We are frequent international travelers who like to make our own travel plans and move at our own pace. Prior to traveling with Teeming, our river cruise experience was limited to one cruise with Viking and it was a good one. Viking will pretty much get you from your front door on the boat, all the excursions and back to your front door. All that comes with a price and for those of us who like to do a little research, travel at our own pace, not in a herd following someone with an umbrella, Teeming works best. There is no mystery in booking airline tickets and hotels. English, to some degree, is spoken and understood in most countries. How does Teeming work? They lease ships with crew from established cruise companies during the travel shoulder season, so you get the same great experience and food as you would expect with any river cruise. The entertainment on some riverboat ships is what I would describe as formal, with Teeming, I found the atmosphere to be fun and more relaxed. The main difference is, the Teeming passenger is responsible for getting on the ship prior to sailing. At the end of the sail, the Teeming team made taxi arrangements to get each passenger to their next destination, whether it be hotel or airport. Is it worth it? The answer depends on the traveler. For us, it’s overwhelmingly YES, we get to travel where and how we like to travel for about HALF THE COST.

We didn’t hesitate to book this Douro Valley tour as we had previously traveled with Teeming in the Netherlands. We both appreciate their business model of independent travel (exploring most cities on our own, or more usually with friends made on our trip). We enjoyed the most wonderful meals while on this cruise, and we never felt rushed or crowded in the dining room. Every meal meant white tablecloths, fine china, and beautifully presented and delicious food. The scenery along the Douro is spectacular. Our resident entertainer, Freddie Langston, kept us entertained in the lounge, as did our tour director, Kate, who gave us an overview of our next day’s activities. I hope we can travel with Teeming again soon!

This was our third cruise with Teeming River and we cannot recommend them highly enough! We boarded our ship within sight of the Eiffel Tower, and were able to spend a leisurely day sight-seeing in this beautiful part of Paris. Once on board, we were made to feel so “at home”, and we quickly got into the rhythm of river cruising. Our amazing cruise director, Kate, as well as our hosts, Jeff and Gina, were always available to answer any questions. Teeming’s business model, which encompasses independent travel and therefore a more affordable price point, greatly appealed to us, as we love to explore on our own, or with friends we’ve made on the ship. We hope to travel with Teeming again soon!

I LOVE Teeming River! We have done 5 river cruises with them. I have also used Avalon, Viking, AMA etc, & I would put Teeming River #1. I disliked following someone around in a group tour. With their app you can explore at your own pace. There is also a warmth that is lacking among the others. This is the passion of Jeff & Gina, not just another business, & their personal touch to assure that everyone has a great time is the best part. The food and ships are the same quality as the others–excellent.

Being my first River Cruise I was not sure what expect. I can say with no hesitation that this was a great experience. Jeff, Gina and the whole team of TRC were extraordinary. The food, the staff, the tours and entertainment were top notch. There were plenty of opportunities to explore with guided tours as well as the option to do things independently on your own. I did both and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I will be back and would highly recommend Teeming River Cruises.

A beautiful ship with beautiful people. Love the small villages and walking among the historic buildings and beautiful cathedrals. Great spending time with other cruisers. Small enough to connect with new friends and large enough to keep it exciting. Jeff and Gina are wonderful hosts and I will definitely travel again with Teeming Cruises.

I just got back from the African cruise and it was amazing. I expected rustic accommodations in Africa; however, they were beautiful and spacious. The food was prepared by natives but were trained by French chefs and the quality and presentation was excellent. We met and made friends that I hope to travel with on future cruises. I have already booked the cruise to Italy later this year. I highly recommend Teeming River Cruises.

My husband and I just got back from an African River Adventure and Safari Cruise with Teeming River Cruises and absolutely loved everything about it! This was our first trip with Teeming River Cruises and so I did alot of research because, like others, I had a hard time believing all that we would be getting for the price advertised. But what we actually received was a level of luxury that far exceeded our expectations!
The accommodations, the food, the safaris, the travel arrangements, every detail was handled by excellent staff and with excellent service. With a group of only 15 of us, we made many new friends, including Jeff and Gina, who immediately made us feel like long time friends!
Even prior to booking our trip, the staff at Teeming River Cruises, and Jeff himself, made sure my questions were answered promptly and completely. Truthfully the customer service I received from this company is above and beyond what I have ever experienced anywhere, which was one of the deciding factors in choosing to travel with Teeming!
In addition to the beauty of Africa, and all the amazing animals we were blessed to see up close, the highlight for us was being able to visit God’s Hope Christian Mission School in Uganda, and see how God is at work changing the lives of future generations, through children’s education, food programs, medical care, etc.
Thanks Jeff and Gina for putting this trip together and allowing us to experience Africa in such an amazing way!
We will definitely travel with Teeming River Cruises again!

We had the most amazing trip with our family! We have family in 4 different states and this was such a fun way to get together! This is the PERFECT way to do a family reunion or simply explore a new country/countries. I was a little nervous about the dining experience, since I’m a vegetarian, but they were beyond accommodating! I had some of the best vegetarian meals of my life. The food was divine! HIGHLY recommend Teeming River Cruises!

Best travel experience of my 60 years traveling domestically, internationally and living all over the world! When I first found their website and carefully read everything the cruises offered, I absolutely could not believe the prices were correct…There must be hidden charges yet to be revealed or that would come up later during the cruise? I had all these thoughts and more because I am an experienced ocean cruiser and have wanted to do a river cruise for decades but just could not see spending $1200+/day total for a cabin/stateroom on the well-known river cruise lines. BUT, my curiosity got the better of me so I decided to search for as many reviews as I could find. To my surprise, there were many and, without exception, (how often does that happen?) they were glowing. I called the Teeming reservation number which was answered by the most pleasant, sincere and warm woman in Florida. 15 minutes after the beginning of the call I said, “Let’s do it!” My cruise was on the “Three Rivers Cruise” aboard the Royal Crown. Cost: about $220/day total for a double room! The elegance of the ship cannot adequately be described. Everything about the ship and cruise was perfect– my cabin, the common areas, the lovely upper teakwood sun deck, dining room, Captain Hans, Cruise Director, Kate, crew, food, services, musical entertainment, everything, without exception! … Also aboard were some Teeming staff members from the USA and the owners, Jeff and Gina. After getting to know them, it was easy to understand why their new concept in cruising is catching on so well. …The main feature I love, and so did everyone else… is shore days are your own to do whatever you like at your own pace…Teeming offers a cool App that allows passengers to download a list of cities for each cruise to one’s smartphone…I do not have any financial interest or connection with Teeming of any kind other than being an incredibly happy paying passenger who will travel with them again and often…Give them a try, you will not be disappointed no matter how many cruises you might have taken before or if this would be your first. Happy cruising!

What an amazing trip we shared on the brown Danube! So many beautiful places, magnificent buildings and lovely gardens. The ‘highlight’, however (to us) was the new friends that we met over meals, walking the streets and chatting over coffee at sidewalk tables. A tip of a lifetime, memories forever and people to cherish. Thank you for this opportunity and may God continue to bless your efforts.

The “Delights of the Rhine and Moselle” was a river cruise with daily ports of call along parts of those two river systems. The better-known stops on the Rhine were in larger towns and cities with a diversity of things to experience, while the Moselle day-dockings were in smaller communities where the emphasis was significantly more on vineyard cultivation and wine making/tasting as well as local wine festivals. For those with a dedicated interest in wine, the Moselle days were quite a unique highlight of the itinerary. The Royal Crown used for this itinerary was a very pleasant river cruise ship on which to spent a week, with good public spaces in which to meet and mingle with other guests. Personal cabin accommodations were also comfortable and well outfitted. Meals were consistently tasty and well presented, with efficient, friendly servers.

Teeming cruises did an outstanding job and I highly recommend cruising with them. We took a chance to sail with this relatively new company that had the Itinerary we wanted to do. It included two nights in Vienna. The boat Empress was 12 years old but had been meticulously maintained . Our roo was immaculate and very efficient. We had a balcony that had a electric window on the exterior giving us even more room to spread out. The staff aboard the boat were excellent, caring, fun and their command of English very good. Kate our tour director provided a detailed description of each stop. We also were provided with an app that we could use offline that was helpful. The food was very good as well as the wine that was provided in the purchased beverage package. We are contemplating another trip with them if they sail where we want to travel. The people who sailed with us seemed to have similar expectations that we had. There were no boisterous or snooty people. Thank you Teeming Cruises you did well!

Quality of the meals, itinerary, and the ship accommodations were all excellent AS WERE THE STAFF. Not unexpected we were bused from Nuremberg to our first stop. No problem and we didn’t miss a port. A word of caution: Each day was a new port and ability to walk became immediately obvious….lots of cobblestone streets and endless steps. Just nothing to do (except read) if one stayed aboard. For evenings we suggest music for dancing; games available; movies. But, absolutely will consider future cruses with TR and surely will recommend TR. Finally, compared to other cruise lines……..a tremendous value.

Having been on a Viking River Cruise before we were worried this was too good to be true for the price. However, we actually enjoyed it more than the Viking cruise as we could just do our own thing in our own time with much less waiting around. The ship and cabin and meals were every bit as good as Viking.

