    I love that you're highlighting such a small independent company, in an industry dominated by these leviathan ships owned by huge venture capital firms.

      It is really really lovely to cruise with a family run business, you see how much they really care and it makes a big difference 😀

    My wife and I were SO DISAPPOINTED - we JUST missed you! We hopped on the Merlijn right after you left, on the Mittellandkanal across from the VW Autostadt. We booked the Merlijn based on your video from last year. It was amazing as we went from Wolfsburg to Berlin. I think everyone on the ship had seen your video and were there based on your experience!

      Skiving? We call it a mental health day. I like bunking in too that is a jammie day (pajamas)

    What a cute little ship. A cyclist dream cruise! The food looks 10 times better than a lot of the big cruise ships. I loved this experience for you and your dad 🫶🏻

    Its obvious Emma LOVED this cruise and would probably book it again in a heartbeat. Havent seen her this surprised and excited to talk about a river boat cruise like this in a long time. When you get on a boat this small and the owners are also doing the dishes, you realize they cannot compete on price with the bigger cruise companies so they win you over with service and hospitality. Seems like they won the entire guests over.

    My husband loves cycling, I will occasionally suffer the saddle for his benefit. This looks like it would be an excellent introduction to cruising for both of us. He could have people to cycle with, I could see lots of sights onboard, on foot, or on a bike. And neither of us would be overwhelmed by large crowds. Plus supporting a family-run small business! Thanks, Emma!

    • @Cloxxki
      @Cloxxki 11 месяцев назад +4

      Do it! Book the e-bike and when your bum needs a rest, skip the day. Seems epic to have the ship to yourself making it to the next place where the cyclist hop back on.

    Emma - found your channel during covid and while I have no desire to do an ocean cruise, I’ve enjoyed watching your experiences. When I found the original video you did on the Merlijin last summer I decided that this was the cruise for me. My husband and I are going next week and I am very excited. Thank you so much for sharing your passion for cruises.

    So glad you had a father daughter cruise. I hope it brought you two closer. Did the barge owners remember you from last year? At least you were better prepared, equipment wise, this time around AND your camera\phone survived unlike last year. I can't believe it been a year since you been on this cruise which means I've been following you for at least a year.

    This looked so cool. So different from a typical cruise that calling it a cruise doesn't really describe what it is. And they had a Captain Hudson !!! 😃

    @PortsladeBySea Год назад +5

    Excellent vlog. Your Dad did an amazing job enjoying all that cycling. It’s funny to think that when you had a well earned rest day he carried on cycling!
    My wife and I have owned e-bikes for many years. They make cycling up the big hills in Brighton easy to climb. Must admit other road users in the UK are much less bike friendly 🫢🚴🏽‍♂️🏥
    In 2025 we are going on a Viking River Cruise from
    Amsterdam to Basel and have booked a houseboat in Amsterdam for two nights before we board the river boat. Can’t wait! 👍

    I call it skiving - never heard bunking off! =D
    I *love* the pockets on the back of my cycling jerseys!
    Once upon a time 25 years ago we lived in Germany. My son was 3 years old and we signed him up for a little preschool. They told me to pick him up at half ten. You can guess what happened. At 10am when I'm getting ready to pick him up and thinking I will be early, I got a phone call from a very concerned preschool who were worried I hadn't picked my son up yet. Oops. And that's where I learned that "half ten" meant nine thirty. =D.
    Absolutely fantastic video! Thank you! I'm sending this to my husband and fingers crossed he loves the idea too.

    However the bikes would be a no for me! (But maybe an e-bike.😂) I supposed I could have lounged during the morning and go on the evening town tours. Nice to see the owner was so flexible with the food. I would think this was a good cruise for solos, since it was such a small group. So nice that they donated their mattresses to Ukraine. Congratulations on cycling on such a long time journey!

    I really want to do a river cruise but sadly I doubt I’ll ever find one that’s accessible. Will have to live through these videos. Beautiful barge, so nicely decorated. That price for a 7 night cruise is AMAZING, I was genuinely expecting you to say double that and could easily see how it could be that. Wow. Such great value

    • @EmmaCruises

    What a cruise, what an operation. That's not a job for the crew, it's a lifestyle.
    I can't understand how so many passengers and crew fit on there.
    Delighted to hear you've tipped the crew thoroughly.
    Seems a more costly option to cruise, but more of a VIP experience than you'd get even on the superyacht, in a way. And totally different waters and excursions.

    I rented an E-bike last year and it was the first time I was able to keep up with my BF (experienced mountain biker) in the hills without having to dismount and walk uphill 🤗 It was great! I would definately rent an E-bike again if I have to cycle in hills again 🤗

    Thank you Emma for a very interesting video. It looks like a very beautiful ship with a wonderful crew. I like the way the cruise was organised with the cycling tours. I am past cycling now but love the concept. All the best from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺

    Looks like a great trip. I took a "large" riverboat cruise on the Rhine and it was amazing. Even cozier would be unforgettable. As long as you never cruise anything as tiny as the "Titan" I'm interested.

    Great video. I'm a little too old for that much cycling, but I'd love to cruise on a German Barge. I love Germany.

    Love this video! Good to know there are alternative choices. BTW: "Adelaar" also means "Hard Worker", being this was a sand vehicle, I guess this translation makes more sense than "owl". Keep up the good work!!

    Münster❤❤ my „Heimat“, it means more than just „home“. Thanks for this video, I‘m interested in river cruises. Although I‘m from Germany I haven‘t seen much of the country… The Merlijn sounds perfect for everybody who likes to spend their vacation on board a ship but also wants to discover the country by bike.

    That looks like such a fun tour! I am so glad you liked Münster so much, that's my home town! You tend to forget how impressive the long history is if it's just the place where you or your family live, but that is indeed a great cycling area! So many good German impressions on this trip, I'm glad to hear you had a great experience!

      I agree, I live quite close to Stonehenge but never been, isn’t interesting to me but people come from all over to see it 🤣

    You seemed like you really enjoyed this cruise. The barge looked very interesting and a cruise worth doing. Also by your video this seemed a lot more personable than large cruise ships.
