Beware of the cabins on the lower deck towards the stern: sleepless nights guaranteed.

Cruise on the Rhine Croisieurope MS MONET from June 9 to June 13, 2026. Everything was good: welcome, meals, atmosphere, onboard services, teams, excursions, except that I was not informed that my cabin 102, the last one on the lower deck, was in the engine room. Summary: 3 sleepless nights out of 4. Impossible to close an eye, even with earplugs, when the boat sails at night. Unbearable noise from the engines and vibrations. Absolutely avoid all cabins with a number lower than 110. Excursion timing needs to be reviewed: too much downtime compared to the duration of the visit.

Madame monsieur, nous ne sommes pas Croisi Europe mais Bateau Alsace ! Vous vous trompez de société, nous avons de petits bateaux pour des sorties de 7 personnes dans Strasbourg et non de gros bateau de croisière sur le Rhin. Merci de retirer votre avis qui ne nous concerne pas du tout ! Nous n’avons même pas une seule cabine à bord alors comment voulez vous passer une seule nuit sur notre bateau !

Best walking tour I have ever had!

This was without question the best walking tour I’ve ever taken, and I’ve been on many across Europe. Our guide, Nathalie, was absolutely outstanding—knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly passionate about Strasbourg. She answered every question with depth and insight, but what set her apart was how she connected all of it into a larger story. The city’s history, culture, and architecture didn’t just come as isolated facts—they became a living, breathing narrative. She pointed out architectural details we would have walked past without noticing, weaving in anecdotes that gave them meaning. At the same time, she balanced the history with practical touches, like recommending where to eat and what else to explore afterward. Everything felt thoughtful, personal, and genuinely useful. Most importantly,Nathalie's love of Strasbourg came through in everything she shared. You could tell this wasn’t just a job for her; it was a joy to open up the city to visitors. That energy made the experience unforgettable. If you want a tour that is informative, entertaining, and leaves you feeling connected to Strasbourg in a way that guidebooks can’t, this is the one. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Highly recommended- wonderful boat and captain!

Our family of 4 (children ages 8 and 10) had a perfect tour of Strasbourg by boat. Cedric was an amazing captain and host and we were made to be extremely comfortable on a very cozy boat despite some less-than perfect weather. It was wonderful to learn more about the buildings and town but also just a relaxing way to spend a few hours.

A big thank you to Cédric for this wonderful walk.

We did not know Strasbourg from this angle. We knew Cédric in other circumstances with another job. It was a gift given by our children. A big and warm thank you to them and especially to Cédric.

Fantastic!

We scheduled a boat ride with Captain Cedric for our first evening in Strasberg. The tour did not disappoint. Hearing history of the area, watching swans swimming with their young, enjoying a charcuterie board and experiencing Cedric’s contagious joy, made for a perfect evening. Worth the money, go privately on a very comfortable small ski type boat and if you are a weary traveler, be refreshed. Fantastic!!

Unforgettable cruise in Strasbourg

A moment of pure happiness! We discover the exceptional heritage of Strasbourg along the water, in the calm, far from the hustle and bustle of the streets. Our guide's explanations are relevant, with a touch of humor. Memorable experience that I highly recommend
