Thursday: My first European river cruise experience began with an easy journey by rail with Eurostar from Ebbsfleet to Lille where I connected with a TGV to Lyon. On arrival Lyon Part Dieu railway station I was met by a chauffeur (all part of Tauck’s seamlessall-inclusive* package) and transferred to “Swiss Emerald”, which would remain berthed at Lyon until 1830 the following day. * A very important point to make is that Tauck pays all its employees a living wage – so tipping is not only unnecessary but discouraged! Within five minutes of boarding I was ensconced in my Category 3 stateroom which, with its floor-to-ceiling windows was more comfortable and better equipped than most accommodation I have experienced aboard large ocean-going cruise ships.
