The worst thing that can happen on a river cruise just happened to me. Low water levels on the Danube brought my CroisiEurope cruise from Vienna to the Black Sea to a grinding halt in Romania. Here's the full story of what went wrong, how the cruise line handled it, and the Ryanair disaster that followed.
In this video, I take you through:
• The moment we discovered the Danube water levels were too low to continue
• How CroisiEurope managed the crisis and rerouted our journey
• What happened to our planned visit to Constanța on the Black Sea
• Whether this impacted my onward travel plans
• The chaotic Ryanair flight experience getting back to the UK
If you're planning a European river cruise, this is essential viewing. Low water levels are becoming more common, and you need to know what to expect.
