Rare notamermaid Posted June 3, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Hello, I have recently seen the Lord Byron sailing on the Rhine and really liked the vessel from the outside. As booking and sailing with this UK-based company is feasible for me can anybody tell me anything about the company and the new ship called the MS William Shakespeare? The only info I can find is this review: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1931673&highlight=riviera+travel Thanks. notamermaid Weather update: We are enjoying lovely Spring days on the Rhine with warm temperatures, not much rain and still enough water for comfortable sailing!

Grandma of Lily Posted June 3, 2014 #2 Share Posted June 3, 2014 We sailed on the Lord Byron last July on their Rhine & Moselle cruise. The ship is designated a 5* and was brand new at that time. Both the Lord Byron and the William Shakespeare were made by Scylla AG and the interiors are identical. Riviera is a long-established British company who provide a good product at a reasonble price. They didn't do any optional excursions and we felt the qualityoverall was not as good as on a previous Avalon cruise. But as I said in my review we got what we paid for. I would sail with them again.
