Good day Kinda, my name is Aura ..nice to e-meet you. Thank you for your great video. Very informative. Quick question ...do you know how many steps there are to get up to the Sun deck from Cello? And from room 230...do we have to walk to the aft of the ship to get upstairs or are there more than one staircase? Thank you.

Hi Aura, nice to e-meet you too! Thank you for watching the video! There are approx 12 steps to get from the lobby area exits (a set of staircases on each side) up to the Sun deck (plus there are also steps at the aft of the ship too) so you can access from either set of staircases. Any other questions, just let me know! Kind regards, Linda

@@Therivercruiselady Thank you Linda. Good to know. Cruising with my 90 years young Mom and trying best to gauge how she will get around. Hoping some excursions off the ship will be 'seated'...I know there's a lot of walking but thinking I could rent a separate driver/taxi type to tour all the beautiful areas. Thank you again Linda for any tips. Much appreciated! Aura

@@aurafruitman6381 You're welcome and wow, good for you Mom - that's so great to hear she will be travelling with you! Just another thought, if you look at the Danube itineraries for the AmaMagna (it can't do the Rhine because of its width) that might work better for your Mom as their elevator goes all the way up to the Sun Deck so no need for stairs!

TheRiverCruiseLady Thanks, Linda! This is our first cruise, so we shall see how it goes. We chose Crystal. Booked through an acquaintance, but he has not given me half the info that you lay out so generously on your videos. I wish that I had found you before we decided. And, you sound Canadian (we are dual...but grew up in Canada)...so that is also awesome. If we like this trip, and decide on another, I will definitely contact you directly! Cheers.

@Therivercruiselady6 жыл бұрын
Thank you teauraki, I think it depends what kind of device you listen to it on. With most computers it seems fine but the tablets and phones, not so good. KZbin used to let us edit existing videos but now we are not able to do that anymore so I either leave it up as is or remove so have chosen to leave up for now as still a good visual even without the sound.

I just came back from doing the Star Pride alone. It was fine as so many couples and groups invited me to join them - plus the staff was endlessly chattering to me. I'd gone for a rest and found myself craving time to myself! Their website says they're waiving single supplement for rest of 2017 - short notice but just a thought for you.

I am really thinking about doing a river cruise on Avalon for 13 days leaving Amsterdam to Budapest. However, I notice that to select the 2nd floor cost a lot more than the above water level. I did some research and found that Avalon received the best reviews than any other river cruise ship. Thanks for the sharing your video

ELLEN PRIDGEN Your welcome Ellen and thanks for watching! It was a fantastic trip and I always say to my clients that the cabins on the higher decks with a French balcony provide you a better experience since you can open them to look out over the river, however if it means the difference of taking the trip or not, then book the lower category as you will enjoy the itinerary so much. All the best and drop me a line if you ever have any more questions. Kind regards, Linda
