Not what we expected disappointed.

Was expecting this experience to be the highlight of our trip to Vienna, it was not. You spend a high proportion of your time on board, getting out off, and returning via the lock to the mooring point on the canal. Our main coarse chicken was dry, and one of our party had to return her meal because it was off. Starter and soup along with dessert fine. Very little to see on the section of the Danube we travelled along, I believe we went under two to three bridges before turning. The best part was returning along the canal which was a hive of activity with all the bars lit up, music playing, and patrons dancing a great sight. (It was a Friday night).

Operator response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations and was not the highlight of your visit to Vienna as you had hoped. The cruise route, including the passage through the lock system and the selected section of the Danube Canal, is operated according to the itinerary provided by the local operator and is designed to showcase a different perspective of the city. We sincerely apologize for the issue you experienced with one of the meals. Food quality is very important, and we regret that one member of your party received a dish that was not satisfactory. We appreciate that the onboard team addressed the matter when it was reported. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the return journey through the canal and the vibrant atmosphere of Vienna's waterfront nightlife. The illuminated bars, music, and lively surroundings are often among the most memorable parts of the evening cruise experience. Your comments are valuable and will be shared with the operating team to help improve future guest experiences. Kind regards,

Great Cruise with Slight Hiccup

Overall the cruise was delightful: good food, nice crew, lovely ride. My only complaint is that there was confusion about the meeting place. It was not where Viator originally said it would be. I had to download WhatsApp to communicate with the vendor.
