our cruise was a great success in celebrating my 60th birthday. We were forwarned that there may not be any other Brits on board which did not worry us at all. It was a surprise to find ourselves amongst the rest of the party on board who were all French!!
We have all cruised before on larger ships. The Victor Hugo cruise was rated 3 star but it felt more 4 star with excellent staff and accommodation and the food was a 5 star rating. There was no choice of menu but each meal was beyond expectation and very well presented. The french crew were friendly and made special efforts to include us in all the aspects of cruise life.
We all came away feeling we would like to experience more river cruises especially if the standards remain as high as we experienced.
