Editor’s Take

Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary.

Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.

Many Douro River Cruise reviews focus on the customer service they experienced aboard the ship, the quality of the pre- and post-hotels, and the tour guides.

Some travelers expressed disappointment about the limited time spent at a key destination, but overall most travelers said the tour guides knowledge and care of the travelers makes the difference for people stating that the tour and cruise was memorable and that they want to take another vacation in the destination or with the cruise as soon as possible.

When reading the reviews watch for what matters to you, what rings true to you in the reviews and how you are responding to what you are reading, but also pay attention to red flags or warnings. Be critical of the critic and keep your eyes open for others raising similar concerns or raving similarly.