We recently completed the Danube 2 week river cruise and thoroughly enjoyed it. If you enjoy experiencing areas at your own pace and following your own interests this is fantastic. You are provided information about each port the evening before you arrive and are free to pick what you want to see. If you do some research yourself on the itinerary before you go, this is perfect! They also provide links to tour guides in each port before you go and you can select any excursions you want from what those sites provide. We were able to book our own driver for the day to go to Cesky Kromlov. We also booked an all-day bike ride through the Wachau valley. We have been on “escorted” tours before and we’re familiar with the major towns on the route and loved being “free.” It was interesting to see the areas from a different perspective as we have to admit we found ourselves annoyed by the large groups of escorted tour people obstructing access to some areas.
The ship was beautiful, wonderful, and comfortable. The sundeck was perfect for sightseeing and relaxing. The food and staff were outstanding. We met new friends and loved every minute. On top of all those positives, the prices are below the competition and well worth the money for the trip.

Throughly enjoyed the ship, crew, meals and fellow passengers on the Danube cruise. The cruise company’s owners, Jeff and Gina along with cruise director, Kate, provided daily information about our upcoming destinations and how best to enjoy ourselves at our chosen pace individually. Kudos to the chef and her staff for the quality and variety of the menus. We were so impressed with the cruise that we booked another after 3 days! Jim and Shirley Vogt

A friend and I went on the Royal Emerald on the September Danube Cruise. What a really super cruise it was. The boat and staff were first class and Kate, as Teeming tour director, was amazing. We were told everything there was to know about the various places we were going to stop at and we could then make up our own minds about where we wanted to go. I can’t recommend this tour highly enough. Coming from South Africa with our rather dismal exchange rate, this was indeed value for money. Jeff and Gina were on the trip with us and were real ambassadors for Teeming River Cruises. Thank you for a great time.

My friend and I did the 12-day Danube Cruise on the Royal Emerald from Nuremberg to Budapest. The entire crew was great, including a very talented and professional musician who we enjoyed listening to in the evenings. The cabins were very adequate with plenty of storage space for our things. We visited many lovely cities and villages and enjoyed the views from the deck. We prefer exploring on our own so we liked the app the company provided that gave the highlights of each place along with directions. (I must say I never quite mastered the navigation end of it). We met many wonderful people and had a phenomenal time. I would highly recommend this company for anyone considering a river cruise!

We’ve just returned from the September Danube River cruise. What a fabulous trip! Kate, our cruise director, ensured everyone was informed about the sights and activities to do at each port and the POP guide we were provided with was excellent. We have previously travelled on an Avalon river cruise and the high standard of the boat, crew and food was exactly the same on our Teeming River boat, Royal Emerald. The only difference was the cost – Teeming River was half the cost of our previous cruise. We organised a couple of independent shore excursions – a concert in Vienna and a segway tour as well as a bus trip to Saltzburg – so much better to be able to go where we wanted rather than simply following the guide with a flag. If you’ve been considering a river cruise but have hesitated because of the cost – don’t hesitate any longer.

My husband and I along with our close friends had a fantastic cruise on the Danube September 2019. Owners, Jeff and Gina were on our cruise and they were both delightful as was the very funny cruise director, Kate. Accommodations were very comfortable, meals were delicious and our fellow travelers were lovely to meet and get to know. Our first river cruise but will definitely not be our last!
We especially like the slower pace and the ability to tailor the land tours to our needs and interests. Definitely not interested in being in a herd being told where to go and what to see. We have traveled extensively on our own and like to be able to stop and photograph or explore without holding anyone else up. If you enjoy planning your own excursions, this is the cruise line for you! We are looking forward to booking with Teeming River again, great service and fantastic value!!

Everything promised was seen through with professionalism. Jeff and Gina travelled with us and were a source of inspiration to ‘new’ River travellers.

Kate, our tour guide was the tops.

My wife and I have taken quite a few ocean cruises but never had a river cruise experience. We finally did it with Teeming River Cruises for the Great Rhine Tour and really enjoyed every moment of it! We traveled with our friends (total 12 people) and majority of us shared the same nice experience. The owners of Teeming River Cruise, Jeff and Gina, were on board with the guests all the way, truly wonderful people persons who were always willing to help guests the best they could! River cruise is quite different from the ocean ones in quite a few aspects. It may not fit everybody but for me and my wife at our time in life it works great. We plan to do it again, and for sure with Teeming River. Thanks, Gina and Jeff!

This was a great tour, great crew, great accommodations, great information. I’ve taken many ocean cruises sad a few river cruises. This was undoubtedly the best. The crew was excellent and accommodating and the staff was always helpful. The information that they provided to the passengers was right on the spot about the ports where we stopped. I took the drink package but it really wasn’t needed. I don’t drink enough to have warranted the price, although it was extremely reasonable. I have to mention that the showers were terrific, both hot and good flow, which is sometimes lacking in hotel rooms and cruise cabins. Not the case with this ship. I will definitely be taking another trip with Teeming Cruises.

My wife and I cruised on the Rhine, Mosel, and Main rivers from August 12 through 20, 2019 with Teeming. It was a wonderful experience! Rather than repeat what others have accurately said in recent posts I’d like to add what attracted us to Teeming and why we appreciated its approach so much. First, we liked the idea of a relatively small ship. The Royal Crown had a capacity of 90 as opposed to the newer, larger ships that often carry 200 to 300 passengers. We got to know many of the passengers quite well. Second, the cruise allows you to pay for only what you need. We have been in Germany and France on other trips when the large, deluxe boats pulled in and have seen their passengers almost literally herded into waiting busses for one-size-fits all tours. In most ports with Teeming we walked or biked to the nearby sites of interest. This was facilitated by the company loaning each of a smart phone loaded with tourist information for each port. An added bonus was that calls back to the USA were free using their phone. We took the optional drink package but given our modest consumption, we would have been better off buying the $4 to $6 drinks one at a time. Third, it was a cosmopolitan group: a majority were Americans but there were many from Canada, Australia, and a couple from Peru (it was their second Teeming cruise.) Although this was our first river cruise in Europe, we have taken 8 to 10 ocean cruises and cruised on the Amazon and Yangtze. Compared to our fellow passengers on other boats, the Teeming group seemed younger, more active, and friendlier. Finally, the food was excellent, the service exceptional, and the cruise director (Kate) is the best in the business. Her vast experience and great sense of humor assured that we got the best experience out of each port.

The Royal Crown and its crew were totally amazing, as was cruise director Kate Barella. The Frankfurt to Duesseldorf itinerary might have covered a relatively short distance in miles on the Rhine and Moselle Rivers, but the thousands of years of history represented made it unbelievably memorable. From start to finish, everyone involved with Teeming River Cruises treated us like royalty and provide all the necessary information for us to go out and do/see/experience what we wanted to, not what they thought we should. With 11 destinations in 8 days, including the start and end cities, we had a lot of options and we hit the ground running. Kate & Teeming went out of their way to insure that everyone could have a truly enjoyable time on the river. We would definitely cruise with Teeming River Cruises again!

We loved the Royal Crown, it was classic and beautiful. The staff were terrific – following a great example set by the Owners and the Captain who were interactive with all guests, a pleasant surprise. The rooms were well maintained and the food was excellent. Every experience was appreciated. The Tour Director Kate is simply the best. Charming, funny, helpful, informative and just a pleasure to be around. The port calls are well thought out and enjoyable. The company provided a pre-programmed guide to offer points of interest and directions. All ports had walk-able sights. We preferred no planned tours and that was one of the primary reasons for choosing Teeming. When we did want to make plans for transportation to more distant sights, the front desk staff (and Manager) were more than accommodating. We are so glad we chose Teeming! We loved this cruise!

We were on the Great Rhine Tour in early August 2019. The trip was fantastic! My husband and I had been on large ocean cruises but this was our first river cruise. We got to personally meet many of the other passengers in this smaller setting through the meals and informal get togethers. In our other cruises, I do not think we met any new friends. I walked off the boat with at least 8 new friends. The staff was efficient and friendly, and the meals were great (with a touch of the locale flavor involved at each of the 9 cities). There was also entertainment every night, with two of the nights featuring a known rock member from the 60’s. Another big advantage of this cruise was the freedom to explore the sites at your choice and leisure. There were no guided tours at any city. The host would lay out the look of the city, the sites and the popular foods and drinks the night before we landed in each locale. You were then free to explore the next day on your own, or with friends you met on the boat. The owners, Jeff and Gina, were on board and very friendly and always willing to engage in meals or activities throughout the 8 days. This was unforgettable happy memory and we hope to have more on Teeming River Cruises.

A European river cruise has been on our bucket list for years but we’ve not been able to justify the cost. We like to research destinations and tour on our own and before Teeming came on the scene that wasn’t an option. We just returned home from the August 2019 Teeming Three Rivers Cruise. We visited some great cities and toured them at our pace and enjoyed beautiful scenery cruising the Rhine and Mosel rivers. The ship, Royal Crown is charming and definitely 5 star. The crew was helpful and pleasant. The food was great and beautifully presented. We highly recommend Teeming River Cruises and hope to cruise with them again, maybe in Italy or France.

