cmthomas Posted January 14, 2005 #2 Share Posted January 14, 2005 Hi Beverly, We took a river cruise from Antwerp to Basel in late September of last year. Prior to going there was concern expressed about low water levels. During the trip we had not a single problem with low water --- but that is not to say that it doesn't occur. In the Spring there is occasionally a problem with high water that causes problems with some of the ships getting under low bridges. You just never know as far in advance as you must make reservations. I would just go ahead with your plans and whatever will be, will be. It is a wonderful experience on the river and I am sure you will enjoy it. I wrote a detailed diary that is posted below under Antwerp to Basel on the River Harmony. Probably more than you want to know! Clarence:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
