Emerald Star – Food Glorious Food

Our cruise on Emerald Star started in Nuremberg and I have to say the mooring point for most river cruise ships here is not the most picturesque in the world to put it mildly, although the town itself looks really pretty.At least the sun was shining as we settled into our cabins and started our […]

All That Glitters Might Be Silver and a Bargain Cruise !

Relax on the Romantic Rhine

River cruising is becoming  increasingly popular, especially European Rivers and the Meekong. I have done many Nile River Cruises, during my time in Egypt, but never a European River – apart form an overnight in Amsterdam at the River Cruise Convention. Part of the attraction is that the ships are small, and excellent quality, meaning […]