We were very surprised at the politeness and friendliness of the entire staff on the boat and the experience was sensational. You would be hard pressed to find a better wait staff than those in the dining room. No request was too small or too big for them to accommodate you whatever it might be. This cruise was the best vacation experience my wife and I have ever had. I highly recommend them.

We took the Three Rivers cruise in August 2019 from Frankfurt to Dusseldorf. It was a fantastic experience. We were on board the Royal Crown, which is a spectacular ship. Since it only holds 90 passengers, the trip had a great family feel. With open seating at meals, we joined many different people during the week. We really could not have asked for a better trip. The captain, Hans, was very personable and seemed to get to know everyone on the ship. The cruise director Kate had a great since of humor and dry British Wit. The food was delicious. Our cabin was one of the least expensive ones, but it was larger than we expected. The bathroom was plenty large and the shower had great water pressure. The staff on the boat was exceptional, from the cleaning staff to the waiters. Jeff and Gina, the owners of the company, were on board for the first part of the trip and they obviously want to make the company a contender in this industry. We were beta-testing a phone that was provided free of charge (I think this will change) which was fantastic. It allowed free calling anywhere in the world and a hotspot. It also had the walking tours built in, along with other useful apps. The calling was a huge bonus. The only downside I saw for the trip was that the ship’s WIFI was weak, but It wasn’t a huge issue for us. We enjoyed being able to set our own schedule and not be confined to certain tours. I think we got to see everything we wanted to see.

I wanted to do something really special but was not sure we could afford a European River Cruise. I found Teeming RC on the internet. A brand new affordable concept in River Cruising! After much thought and investigating, we decided to take a chance. This was the best decision we have made in our lives‼️. Every year since then, we have been on The Royal Crown. Cruising the Rhine, the Main and the Danube rivers. We have had a love affair with this ship, the crew, our Cruise directors, and especially with the charm and beauty of this part of the world! Thank you Jeff and Gina, for having the vision and the perseverance to make this a reality for so many of us‼️
Forever grateful, Tonda and Len Gordon
P.S. There is so much more I could say but you should just book a cruise with Teeming and you’ll have your own story to share.

We did the Great Rhine Tour out of Amsterdam on August 5, 2019. It was our first time with Teeming River Cruises and they totally exceeded our expectations. The Cruise Director Kate was so helpful with her nightly port talks and knowledge about the surrounding area. We loved how diverse the ports were — both small and larger cities — which allowed us to truly experience Germany. The ship (Royal Crown) was so clean, comfortable and spacious, and the crew were exceptional. They were always there to assist and make sure our experience was one we’d never forget. I cannot recommend Teeming enough! You’re able to spend your time the way you’d like to — either by relaxing, exploring all day, or coming and going at your leisure. It was also so unique to have the cruise owners — Jeff and Gina — on board right alongside us. They’re so friendly and it was amazing to be able to ask questions on the spot. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we hope to be on a Teeming River Cruise again soon!

Another wonderful experience, traveling with Teeming River Cruises, through the Netherlands has come to an end and I’m back home – sigh.
Having already traveled with Gina and Jeff, this was a no brainer as my husband and I set off for another wonderful river cruise adventure. The boat was beautiful, set in a time when boat travel was king (the wood and ornamentals, lounge, dining room, oh I could go on and on)! The room was well appointed, the food delicious, and the staff? It took us 2 days to actually “catch” a sight of our cabin steward! He was in and out, beds made, clean towels, and at night – chocolate!!! And even Jeff stepped in when my husband had red wine spilled down the back of his dress pants! Poof, cleaned and ready to wear!
We were blessed to have on board entertainment by John McEuen, former member of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and his lovely wife, Marilyn who accompanied John on a couple songs. When not entertaining, the ship had a pianist that played the songs we knew!
While we had music in the lounge and some wonderful meals, this experience is really made possible by the wonderful people that Gina and Jeff seem to draw. Since there is not assigned seating, you have the opportunity to meet most of the people and have lively dinner conversations that continue as you head for the lounge and watch the scenery pass. The Cruise Director Gary was a hoot and was always able to step in and help, whether a “where’s the train”, “isn’t this museum here” or “I can’t find my…”
As you can tell I enjoyed my second trip with them and we now are planning our next…..will we see you??? I would attach my photos but Jeff and Gina have such an amazing FB page, my photos pale in comparison. Check them out at:https://www.facebook.com/teemingrivercruises/ and start planning!

This was our first river boat cruise and words can’t express how much we loved it. It was everything it said it was on their descriptions. Teeming fit our style of travel. We are ones that really don’t like being herded around with a group, while wearing headphones. With Teeming there is so much flexibility!! We could show up for breakfast when we wanted. We could come back for lunch if we wanted to…same with dinner. We loved the staff and loved that Jeff and Gina were on the cruise with us. We like exploring towns on our own… really getting to know the culture and the people. If we wanted to go on an organized tour, we could. We also liked the variety of ages of the fellow passengers. What spoke volumes to us, was that, although this is a relatively new tour company, so many of the passengers were not only repeat customers, BUT, there were many who were staying with Teeming on the next cruise tour. We had lots of laughs and created memories of a lifetime and plan to develop a lasting relationship with Teeming, Jeff and Gina, by going on more tours. We have told many of our business associates and friends, and they LOVED their whole concept. I am sure there will be several who will plan their own tour with Teeming. Thanks again for being you and all you did for the whole group. WE LOVED that it was a small group.

This was the first-ever river cruise for my wife and me (Summer Dutch Delights cruise). It exceeded by expectations by a zillion points. Restful, great staff, wonderful food. The owners of Teeming River, Jeff and Gina, went out of the way to make it such a great experience. Will go again..and again…and again enjoyed it so much.

Summer Dutch Delights was our first-ever cruise experience and it more than exceeded our expectations – the attention of the friendly, highly professional crew; the outstanding service and meals in the lovely dining room; the helpful guidance of the cruise director Gary; and of course the personal touch and care of Teeming River Cruises owners, Jeff and Gina. The relaxed comfortable ambience was second to none. TeemingRC & the Royal Crown are a tough act to follow, though after this, we’d be happy to follow the TeemingRC team anywhere!

As this was our first river cruise, we were a little nervous about what to expect, especially from a relative newcomer to the river cruising business. We were not disappointed! It was a trip of a lifetime! Teeming River Cruises and owners, Gina and Jeff, have put together a great program that truly lives up to there motto “Explore More for Less” without sacrificing quality. We thank them for a wonderful experience and look forward to our next river cruise with them.

This was our 3rd Teeming River cruise and as expected, it exceeded our expectations. It was a pleasure to again cruise with Gina and Jeff and the Royal Crown was a fantastic ship to cruise on. The entire ship took us back to the 1930’s and created a different world to travel in. As usual, the food was fantastic and the entire service staff on the Royal Crown were superb. We would certainly recommend Teeming River Cruises to anyone who either has taken one of the expensive river cruises or has avoided taking one due to the high price. We found that Teeming found the perfect balance between necessities and unneeded extras that other river cruises provide. Book your next Teeming river cruise NOW!!!!!

Hi Jeff– thanks for your personal touch– much appreciated! We’re still mulling over as to what to do in 2020– so many choices. Our last year’s trip with you and Gina will remain with us as THE most exquisite journey we have made on a small ship. We were treated so well, taken care of, fed well, and almost everything was so very well organized (you couldn’t have done anything about the low water levels, now, could you??)
Keep up the good work, do well and take time to relax; remember, if you need stockholders………. we may be available!!
Best wishes to you and your lovely wife,

Very excited about the next cruise around the Netherlands and Germany with Teeming River Cruises. Never have we (my wife Marilyn and I) had such a carefree and easy travel experience, with plenty of time to chill as one watches from the upper deck the beautiful countryside drift by.. or while eating the wonderful endless food, gazing out the dining room or lounge windows, chatting with new friends from around the world. Everyone is there for the same purpose: to enjoy great parts of the world, conversations, sightseeing, wonderful food, new entertainment, great street performers, castles, churches and abbeys, vineyards, museums, on and on. All without the daily usual travel difficulties of: check in, check out, where to park, where to eat, traffic… the insecurities of travel erased, the is only one thing left to do: enjoy the trip!
I have loved performing since becoming a teenage magician in Anaheim’s Disneyland (with my new high school friend Steve Martin), and later became one of the founding members of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, playing over 10,000 shows around the world for the next 50 years. As I ride this cruise it is great to meet people from those years we all shared in one way or another, and have that special night where I can do a performance that takes all back to those times as we drift to yet another stop for next day’s exploring. It is a great setting… for one: the audience is not going to leave! We are all captives of our captivating journey. We all like laughing, hearing background stories of music history, music, and in general having a good time. It is like being in one of the cool folk clubs of the ‘60’s, only there are more stories and songs.. so many notes, so little time! This is not a fishing trip on this gentle river trip, but there is a lot to catch…come join me this summer for a trip of a lifetime.

All I can say is amazing! This isn’t your average cruise! From the elegance of the cruise ship itself to the awesome staff that comes along with it you will not be disappointed. We have never been on a river cruise before but will continue to travel with Teeming on their many destinations and countries they offer cruises in. We traveled on the Tulips cruise in April and saw some beautiful cities we may have not gotten to if we planned ourselves. Each day we were given the history of the town we were visiting and given some insight to where we should visit in the city and what to do. When back you had amazing food, music and time to hang out and get to know other passengers. This trip was just what we needed! Thanks Teeming!

