Went on the Budapest to Amsterdam River cruise a few years ago. Wonderful. There are many all fares items included with the river cruises, ie: drinks, speciality coffees and excursions which you would not receive with an ocean cruise. This is probably why the river cruises are more expensive than the ocean cruises. Loved seeing Amsterdam again on your vlog.

Good tip on taking a picture of the Suitecase. Could you do Royal Oasis of the Seas next? So you can investigate why they don't have a tea kettle in every room. A travesty really.

We loved Amsterdam as well. Unfortunately we can take several ocean cruises for the price of an Avalon river cruise so I doubt we’ll ever experience river cruising. That ship that pulled up next to you during your meal was crazy close. I think I would have jumped up from my seat if I saw that 😂. Love watching you guys and can’t wait to see more.
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel Год назад
River cruising is definitely more expensive that Ocean however late deals can be had too! They do get so close but that add to the experience too! Thanks so much for watching!

Enjoyed this to see how it compared to ours last week. So with you on the balsamic and olive oil, we loved it! Was looking forward to the honey on ours but we didn’t seem to have it 😢 assuming it must have run out on the previous cruise and as we were on the final cruise of the season they didn’t want to start another as that would end up being wasted.

Amsterdam is great, we were there in September on Tauck Rhine cruise, our third trip there. If you want to go to the Ann. Frank house you need to get tickets on the first Tuesday proceeding the month you want to go. I recommend taking the train to Haarlem. It’s about 12 minutes, easy ride to a quaint old city. There’s a beautiful massive cathedral, a great brewery in an old church and the tenBoom house where a family helped Jews hide during WWll . Oh and an old windmill.

Thanks for another fantastic vlog Paul and Carole 🤩 Avalon looks like a fantastic river cruise line - we've never seen so much honeycombe in one place, let alone at a breakfast buffet! We love Amsterdam as well! And that truly is an incredible chip shop 😍 We had some before our baltic cruise on Koningsdam (which we hadn't expected to fit sailing out of Amsterdam but just about fit! Much like Joe getting in his DJ at the end of a cruise 🤣). Looking forward to watching the rest of the series 😀
