We didn't go on the Worms Tour it was sold out during our cruise. I have to say that Speyer was very enjoyable. That Tek Museum was completely unique and surprising. So from what I know I'd have done the same thing if I had the option.

Makes sense to do a Hop-on Hop-off tour in Paris. You can control a lot more of your experience that way. The video I am working on now is when we were in Paris and went through the Palace of Versailles. It was truly amazing... but very busy. Controlling your tours is a good idea right now, especially with the Olympics, never know what is changed/closed or completely new.

Glad it was helpful! What was funny about this cruise is how much my wife was against cruises... hated the thought of being on a boat locked in with a bunch of people we don't know. Now? She says it was the best vacation we've ever taken, loved the ship, the staff, the food, the people (with a few exceptions(grin)), and the locations. Enjoy your trip! Can't wait to hear how it goes for you.

Thank you so much for the video! I have been looking for one about the Swiss Alps excursion. It looks to be a long ride there and back. Are there many stops along the way? Hoping it's not just a long bus ride. Thanks again!

Hello Denise! I loved that excursion, probably my favorite. There were a couple stops along the way. They were in spots I found to be absolutely gorgeous... like quintessentially Switzerland type gorgeous. We got in the front seats (by getting to the bus very early) so we could capture some of the most interesting parts of the bus ride.

We heard the Zermatt Extension was awesome, the Blackforest Excursion... not so good. We went on all of the included excursions when we didn't have another one scheduled, really glad we did. The Montemorte Hill one was sold out, so we went on the Palace of Versailles one, it was very crowded... but glad we went on it. Can't wait to make that video, such good video from that place.

@@OwnRareTravel I've only been to Europe twice and raced around trying to see everything while doing nothing justice. Most of the places I went are well-known, but one that wasn't was Helsinki, Finland. Almost everyone spoke English. It's clean and very easy to navigate. Also pretty much everywhere in the Netherlands is easy to train, bike, or walk. I'm anxious to watch more of your work.

The excursion looks amazing. How much walking/hiking was there to get to the top and then back down? We are trying to decide between this trip and the Rhine Getaway. I'm curious how much of the 10 hour excursion is spent hiking uphill.
@OwnRareTravel
@OwnRareTravel 26 күн бұрын
Yes that was an absolutely fantastic excursion. There was some walking but not a lot. We did walk around Brienz for about 30 minutes, no major grades. On the highest part of the mountain we walked to the restaurant and to the train station, no more that 10 minutes or so. Up there you could choose to walk up some pretty steep areas if desired.

Fantastic trip, highly recommend! We did take Viking Air, for us it worked out perfectly. We were in room 104 in the duck view and had no issues. We did bring a white noise maker so that even if there was additional noise we would not be impacted by it. For us, we spent every moment out in the ship social areas that the room didn’t matter to us. I wish we would have done the Alps Extension. I heard that was amazing from the people on board that took it. My wife and I ate most dinners in the Aquivite Lounge rather than the large dining room. Worked well for us, just get there a little early when you want a private table for 2.