This was my second cruise with Teeming River Cruises and what a wonderful experience it was! We loved the varied itinerary with stops along quaint little Dutch towns such as Enkhuisen and Hoorn with their outdoor cafes, small shops and museums, as well as bigger port cities like Antwerp and exciting Rotterdam! We appreciated the ability to just walk off the ship and explore at our leisure. The ship was modern and comfortable. The big bonus was the balcony off our bedroom, which allowed us to relax and view the scenery as we cruised along the canals and rivers of the Netherlands and Belgium. Such a treat! The crew was friendly and professional, the food was delectable and we loved the breakfast buffet options. We selected the optional wine package, which we would recommend if you drink wine with your meals. We stayed up late a few nights, boogying to the sounds of Zoltan’s piano tunes and met some people that I’m sure will be friends for life! We met lots of friendly people from all over the globe – Australia, Denmark, Canada, Peru, Tennessee which made it a unique experience. Thank you Jeff and Gina for creating this unforgettable experience once again. Looking forward to our 3rd trip!

Wonderful Cruise! Jeff and Gina worked really hard to make this an amazing vacation for all of their guests. All of the ports were great. A great opportunity to visit small towns rather than just the Tourist packed big cities. A very active group of cruisers compared to other riverboat lines we have taken. Met many incredible people and made some wonderful new friend. We have already booked our next cruise with Teeming. Can’t wait!!!

This was our first river cruise and it exceeded our expectations! When we first discovered Teeming River Cruises we couldn’t believe the price and we were actually skeptical that it was even legit!! But after much research we went on their Tulips and Windmills cruise in April 2019. It was everything we hoped for and more. It is more our style of planning our own excursions at each port. The owners were on the cruise and are just incredible people. My husband and I highly recommend this cruise line. You won’t be disappointed! Book one now as they are filling up fast!

Our recent Cruise through the Netherlands and Belgium (March/April 2019) was outstanding! Great price, great value! very good food, wonderful people from all over. we loved the flexibility of the cruise, planning the days as we wanted, traveling at night, disembarking each morning and spending the days in the historic villages and contemporary cities. Hedleigh did an admirable job of keeping us informed And entertained. Owners, Jeff and Gina were warm and welcoming and shared lots of good travel hints. The Captain and his team were skilled and experienced, the entire staff was friendly, responsive and efficient! Everything was immaculate and tidy. The rooms were roomy and quite beautiful, all glass toward the water, a nice balcony and windows that opened to the view and the breeze. We were on the third floor, mid-ship which was quiet and accessible to everything. The only downside of the cruise was we were often rafted to another ship in port so the scenery was not always available from our balcony and consequently we did not use the balcony much, but did leave our slide down windows open most of the time which we loved. Not much chance for traveling scenery as we mostly traveled at night and the canals were quite industrial although very interesting, lots of boat traffic of all kinds! Teeming really had no control over docking position which was explained in our pre-cruise info. And canals are not as scenic as rivers. We loved it all the same! The upper deck had a lovely lounge area for great scenery and sunsets! We highly recommend Teeming River Cruises! Book now and go! You won’t be sorry! Thanks Teeming!

Incredible cruise. Lovely suite with incredible balcony. Met so many fabulous people. And we felt that we were living a history lesson. Great price and perfect for us as we were able to go and do at our own pace. They also had a number of things to keep us busy, port lectures and evening entertainment. A smaller ship which made it easier to get to some of the smaller cities. It was the first cruise of the season on a new ship so there were a few kinks. But our hosts went out of their way to make up for any issue. This was our first trip to Europe and it was the perfect introduction. We made our own decisions on where to go and what to see and at our own pace. We are ready to book again and bring along family and friends. And we want to include all the new friends we made along the way. You will love it!!!!

If you like doing your own thing Teeming River Cruises are for you. For every port that we stop at we will have a port talk in the evening before or the morning of. As to what there is to see and do and what time museums open and close. The food is excellent, the staff were very friendly and efficient!

My wife and I traveled with Teeming on the Christmas Market Cruise last November, and we couldn’t be more pleased. This was our first river cruise, but we did a lot of research before booking. We were initially hesitant given the price being less than half of other cruises we considered as well as Teeming being relatively new to the business. That said, we were blown away by the experience.
We cruised during a period of historic low water levels throughout Europe. All river cruise lines were forced to alter itineraries. Teeming did a phenomenal job of communicating with its passengers, listening to our feedback, and making informed decisions on the alterations. Ultimately, our cruise was modified minimally compared to the larger lines cruising much larger vessels (less navigable in low water).
Once on board the service was first class, the food was outstanding, and the entertainment couldn’t be beat (we were lucky enough to be on a cruise that featured John McEuen and John Cable of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band). Our cruise director was extremely knowledgeable and went out of her way to assist us in planning our daily explorations.
What drew us to the cruise was the independent nature of the cruise that Teeming takes. Given the independence of the cruise, we were surprised that we were on the younger side when it came to passengers (we are in our 30’s). The approach was perfect for us, giving us the freedom to explore what we wanted to in each city, while being transported from port to port at night (having stressful jobs and limited vacation, the last thing we wanted was to be herded through our entire day for two weeks straight with no downtime). In light of this approach, and the dramatic value compared to more traditional tour oriented cruises, I can’t recommend Teeming enough to both young and old travelers alike.
Having to budget both our financial resources and our busy schedules, Teeming ended up being the best vacation related decision we have ever made. The value is absolutely unbeatable in the industry, the accommodations and service are outstanding, and the approach provides a budget-friendly means of traveling an expansive geographic area while maintaining your independence to explore.
Finally, despite being younger than most cruisers, we absolutely loved our fellow passengers. We had such a great time that we just booked a 2020 cruise with Teeming with two other couples we met on our last cruise. Now, we just need to figure out how we are going to save up enough vacation leave by then! See you in 2020 Teeming!

We have been on other European river cruises, but this company is definitely the best—and at a fraction of the price! The owners, Jeff and Gina, are cruising with you to make sure every aspect of your voyage is fabulous!

Teeming River Cruise experience was wonderful. The ship was well appointed and the staff was so friendly, attentive and professional. Patrick, the chef, provided meals that were creative, appealing to the eye and delicious. He went out of his way to help me craft a Christmas menu to serve to my family which was inspired by the various towns we visited on the Rhine. Our cruise director, Kate, was very informative and spoke with such wit that we looked forward to each lecture. However, a definite highlight was the warmth and hospitality of the owners Jeff and Gina. We were fortunate to join Jeff & Gina for lunch one afternoon and had such interesting and genuine conversation. We talked about their journey with Teeming and their family but they mostly asked about us! We talked about our love of travel, our family dynamics, and specific stories of our special needs son who LOVES rainbows! That evening it was my birthday and in addition to a delicious and beautiful cake that was delivered to the table, Gina had shopped THAT DAY to find a rainbow ornament to affirm the story she had heard at lunch about our special needs son! How thoughtful! Finally, waiting for us when we returned to the room was a book filled with photos from the cruise itinerary and a bottle of champagne. We highly recommend the Teeming River Cruise for a lovely ship, itinerary, and staff but mostly for the warmth and thoughtfulness that is put into making sure each guest has an experience that provides memories to last a lifetime. Thank you Teeming – we cannot wait to come aboard in the near future!

We’re excited to see new options and are looking forward to future cruises with Teeming. We recommend them to everyone who are interested in the idea of a river cruise. Thank you Jeff and Gina for taking the chance to start this company!

The Rhine River Cruise that began in Amsterdam and went throughout fairytale villages of the Rhine was an excellent experience. We saw breathtaking mid-century villages that will forever leave a beautiful impression on my mind. To be able to see this while the Christmas Villages were present was an added bonus. The ship was unable to navigate further than Regensburg due to low water levels, but the ship’s size allowed us to go farther than any other ship on the Rhine. Many people chose to take day trips from Regensburg via bus to either Prague, Munich or Salzburg, while we decided to go to Vienna on our own for a longer stay. In spite of the unforeseen water levels, the crew did an excellent job of keeping everyone entertained and helped each guest to fulfill their vacation destination desires. The ship itself had comfortable quarters, was clean and allowed us to take in the amazing views of the Rhine. The food was good and offered a large variety. Jeff and Gina do an excellent job of organizing a sensational experience. They helped us to get our airfare which was incredibly affordable and helpful. I would recommend Teeming River Cruises to any and all of my friends and look forward to traveling with them again in France and Italy. I have strongly recommended this to my entire Supper Club and hopefully, we will be able to enjoy our future trips together.

This was our first ever river cruise and without a doubt, will not be our last. It’s incredible how well Teeming River Cruise quickly handled buses and accommodations in light of the low water scenario on the first part of our cruise. It came off without a hitch and we could not have asked for more. We can appreciate the exhaustive efforts it took to coordinate around mother nature.
A shout out to Kate (Cruise Director/Comedy Relief), Peter (Chef) and Alex (Server) who made us feel so special. All of the staff became part of the fun! Having Jeff, Gina and some of their friends and colleagues on board for the final cruise of the year made it extra special.
We were impressed with the generous size of the rooms and all amenities. We loved all the ports and especially the freedom to tour our desired sights at our own pace. The itinerary accommodated seeing the Christmas Markets in the evening and the opportunity to learn about the rich local history, make warm memories and develop a deeper appreciation of the historical ties to the past.
We met and made many dear friends along the trip. This was indeed the most special trip we have ever been on. Thanks!

