What Mrs Victoria Coughlin said about European Waterways:
Celtic sail through culture.
Our package for cruise info was in the mail after we got home. There was no confirmation of hotel pick up time until we emailed the company ourselves for the info.

Dear Mrs Coughlin, thank you very much for providing your service feedback, following your cruise aboard the Shannon Princess. We're very sorry to hear you didn't receive your cruise wallet and vouchers until after you had returned home. This is an unusual occurrence and likely the result of a delay with the international postal service. We will be sure to pass your feedback re email communication with the relevant team - thank you for raising this.

Dear Trusted Customer, thank you very much for taking the time to provide your honest feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed your time on board and we hope the following clarifies on any confusion: As your initial enquiry was for a cruise two years in the future, I'm afraid our team were unable to confirm availability at that stage. However, please rest assured you were at the top of our waitlist for the team to update you when the calendar opened up for your specified barge. Understandably, you then enquired about La Nouvelle Etoile, whose calendar was also yet to open up - which we appreciate caused further wait times. We understand that the back-and-forth over several months felt frustrating, and we’re very sorry for any confusion during that period. We're also looking into how we can improve the timing of our disembarkation details to better support onward travel, and we appreciate you flagging this. We do hope to welcome you back on board with us in the future!

What Chris P. Lewis said about European Waterways:
Bucket list checked!!! Small barge tour in France!! YOLO!!!
Everything was well thought out and all details were better than expected. Our room was actually bigger then the one we stayed at in our hotel in Paris.
