From the Main to Switzerland Cruise Review

“This is my third ever cruise but my first with Saga and let me just say that this has been the best of the lot. I know a lot of people tend to go on cruises with their partners and such but take it from me, you can have just as much fun on your own. I got to make some new friends and I loved the walking activities, I even bought some souvenirs while I was out in Strasbourg. Loved, loved, loved this cruise, I’ll definitely be back next year with Saga.”