I do not do Facebook so here is a short note to let you know that we enjoyed the recent November 19, 2018 Budapest to Amsterdam cruise on the Johann Strauss. Our cabin was 210 and it was absolutely perfect. Low water cannot be changed and the buses were first class and the ride pleasant. We previously had cruised the Rhine and Nuremberg to Budapest, but not the Main River and its connecting canal. We found that area absolutely delightful. We found the food excellent and overall we thought the staff did a wonderful job. We like your model and think Teeming Rivers has an excellent future. Have a happy holidays.

We’ve been on several cruises on five different lines, including a river cruise. All were nice, all had a very corporate feeling.
We love and appreciate the passion of Jeff, Gina and their staff. They and the crew did everything possible to make our trip memorable. They went well beyond what was expected for our cruise. Jeff, Gina and their staff weren’t vacationing, they were hosts and guides. That personal attention made our Teeming experience wonderful, never be forgotten.
I’m disappointed and saddened that people think Jeff and Gina can influence or change mother nature. Same thing happens when there’s and accident on an expressway and one is forced to take a detour to a local street.
But, if I’m going to be stuck or making a detour, I’d rather it be on the Royal Crown with the Teeming staff and crew.

Even though low water levels prevented the full trip to Budapest, Teeming River ensured that we were comfortable and fully informed. The concept of a “minimally invasive” tour (that is no tour guides herding us) was very much the way we travel, setting our own agenda and wandering as the locations provided opportunities to interact with the local population and the sights in those locations. Add to this excellent meals and very helpful staff the entire time was extremely enjoyable. This was our first river cruise and most likely won’t be the last.

My wife and I had a wonderful time on our cruise. The boat was a very pleasant size, about 100 other guests. The made for a very personal experience as well a chance to get to know a wide range of other travelers. Teeming does a good job of letting people know that they provide great accommodations and food, without the hassle of tours, buses and transfers. We are very independent travelers and this model fits us perfectly. We loved not having to worry about schedule or itinerary but having the freedom to spend time on our own. The owners, Kate the tour guide and the boat staff are wonderful. We are looking forward to our next trip.

From start to finish this trip was ideal. It was affordable, promoted independence but offered plenty of support, and had a terrific itinerary. We were pampered by friendly staff and amazing meals, and our cabin was comfortable. When the Danube became too shallow, the best was made of a disappointing situation, and great care was taken to make our trip to Budapest go well. I’m ready to take the trip all over again!

Dear Jeff and Gina –
As a reminder, I’m the Swiss-based American musician who was incredibly privileged to be able to join you on the Johann-Strauss in Koblenz to perform a bit of music with John McEuen and John Cable.
I wanted to thank you for your generosity and also to extend my thanks to everyone on the crew who made our short visit so memorable. It was a bit surreal in that Helt and I hadn’t realized when we woke up that morning that we’d have the opportunity not only to be on the boat but also to perform with those talented Johns. Our plan had been to meet them in Koblenz, perhaps for a meal, and then to say goodbye and head south. When John Cable and I spoke on the phone in the morning and he said, “You guys can stay on the boat and we’ll all play together tonight,” I had no idea what to expect but am still just smart enough to know a good idea when I hear one.
In any case, it was one of the most positive, gratifying things I’ve experienced in years and your warm welcome, your humor, and your kindness made it all even better.
Again, heartfelt thanks; hope we’ll meet again before we’re too many years older!
Best wishes to you and the entire Teeming family!

A wonderful cruise, well worth every penny. Crew and ship were fantastic. Itinerary was well done and the self-directed aspect of the tours was perfect for what we were looking for. Highly recommended to everyone!!

Take me back to the boat! I don’t belong in reality…I belong dancing with Laslow and sipping mulled wine.
Much love to you for a wonderful trip. My girlfriends and I are already talking about taking a Teeming cruise together.
What an incredible job you guys did in making lemonade out of low-river-level lemons.

Great to have a smaller ship rather than a huge liner with 1000+ people. Liked being able to walk around the towns using the walking app provided rather than taking a pre-arranged bus tour. Food was really great. Staff were very personable and great to chat with.

Just a note to say thank you for hosting the cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam. This was our first river cruise experience and we enjoyed it greatly.
Kate was a delightful Director/Comedy Relief throughout the trip. Loved the morning “Wakey Wakey” calls.
The staff members were all excellent from every perspective. They were all part of the fun and it was great getting to know them all.
The walk across the Waal bridge in Nijmegen was a humbling experience and a great wrap up to the cruise. Proud to have been part of it.
Watching for the excursions for next year. Teeming Cruises has a great formula!

What a fabulous adventure… thanks to Jeff and Gina…….. you made it affordable without all the fancy bells and whistles. Love your concept of letting folks do their own excursions while providing top notch facilities, meals (Peter was fantastic), and excellent accommodations. Your staff are excellent. Thank you again; we will be back!

My husband and I sailed on the Gems of the Rhine with Teeming River Cruises to celebrate our 25th Anniversary. We researched many companies before deciding on Teeming. We were not disappointed!
The ship was well appointed, and very clean. Just the right size, so we got to meet people and make new friends. More importantly, all of the staff, from Captain, sailors, wait staff, Chef Peter, Tour Director Kate, Jeff and Gina were ALL fabulous. There was absolutely nothing that we could have wanted or asked for that wasn’t provided. From the booking, to helping us get just about half price airfare and great flights, they went out of their way to accommodate any request that we made. Jeff and Gina treated us like we were their personal guests at a private party.
Chef Peter was an amazing conductor. From the finest menu options, to the delicious all you could want meals, and SOUPS, he made sure the dining room was run like a well-oiled machine. Everything was smooth.
And Kate-What a hoot! She knows everything! She sure did her research to provide us with lots of interesting information each evening about our next stops. She has a quick wit, and kept us in stitches. She is a keeper!
We started our trip in Mainz, and there were several Viking ships and a Uniworld ship in the harbor. In Koblenz, we saw their busses. The Rhine River was very low when we sailed, but we were able to sail the whole way. No buses for us!
One of the things that Teeming does differently than the other cruise lines is they let their guests decide how they want to spend their time in ports. We were well educated about each city, the highlights and how to get around. We had an app for our phone (no internet necessary) that not only detailed the sites in the city, and the walking distances between points of interest, but just in case we got lost, there was a button to direct us back to the ship! The app was free. I have been on several flag following tours, and after this I will probably never do another. I really enjoyed being able to explore at my own pace, stop when something caught my eye, or just sit on a bench and people watch.
So to those early nay sayers that said you only get what you pay for, and that Teeming would take your money but there would not be a ship in the harbor: YOU ARE VERY WRONG! This trip was not only better than the dream on my bucket list, but also much more affordable so we could enjoy the bucket list dream. Thank you to every single person on the Teeming River Cruise team. YOU are the Gems of the Rhine!

Just completed the Gems of the Rhine cruise and could not be more pleased. The cruise was great, the staff wonderful and the travel was so easy and relaxing. So easy to just walk off the ship and tour the towns or just sit in the lounge and watch the castles and towns as you cruise the river. No buses, no waiting for stragglers and the ability to see what you want. Loved it.

What a pleasure it was to learn that Teeming Cruises lives up to all the great reviews posted by past travelers. I am so glad I found you and your company. I’ll be telling both my travel class on Wed and the travel club next Tuesday all about Teeming. Your company’s handling of the changes necessary because of low water was most impressive. Thank you for inviting me to see for myself what a Teeming River Cruise is like.
I look forward to working with you as I plan a Teeming River cruise for Cultural Adventures’ travelers.

Love these cruises, have taken two. Great ships, staff and dining. Love the small ships and being able to meet fellow passengers and crew. Particularly enjoy the self directed nature of Teeming, no herds of groups to follow. Provided app is helpful to find your way around a stop making it easy to do your own thing. These have been affordable trips which makes it even better. Have been impressed with Jeff and Gina and how involved they are! Thanks for a great experience.

We just returned from a Rhine River Cruise. It was absolutely wonderful! One of the best memory builders ever and a bucket list item. Also VERY affordable. I researched Teeming River Cruises, a new company offering Rhine River Cruises. (and more rivers for 2019). Because they are so new, the positive reviews were tagged as a hoax. I can personally tell you that everything they tell you on their website is 110% true. They are very customer focused and will do absolutely everything to make your reality of a vacation the best it can be. Food is wonderful. Extremely relaxing. Intimate sailing on a clean, beautiful ship with less than 150 guests. Opportunity to explore as you wish at each port, but an educated opportunity. They will do it all to make your choices the best and easy. Best of all, their prices are less than a third of their competition!!!!!! That gave us the opportunity to extend our stay at both ends of the cruise. Ask them to help you with airfare or hotels. They helped us get a deal at almost half of what I could get on my own. Ask them anything, they will help you!
I do not post much on my page, but I can’t speak highly enough about this experience. Check them out! We will do another cruise with them!

