Rare HBCcruiser Posted April 14, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Going on this cruise in May 2018 with my mom. It's our first river cruise. Any insights or suggestions for this cruise? Anyone do a Tauck cruise before? Thanks in advance! Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuiteTraveler Posted April 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Oh my! What a lovely cruise you are going on! Well, my biggest advice is to enjoy it! These river cruises take care of you so well and everything is pre-programmed, so you will not have to worry about a thing. On the first afternoon, they will hold a meeting where they will explain to you how things work and what to expect. I think the main thing is to take some time to relax during the trip. It is very tempting to be go-go-go all the time, but it really is important to have some downtime, otherwise, you may need a vacation from your vacation! Since you are going to Versailles, I recommend that you watch the TV series Versailles - it will really bring this to life for you. http://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/versailles/episodes/875186/ There is a musical night fountain show at Versailles in the garden and they usually have fireworks afterwards - it's quite spectacular. After you watch the TV show (or if you have already watched it) I'm sure this show will have more significance to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted April 15, 2017 #4 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Yes, that is a lovely itinerary -- and it's clear from the website description that Tauck is doing everything de luxe. I have read about terrible crowds at Versailles, but my guess is that if anyone can find a way around that it will be Tauck. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
