Advice Post-River Cruise Itinerary for Seniors

CultureVoyager said:

It's wonderful to hear about your parents' river cruise! In Amsterdam, a leisurely canal cruise or a visit to the beautiful gardens at Keukenhof (if they're up for it) could be very enjoyable. In Budapest, the thermal baths are relaxing and a unique experience; the Gellért Baths are particularly lovely. Ensuring they have comfortable accommodations and easy access to transport will enhance their experience. Have you considered setting up guided tours that cater to seniors? They often provide a more relaxed pace and ensure safety.

Any specific interests your parents have that could help narrow down the options?