WOW! Best cruise ever. The Teeming River Cruise up the Rhine is one of the very few vacations I’ve had that I would do again! OK, maybe on one of the different rivers they cruise, but Teeming’s team made things so easy.
Our boat was better than all the other cruise boats we saw, and the staff was super friendly and efficient. AND the FOOD….. every sit-down meal each evening was like going to a gourmet restaurant. It was great to watch the natural camaraderie develop over the week, from shared meals to shared excursions in each town we stopped.
Jeff and Gina, the Teeming owners, have somehow combined really affordable pricing, with over the top experiences, and they were always approachable and available as was Kate, their most knowledgeable Cruise Director.
It is easy to see that Teeming is a “passion project” of the founders, and I’ll definitely be back to experience it again.

We have traveled on two cruises with Teeming River Cruises and both were fantastic. At the end of the cruise, a comment was made that the Teeming River’s maiden voyage was a home run, but we disagreed saying it was a GRAND SLAM. On both cruises the entire crew and Teeming River staff, including Jeff, Gina, Kate, Tudor, Chef Bobo, bartenders, housekeeping and service desk staff were exceptional. The breakfast and lunch buffets were always fresh and delicious, and the dinners were 5-Star. The ship’s accommodations were very good, it was beautifully restored and we loved it. We highly recommend Teeming River Cruises, it’s very affordable and worth every penny. We will definitely cruise with them again.

I did the TR Jewel of the Rhine cruise starting August 17, 2018. Probably one of the nicest cruises I’ve ever been on. The staff was amazing and having the owners and two of their children on board was a real plus. Their concern that all was right with the passengers was wonderful! I will definitely be doing another cruise with them in the future! 😘

We took Teeming River Cruises from Dusseldorf to Amsterdam and had a fantastic time! The cabins, service, food, itinerary and entertainment were great! The crew was hard working and very good. The trip was very inexpensive: I can’t imagine how the owners managed to provide so much for this price. It was the 2nd voyage of this new company and half of the passengers were already repeat customers. I will definitely cruise with this company again.

I organized a group of 16 who have traveled with me several times over the years. I admit that I was slightly nervous because we had no idea what to expect and there is a big sense of responsibility when you have asked that many people trust you with their vacation funds. However, every single one of my group was pleased and several people told me “the cruise exceeded our expectations.” Jeff and Gina are awesome; Kate is magnificent; the captain and crew were fabulous! The Royal Crown is a classic ship, with attention to details and luxury, with teakwood and brass, elegant furniture and fixtures, and cabins that make you feel like royalty. We watched other ships pass us on the river and their passengers pointed and oohed and aahed over our ship. We peeked into theirs and were glad we were not on their ships that looked plain and stripped down, with rooms that looked merely like small, sterile hotel rooms, rather than well-appointed staterooms. Often passersby on the dock would pause to look at our ship and ask us what cruise line it was! The food was superb and plentiful, served with European-style elegance and flair. Many of our group didn’t want to miss out on anything Chef-created, so they made their way back to the ship in the middle of the day for lunch, even though we were still full from the fabulous breakfast! We are talking about our next cruise with Teeming River Cruises and we’ll be bringing even more on board next time!! Thanks for the wonderful memories, Royal Crown crew!

Taking a Teeming River Cruise is one of our best travel experiences ~ ever. (And we travel a lot).This past trip was our second voyage with this Teeming River Cruise line. The entire staff could not have been more professional or friendly, they made every effort to accommodate our every need. The Cruise Director will forever be our favorite. Kate Barella made every day a little brighter with her clever, informative and funny daily briefings and she was always on hand to assist us with any additional travel needs we may have had! The Head Chef made our meals truly delectable. The best meals were always on the boat ~ so we rarely ate our main meals off the boat. The entire Teeming Staff created an enjoyable experience, from our very first inquiry about Teeming River Cruise company to the beautiful photo book of our destinations, our parting gift, the day we disembarked. Jeff and Gina Paglialonga, the owners of Teeming, are truly the dream team! Professional, hardworking and very hands-on, Jeff and Gina, had the goal of making our experience as reasonable in cost as possible, without sacrificing quality. Their motto, “twice the fun for half the price” is exactly what you get. You can not beat the prices they offer for the itinerary, anywhere. Congratulations – goal accomplished!

I have been on many ocean cruise before, but this was our first ever European river cruise, and we loved it!! We purchased the upgraded Royal Suite room. It was very nicely decorated, very comfortable, and we had amazing views from the very large windows. Since Teeming River Cruises were a much better deal than most other cruise lines, we decided to splurge on the upgraded room, and we would highly recommend it. Every one of the ports we stopped at were amazing and rich with history. Kate, our cruise director, provide everyone with a brief presentation each day on what to see and do at each port. We really liked her and the perspectives she offered. The chef on our ship was amazing and the food was very good. Our favorite dish was the German Goulash. Chef Bobo even gave everyone a copy of the recipe! Being on a river cruise meant that we got to know many of the other guests and we made some great friends. The owners of Teeming River Cruises (Gina and Jeff Paglionga) are experts in the travel industry and certainly know how to plan high quality, low cost and memorable river cruises. All of the staff on the cruise were very professional and tentative to our needs. I would highly recommend any of the cruises from Teeming River Cruises. We are certainly going back again!

This was our very first European Riverboat Cruise and it was fantastic!! The ship was fabulous and we upgraded our cabin to the Royal Suite, which we would highly recommend. It was decorated beautifully and we had fantastic views every day. The accommodations were first rate as was the delicious meals prepared on board. We went on the ‘Rhine in Flames’ cruise and it exceeded our expectations. The scenery as we sailed past historic castles and beautiful countryside was spectacular as we relaxed with new friends on the top deck of the Royal Crown. We started out knowing a few people and left feeling like a part of a small family of people who we were able to share such wonderful memories with. I highly recommend Teeming River Cruises, it’s top notch all the way, from the wonderful owners, Gina and Jeff to the cruise director, Kate, and the welcoming crew aboard the ship.

We went on the Teeming River Cruise on Aug. 17, 2018 and it was wonderful. There was a real concern if the boat would be able to go due to the low water levels. The captain of our boat just took his time, knew the river and we were able to complete the trip which was the best. We had never done a river cruise before, but after going on this one would recommend it highly. The boat was lovely, very classic, with nice touches of Victorian charm. The food was just the best, and prepared with much care. The service was outstanding in the cabins and in the dining room. If you have not done a trip before jump at the chance to cruise with Teeming River Cruises, the small number of people make it so much more intimate. We liked the opportunity to do our own thing at the ports, that is how we usually travel so this was perfect for us.

My husband and I along with my sister and brother-in-law just had the vacation of a lifetime in August on the Classic Rhine River Cruise with Teeming River Cruises. Teeming RC handled our flight arrangements and provided us with all of the information we needed to successfully navigate a vacation abroad…complete with what apps to download for currency exchange, taxi, etc. Teeming also provided us with an app to download for each city we visited which included restaurants, landmarks, and points of interest. The great thing about this app was that you could customize your vacation …do and see what you wanted to with the benefit of having all of the information right on your phone. The Royal Crown is a beautiful ship, accommodating 90 guests very comfortably. The food was amazing, several choices for each meal, served by a very friendly staff, making meal time a fun time to enjoy the company of new friends and share stories of the day’s explorations. I have to mention that Kate, the Cruise Director, is phenomenal! Before every city we visited she gave a presentation on the history of the city, what you might want to buy there, what food you may want to try, and much more… complete with her unbelievable wit and humor and British accent! Everyone loved her and she knew everyone by name! We cannot say enough about our experience with Teeming RC from the beautiful ship, amazing crew, phenomenal itinerary, and the most gracious owners Jeff & Gina Paglialonga….If you are looking for a Vacation of a Lifetime..you have found it with Teeming River Cruises.

Absolutely fantastic week of cruising – such an enjoyable time and the crew on the Royal Crown are just amazing. With this style of cruise, you aren’t dragged around each day to places you may not be interested in – instead you can make your own way through the various towns visited to get out of them exactly what interests you – a much better way of travelling through Europe Would HIGHLY recommend these guys and am already planning our next trip with Teeming River Cruises.

This was hands down the most relaxing vacation my husband and I have ever taken. We just went on the Rhine in Flames tour in August from Dusseldorf to Amsterdam. We loved every minute and the a la cart approach made it very easy to be as active or relaxed as we wanted depending on how we felt on any particular day! The ship crew and staff were great, the food was AMAZING and cruise director Kate was wonderful! It was a great mix of larger cities with lots of historical and cultural things to see & do and charming smaller towns with lots of local flair…something for everyone.
We are already talking about going on a Teeming cruise again next year & my husband said it’s the only way he ever wants to travel!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 1st River Cruise. The boat was a great size, not too big, didn’t feel like dining or top deck were ever over-crowded. Meals on board were very good and plenty of choices. Housekeeping was excellent and the cruise director was always friendly and available to answer questions about upcoming ports. The ports were great and easily walkable to see the Old Town sites.

