The job done by Tauck to deliver a trip of a lifetime was outstanding. The sights we saw and the excursions we experienced were exactly what we were expecting. What kept us going through the hot weather during the entire trip was that the Directors remained positive in spite of less than desirable weather conditions. Ship staff was perfect.
Most Memorable Moment:
The wine tasting excursions were times to be remembered for a lifetime. We had been in France before and did a trip to Champagne and visited a wine museum in Paris. This trip we experienced Burgundy and Cote de Provence as well as wines from less know wineries, specifically ones that are not exported to the US. Awesome
Our second Tauck river cruise, we loved every minute of this one! This tour was well paced with plenty of free time. The ship, Swiss Emerald has been freshly renovated, our cat 7 suite was spacious and totally enjoyed all the evening team trivia tournaments-more pl. Food was excellent but we would have liked more locally sourced food products
Most Memorable Moment:
Enjoyed going with the chef to local food markets and hearing them talk about different wines and foods of the region. Special shout out to the Tauck staff - they went out of their way to accommodate any request. Buses and bus drivers excellent!
