Martin Sharples
5 stars
“A good mix of excursions and river cruising on a very good vessel. Amadeus crew and food were excellent. If I wanted to be picky I'd say that the contract staff meeting us at the airport were poor and gave incorrect information. It would also be better if GRJ had...

John Gadsby
4 stars
“Really excellent river cruise, fantastic value, the reason it's not 5 star was the train journeys, which were all late and chaotic, (not GRJ's Fault) although they bought the tickets they are not responsible (apparently) for the late trains, the Eurostar back for Paris was 2 hours late and meant...