I have traveled with all of the major river cruise lines–about a dozen times on several rivers. We just tried Teeming River & loved it. I actually prefer it: no person holding a sign that you must follow. Instead, you download an app with maps of every town. The meals were excellent. The beverage package is optional & good at lunch & dinner for wine, beer & soft drinks. We had a suite which was quite nice as were the lounge, sundeck, dining room etc. They had a guest musician on board who has had great success in the music business & performed as well as mingled easily with other guests. Having the owners on board made it less impersonal & we made many friends with the 90 guests onboard. I saw the review from someone who has not used this company: I have been on Avalon, AMA, Viking & more, & I will choose Teeming River Cruises next time. In fact, we are booked for a Christmas Market cruise in November: we disembarked 8/25/18 from a Rhine River cruise with Teeming. It is especially good for those who hate being herded around.

There is So much to say about our amazing experience of cruising with Teeming this year. The Royal treatment was given to each guest, & we were so comfortable.
Each city & stop was magical. Evenings on the top deck, sailing in the moonlight, and watching castles pass was a dream. We found many, happy, new friends and shared so many good times. Laughter and relaxation were frequent too! We saw the most amazing sites, learned historical info, & saw castles, cathedrals, and new architecture too!
The timing for touring and meals was well orchestrated. We walked off our delicious cruise meals, took a bus, rode a bicycle taxi, and friends even took a French boat tour! We had creme brûlée in France and schnitzel in Germany. The memories are countless.
The connections during pre and post travel were smooth and simple, thanks to Teeming’s help with flight reservations. We were also given fantastic city tour info on the “Pop” app for daily use during our journey. That was a great benefit. Thanks, Teeming.
The food on the ship is out of this world, and phenomenal. The service is personal and done with great detail. Kudos to the ship’s captain and staff!!
I recommend these cruises to young, old, families, adventure seekers, & even those who might like to rest and stay near the ship when it docks.
Thanks Teeming for a dream week like no other.

We just got back from our Teeming River Cruise. We have 6 children (left them at home�) and have been married 30 years. This was the best vacation we have ever taken! First the cost…we couldn’t have afforded this trip on those other cruise lines. There were only 90 passengers so we met a lot of new friends. The crew who work on the ship are kind and friendly and made us feel like royalty. Kate the cruise director was awesome and I honestly laughed the entire trip, she is so funny!! The food was amazing. The owners Jeff & Gina were on the cruise with us and treated all of us like guests in their home. We stopped in a new town every day and Gina would buy gifts for all of us!! Chocolates put on our pillows at night, wine we watched her buy and share with everyone. The ship was beautiful, wood and crown molding everywhere! We give it ten stars.

Thoroughly enjoyed our cruise with Teeming. The ship and staff were great, food was fabulous and the ports were lots of fun. We particularly liked the self-directed touring which meant we weren’t following around a group of people and restricted where we were going. Loved that flexibility. If you want everything planned for you, then this isn’t the company for you. There was a phone app that was provided that was helpful in getting around the various ports.
We never felt the quality was less or short changed at all. We took a gamble with a new company and were very happy with our decision. We going back with family in the fall for another one. The ship did have a problem with reliable wifi, but worked hard to correct it and did seem to get it corrected by the end of the cruise. We had a SkyRoam device which helped for us.
The price was great and well worth what was delivered.

I would highly recommend Teeming River as an excellent value. It is rare to find a river cruise for the prices that Teeming offers with such high quality. I have traveled the world, cruised at least 35 times and have never met a friendlier or more accommodating staff. The itinerary was wonderful, the interior of the ship presented a warm atmosphere, the room comfortable and the meals well planned and beautifully presented. Being on the small ship, it was possible to become acquainted with many of the other passengers and feel the comradery with them. If you are looking for the perfect river cruising experience, check out Teeming River cruises.

This cruise was amazing and we will definitely travel again with Teeming River Cruises! I traveled with my daughter and this trip was our first river cruise. It really exceeded our expectations. The ship was beautiful – very classic and elegant. We enjoyed the deck despite the cold, as blankets were provided. The food was outstanding – so many options at breakfast and lunch and the dinner was wonderful. The staff was always so attentive and cheerful, and Jeff and Gina were very engaged with everyone and helpful. We loved all of the towns we stopped at, and it was very easy to explore the port cities as well as travel inland a little by train. The entire trip was very relaxing and we felt like we saw so much but were never rushed. We will definitely book another river cruise with this company.

This trip was my first river cruise and we will certainly join Teeming River Cruises on another trip in the future! This cruise really was an amazing experience for my daughter and me. I did not really know what to expect in the way of accommodations and food. The ship was incredible, very elegant, and we loved sitting on the ship’s deck (despite the cold, as blankets were provided!). The food was excellent and there were so many options at breakfast and lunch, and then the dinners were wonderful. The staff was so attentive, always cheerful. Jeff and Gina were always engaged with passengers and so helpful. We loved the itinerary, too. It was so simple to explore the towns and venture farther inland by train. We will definitely be back!

We’ve been on a good number of cruises and river cruised once before. We booked this cruise based on the price and that we got a direct flight from Chicago to Amsterdam, March 2018. The boat was clean and housekeeping was twice a day. With 80 +/- passengers, friendships were made quickly. The hotel staff was accommodating and informative. Entertainment was ad hoc and a very good piano player, no Broadway shows. The food and wait-staff were the best we’ve experienced. Very well prepared and choices to satisfy everyone. The food alone was worth the cost.
The price difference is the result of eliminating scheduled tours at every port. We stopped in two large ports, Rotterdam and Antwerp. We ubered/taxied/walked, from the boat, to the areas of interest and explored at our leisure. At the smaller ports, we used the POP app which directed us to points of interest. The savings more that paid for our exploration.
Teeming RC is very new to cruising and are trying to find their niche, appealing to travelers who like independence, not ones who want organized tours. It fit our style of sightseeing.
Teeming owner Jeff and several members of his staff were on this cruise also. He asked many of us for suggestions and concerns. He’s very involved and interested in improving his product. His staff will be capable of give first hand information when questioned.
Bottom line, this was the best value for the money. And, unequaled in food variety, quality and service. We plan to cruise with them again.

I have now been on 2 cruises with Teeming River Cruises. I read some of the entries above – and want to let you know personally my experiences. I am a very experienced traveler and have cruised and toured all over the world my entire life. I’ve been on various cruise lines such as Viking, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Norwegian, Holland, …. I absolutely loved everything about the Teeming River Cruise experience. The food was far superior from any other cruise line and the itinerary was wonderful. I found the other guests to be experienced travelers and lots of fun to be with. Jeff and Gina know how to put a fun group together. They obviously put a lot of thought into the itinerary and timing as each stop left time to explore and then time on the ship to enjoy the river cruising. I give them the highest rating possible. You won’t be disappointed. I am planning on returning on them on one of the August trips. I know other passengers are already booked with them again, too.

We traveled on the Teeming River Cruise in March of this year– first-time cruisers with few expectations.
Overall we were delighted with the accommodations, food, service, stops and fellow travelers. It surpassed our vision and encouraged us to think about other possibilities.
The ship is older and smaller than many vessels used by others. This is a plus in that there is more wood than plastic, more evocative of the pleasures of the past and a great deal of passenger interaction. The rooms are small but well and thoughtfully furnished and serviced. The public areas (lounge/bar, dining room) were adequately sized for all to be accommodated. The food was uniformly excellent and varied with a “comfortable continental” perspective and the wines drinkable but not overwhelming.
Staffing, from the crew through the tour support team, was welcoming, warm and comfortable. They were responsive without being obsequious. The stops were open and allowed passengers to pursue their own interests (ours were museums and architecture) and we were never herded, harangued or hassled.
We have recommended this to neighbors and friends already and are convinced that it is a good fit for informal folks who want comfort but not coddling and like making their own path.

The ability to not be able to use Wi-Fi most of the time was the biggest pitfall. Other than that, the staff was amazing and the meals on board were exceptional! I have recommended this cruise to everyone that I talk with regarding it. Thanks.

I just returned from the 9-day Tulips and Windmind Tour with Teeming and it was FABULOUS!!! The ship was beautiful and the crew, over the top! The owners Jeff and Gina cruised along with us and made sure that every detail was attended to. Jeff and Gina live in Winter Park, FL, so they KNOW how to present a Cruise with CLASS! The food was wonderful and served (no buffet for dinner) only Breakfast and Lunch. The reason their cruise prices are considerably lower is that all of the excursions are Al-La-Cart. So you have the flexibility to pick and choose what you want to do. Trust me – THERE were NO cutting corners on Quality. As others have said – You get what you pay for IS True! But with Teeming – You get What you Pay for, But ONLY Pay for what you want,! their motto is Get MORE for LESS – and Its SOO True!
Happy Sailing – And Book with confidence with Teeming!

I am excited to write a review for Teeming! We had a great experience from booking to disembarking. Cruising the river was amazing and being with Teeming was like icing on the cake. I would strongly recommend traveling with them – personable, confident, relaxing, and fun, fun, fun, fun…just a few words that come to mind. Looking forward to going again soon, anywhere they are going!

