Welcome abroad MS Inspire. When you make your way onto ms Inspire, climb to the top deck and take a moment to look over the rails and glance out as the riverbanks pass you by. Then, turn around and join back into the festivities, grabbing a cool drink and enjoying the company of loved ones and new friends, ready for the adventures that await. Maintaining Tauck’s high standards for quality and comfort, ms Inspire cruises exclusively for Tauck on the Danube River as part of the Destination Fleet. With a maximum of 130 guests, the 443-foot riverboat and her sister ships continue tradition of providing more space per guest on Europe’s inland waterways, transporting fewer passengers than most long ships (135 meters). Her deck plan is innovative, with a total of 67 cabins, the most popular cabins tend to be largest... so cruise have used the added ship length to offer twenty-two 300-square-foot Tauck Suites – the most of any river cruise ship on any European river. To increase the amount of natural sunlight on the lower deck, cruise created 8 loft cabins that extend from the first to the second decks, providing guests with an additional view, all windows in these loft cabins open.
