We booked a cruise and we booked again with Crui.se

We had a cruise booked in October 2025, which we were forced to cancel. We just re-booked the same cruise for April, 2027. Crui.se are an amazing agency. I worked with Rachel and Rebecca, two of the most experienced agents and two of the best! They fought for the most competitve all-inclusive fares, they communicate promptly, making the whole experience, a pleasure from beginning to end.

Hey Peter. We do love a 5 star review here at Crui.se but unfortunately we can't take the credit for your 'best cruise'. We're a cruise travel agent, not an operator. Maybe you meant to leave a review on a cruise lines profile? All the best.

Thanks for your review, Penelope. You've plenty of time before your Riviera Cruise next year so we hope you get a few holidays in between then and now. The Glacier Express Extension is a great choice. We'll be in touch. Thanks.

Customer service at its best.

From the very start the staff were so very knowledgeable and competent
and they answered all of my questions in a cheery and professional manner. We discussed all of the relevant issues for the trip and the booking was confirmed by email within the following 45 minutes. Nothing was too much trouble and my passport details were checked too. When one is served by a truly well-informed person it inspires confidence and satisfaction.

We have used this company before and as four elderly travellers we have found that they have listened to our various needs with great patience and made every effort to make sure that our travel arrangements are suitable for each of us. They put no pressure on us to make us feel rushed into making decisions. Couldn’t be more helpful.

Thanks for your lovely review and for booking your cruise with us again, Lillian. We're super grateful that you put your trust in us. Roll on July! You've booked a brilliant itinerary with Travelmarvel and you get to see so many capitals over two weeks. We can't wait to see the pictures afterwards. Happy Easter.

Rebecca was helpful and knowledgeable

Rebecca was helpful and knowledgeable. I had to pay in full given short time frame and not being sure of my credit limits, she helpfully suggested splitting the payment between two cards. Job done. I now await docs she mentioned but I have forgotten.

It sure was a rush to get you all confirmed yesterday, Simon, but we're glad we could secure your April cruise with AmaWaterways. A great deal on a beautiful itinerary. Not long now until you set sail. We'll be in touch with all the details beforehand. Have a great rest of the week.

90th birthday dream cruise

The experience with Carley was very easy, helpful, friendly and professional. I told her what I was looking for and she came back to me quickly with a couple of options. The option for this year (2026) was a great deal which I wouldn’t have been able to source without her help. I am now taking my Dad on the cruise of his dreams in his 90th year. Thanks Carley 🙏

Thanks so much for your booking and kind review, Shirley. We're delighted that Carley was able to help you book your Danube cruise in August with AmaWaterways. It'll be one to definitely remember and we're sure you'll have the trip of a lifetime. Big hi to your dad from us. All the best.

Thanks for booking your cruise with us, Julie. The Romantic Danube feels very apt this time of year! We can't wait until July when you set sail with AmaWaterways. Carley is of course available if you have any follow up questions. All the best.

Douro Valley River Cruise

I cannot recommend Crui.se highly enough and in particular Rachel one of their travel specialists. She was so professional and knowledgeable about the river cruise we’d chosen and helped us to decide on the operator to travel with. She researched all our options and came back to us as she’d promised with a superb itinerary that completely fulfilled our remit. She gave us excellent guidance on decks and type of rooms to pick and better still all at a very good price. I feel like she took a lot of pressure from us “‘to get it right’ and cannot thank her or recommend her highly enough. As a result we definitely won’t hesitate to use them again. Thank you Rachel.

Thanks for your booking and lovely review, Sue. Great choice on the Lisbon extension by the way. The Douro will be lovely in June and we're sure you'll have a brilliant time with Riviera Travel. The Riviera Rose is one of their new ships and the reviews have been excellent so far. If you need anything please let us know but we'll be in touch with more details closer to your departure date. Have a great weekend.

Rebecca of Crui.se.com

Rebecca of Crui.se.com was more than helpful. She scoured the available options and responded to each of my questions and requirements. In the end she came up with a cruise that I was not previously aware of but which suited all my
needs - the flights, the dates, the route, the cabin and the price. Well done all round!

Good stuff, Bill. We're glad that Rebecca could source what you were looking for and a really good price for a very popular solo cruise too. We're excited to hear how you get on with AmaWaterways on the Rhine in July. Please let us know in the meantime if we can do anything else for you. Have a good week.

Rachel really made the booking as easy as possible with her friendly manner . It’s not easy booking when you have 3 seniors going away . One of them my Mother of 92 years old .. taking her 1st river cruise . What I really appreciated from Rachel was her support and emails that arrived on time and phone calls . A realiable and honest experience and I can only highly recommend this company .

Thanks for your lovely review, Jennifer. Booking a river cruise isn't easy at the best of times to be honest and I'm glad Rachel was so helpful. We can't wait to hear about your mother trailblazing around the Danube in July. We know you'll have a wonderful time with AmaWaterways. If you need anything in the run up or have any special requests please let Rachel know and we'll do our best to sort. All the best.

First class experience

Never thought booking a cruise(when you have never done it before) could be so easy. Thanks to the amazing Rebecca. So knowledgeable, so helpful to firsttime novices.I am so reassured now about this wonderful trip she has found for us. She knew exactly what we wanted and on top of that found a top of the range deal to suit our budget. So grateful, thanks for all your hard work.

Excellent service

I came across Crui.se by accident when following a link to a river cruise that I was interested in. I was a bit sceptical about it being genuine at first. I left my details and later on that day received a call from Carley. The cruise I was interested in didn't fly direct from Scotland but Carley said that she could look to see who did. She asked what my budget was, when I wanted to go & what kind of accommodation I wanted. She said that she would look to see what was available and email me some quotes. Very shortly after I received said quotes to browse. By the time I'd dithered about emailing some further questions to Carley the date I was thinking of had gone. Carley then looked & found different dates for the same cruise. It was actually cheaper & had more cabin choice. I went ahead and booked & saved myself £260 compared to booking directly with the cruise company. This will be our first river cruise & if it goes as smoothly as the booking process it will be great. Carley was friendly, informative and there was no hard sell. Would definitely use again if booking another cruise.

What have we done to deserve a customer like you, Sybil? Wonderful review and great to hear about the full journey you've been on with Carley. You've picked a stunning itinerary for your first river cruise. You'll get to see Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna. It's like the ultimate multi-city break. We can't wait for July to see how you get on and in the meantime please let us know if you need anything. All the best.

Excellent Service - Highly Recommended

This is our first time booking a river cruise and we couldn't have found a more proffessional, knowledgable and friendly company. Rebecca has excellent knowledge of the river cruise companies and itineries and helped us with our selection & confidence to book our 2026 Christmas Cruise. Thank you to everyone at CRUI.SE we are very glad we found you & looking forward to our river cruise :)
