Visited some beautiful places on this tour with spectacular scenery. Train travel was easy but a bit unreliable at times. Hotel Pinger very pleasant with friendly staff and very close to the station. Food was fine and the free wine and beer was great. (Hotel could do with a ground floor toilet) The Rhine cruise was a highlight and we were lucky with the weather. Places were very quiet as it was almost out of season. We were well looked after by our guide and it was a really enjoyable holiday.

Travel there and back satisfactory. Arrangements for each day varied but mostly okay. Hotel rooms were basic. Hotel breakfast was good and lunch arrangements okay. Evening meal (dinner?) was abysmal - very little choice, the same dessert every evening - no vegetables except potatoes and sauerkraut (once).The only consolation was a free bar.

Pleasant tour but with a few reservations. Enjoyed visits to Linz, Rudesheim, Königswinter and Cochem. Nice friendly Tour Manager, Wendy. Mixed feelings on Pinger Hotel. Easy access to station but that also meant our room at front was very noisey. Trains run 24/7 so no chance of leaving a window open plus there was deliberate noise from boy racers revving engines & sounding horns! Triple glazing might solve this. Rooms are very basic with no carpets meaning people in rooms above woke us at 5am every day thumping around. No carpet in hallway meant noisey feet that echoed. Poor lighting meant difficult to see lock meaning people again making noise fumbling to unlock their doors. There was a very shower though and BBC1 & BBC2 on the TV! Unfortunately we would not book another holiday that stayed at the Pinger.
