Okay guys, tell me your favourite river cruise itineraries. And boats.

Ngaire mentioned the Antoinette, which is Uniworld's brand-new, ultra-luxurious ship. I'm very attracted to this. It's doing the Basel-Amsterdam route, which wouldn't be my first choice, but I might be convinced partly because of the boat, but also because we love Amsterdam, and David's never been to Switzerland.

I first started looking at itineraries in France, either Paris to Normandy, or Lyon to Provence, but then begun exploring the Danube. What's everyone's favourites there? Passau or Nuremberg to Budapest, with a pre-stay in Prague, so far is my favourite.

We'd probably travel in September or early October, in 2013.

I'm looking at AMA, Uniworld, Tauck, and will consider Avalon. I feel like Tauck is too pricey for me.
