auf dem Douro mit Arosa Alva

Schöne Kreuzfahrt auf dem Fluss Douro an Bord der A-Rosa Alva. Das Schiff war sehr schön, ich habe den Panoramasalon mit Blick auf die Landschaft sehr genossen. Durchschnittliche Küche mit portugiesischen Spezialitäten. Alle Mahlzeiten wurden als Buffet serviert. Komfortable Kabinen mit allem Komfort ausgestattet, Sauberkeit war auch gut. An Bord wird Englisch und Deutsch gesprochen, so dass die Verständigung mit dem Personal einfach ist. Die Abendunterhaltung begleitete uns mit dem Piano. Schöne und befriedigende Reiseroute. Alles in allem eine gute Erfahrung mit A-Rosa Flusskreuzfahrten.