Hi, I traveled on Teeming River Cruises’ maiden voyage from July 21-Aug.4, Amsterdam to Budapest. It was wonderful. The owners of the company, Jeff and Gina, have the goal to make the experience as reasonable in cost as possible, without sacrificing quality. (They were on this first cruise, and are delightful and hard working.) I am not sure of all the ways the low price was accomplished. But some things that helped were an a la carte approach taken for many things. Passengers could choose to opt in and pay for tours of port stops. If one would rather explore independently, one did not pay for the tour. Also, there was not a free, unlimited bar, which suited us well. Coffee and tea were always available without charge.
The ship, the Royal Crown, was not new, but it had a wonderful atmosphere and was comfortably luxurious. The captain, cruise director, and the ship’s staff were all amazing. We had a lower priced room, and it was lovely. The ship was very clean and the rooms were serviced twice daily. The staff was cheerful and hardworking. The food was wonderful, and there was a large selection presented elegantly. Our daughter had no problems eating gluten free and lactose intolerant.
Overall, other passengers were also very pleased.
I would not be afraid to travel with them again, and many of the passengers plan to do so on the upcoming March trip leaving from Amsterdam. I imagine it will fill up quickly, as the Royal Crown with Captain Hans are on the schedule.

My wife and I just returned from Budapest after Teeming River Cruises maiden river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest on the Rhine, Main, and Danube Rivers.
We are not going to repeat what was said in the above #9 comment but TOTALLY AGREE WITH THE ASSESSMENT with everything that was written.
We have taken many ocean cruises before but wanted to take this river cruise for a long time but couldn’t afford the going rate. Teeming has just opened up a new idea for river cruising which they call “a la carte” and it made all the difference for us in affordability. We had some friends take the one week cruise from Nuremberg to Budapest with a different river cruise company, at the same time we took our cruise and paid considerably more than we did for our two-week cruise.
The trip was an absolute delightful experience for us and look forward to taking another with them very soon.
Welcome to a new way of River Cruising that may help to bring down the prices of the more expensive cruise companies. Look up “Teeming River Cruises” online to get an idea of what is being offered and pricing that is very reasonable for river cruising.

We also just returned from The 14 night Amsterdam to Budapest Teeming River Cruise that began July 21. We are experienced cruisers having done 40 ocean cruises and one previous river cruise on Viking. When we booked the Teeming cruise we were a little worried that the quality of the ship, service ,or food would be low because of the low price of the cruise. However, we were very pleased that everything about this cruise was first rate. Every bit as good or better than Viking ( which we also enjoyed).
Teeming is able to keep the price low primarily by not including the tours in the base price. Tours were available as an option and were very fairly priced. On a river cruise in Europe, you often dock in the center of town and don’t need transportation. Teeming had a port lecture prior to each stop and also provided a free City Guide app with GPS mapping that once it was loaded did not required an internet connection. So this was perfect for us as we are experienced independent travelers. Most fellow passengers did a mixture of tour days and independent days. Even if you bought every tour the price is a fraction of the mainstream cruise lines such as Viking.
Beer , wine and soft drinks were included with lunch and dinner. Drinks purchased at the bar were fairly priced.
The staff was excellent.
We are looking forward to booking another Teeming River Cruise.

I recently returned from a 14 night Amsterdam to Budapest river cruise on Teeming River Cruises. I booked it because of the excellent price but I was concerned that the quality might be low. Since this was their first cruise there was very limited information on what to expect. However, I can say without reservation that this was a great cruise experience. I had previously done one Viking River Cruise and over 40 ocean cruises. The Teeming cruise was every bit as nice in all areas as the Viking. They save cost by not including excursions. Some excursions are available for a reasonable extra cost. If you are somewhat a do it yourself type traveler this is a great cruise line. There were some ports you had to walk 20-30 min to town where Viking or others would probably bus you. But thats how Teeming cut down a lot of cost. They would call a taxi for you if that was an issue which it was for a couple of people with mobility problems. So even if you taxied everywhere and/or took all of the optional excursions the great value was still there. They are new and growing so they will only have a couple of cruises in Europe next year but I would certainly recommend taking a look a Teeming.

I was on this maiden voyage and it surpassed all my expectations! I loved the fact that there were only 90 passengers and about 20 crew. We all got to know each other and I made a point of meeting all the other passengers. I’m sure I’ve made some new friends and I was so pleased to see them again in this video. You can’t go wrong going on a Teeming cruise. I’m telling all my friends how they missed out on the July 2017 cruise but that they should try one next year. My hat is off to all concerned- the Paglialongas, the crew and the wonderful cruise director Kate and all the wonderful passengers. This was a trip of a life-time, a real bucket list opportunity and I’m glad I did it.

Yes. Went on their July 14 day cruise. It was fabulous and worth every penny spent. Not sure if they are using the same boat but the ms crown was fantastic in an old world charm style.

My wife and I went in June. The trip was from Amsterdam to Budapest. There are not enough superlatives to give to this trip. The boat, although refurbished, was absolutely beautiful in design and detail. Teeming River staff worked extremely hard to ensure that everyone had a spectacular time. The itinerary of stops were a great representation of the cities/towns in the various cultures. I will unequivocally endorse this company and trip. I have already e-mailed all my friends so they can take advantage of this cruise.
The price, although made one skeptical of a potential scam, was legitimate. The ship help 90 passengers with very comfortable quarters. The chef prepared great meals and the beer and wine flowed liberally. Do not hesitate to use this company. I know we can’t wait to participate in their next adventure.

We also took this first trip with Teeming and it was everything that was quoted and a lot more, no bull, good people well organized great food and excellent crew and staff. Not skimpy with the drinks at meal time and reasonable prices at the bar and deck. We are also well traveled and the optional tours suited us fine. We did do the concert in Vienna and it was excellent and was very reasonably priced. Being Australian we hate required gratuities ( owners should pay a fair base wage) but in this case, they were worth it. Congratulations Jeff, Top trip and exceptional value and have already recommended Teeming River cruises to friends and rellys.

My wife and I decided to take this cruise on the “Royal Crown” to celebrate our anniversary. The price was excellent, so, we decided to take our first river cruise. A lot different than an ocean cruise. First of all, much more intimate atmosphere, when you only have about 90 people on board. While tours were available for a price, I loved the idea that we could make our own arrangements and walk around the small towns without being forced into groups. The ship docked in the middle of town for the most part, so, walking around was not a problem. And on those occasions, when needed, they arranged for transportation. Meals were excellent, top notch, prepared by chefs who at times came out to mingle with guests. The ship had a very classy, old world look, so, it was comfortable and felt luxurious. One of the highlights was the cruise director, Kate Barella, who gave port talks before each stop, and was very helpful to all. The captain and crew were very open and accommodating, mingling with guests. I would say that this was an exceptionally great experience…capped by a beautiful concert in Vienna, at the Arsenal, arranged specifically for the passengers of the Royal Crown.

We also traveled on the maiden voyage with Teeming River Cruises and cannot speak highly enough of our experience and the team.
There is nothing that we can imagine could have been better. The ship for this cruise was delightful, the furnishings classically excellent and the entire trip left me feeling very honored to have been able to be one of the first ever to experince Teeming River Cruises.
We have already booked for their March 18 tour.
Don’t let anyone tell you that you are better off paying twice as much to enjoy plastic stacking chairs on the top deck with a well-known brand. You cannot do better than this!

Tom and I went on this Maiden Voyage with Teeming this summer and we were completely impressed with the service, the staff, the meals, the price, the entertainment, the excursions, the options, the accommodations, the counties/villages/cities we visited (5 countries, 15 cities, 15 days) and the atmosphere Teeming River Cruises created. We met the sweetest people, had the most interesting conversations and were razzled and dazzled by an incredible and entertaining staff. We fell completely in love with the cruise director and the captain, who felt like family by the end of the voyage ~ it was sad to say goodbye! We loved the impromptu comedy nights put on by the guests, daily destination talks and scheduled entertainment they provided! To Tea or not to Tea was the only question we struggled with daily and all our troubles faded away ~ it was just incredible! We travel A LOT We’ve been to Europe several times and cruised too many times to count and this was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. Floating by history, meadows, farms, small villages, ancient castles and age-old forts was simply magical. Engaging in the land tours that interested us was incredibly enlightening and very interesting ~ but taking a break when we wanted to and strolling the quaint villages, stumbling upon the best food we ever tasted was just so satisfying and restorative. The boat we cruised upon, The Royal Crown, was so elegant and romantic and we were so happy this boat was chosen for this voyage, it complimented the all the beauty we were surrounded by and its own history enriched the history we were discovering. Jeffrey Paglialonga and Gina Paglialonga you should be exceptionally proud. Your Maiden Voyage was beyond our expectations and we thank you for showing us a beautiful glimpse of our wonderful world! Every little nuance of your care and thoughtful amenities did not go unnoticed and it made the trip even more unbelievable. Congratulations on becoming one of the fastest and most successful small companies according to Inc. Magazine !!! We are so proud of you!

We traveled with Teeming on their Amsterdam to Budapest cruise back in June last year and I have only one word for it. FABULOUS
Many of the (90 only) passengers had previously traveled with some of the biggest names in the game and spent a vast sum of money and without exception, every one of them said this was better!
DO NOT be afraid of this company and experience. We are due to travel again with them in March and are thoroughly looking forward to it.
GO FOR IT!!!!
