About ms Savor
ms Savor is a Tauck cruise ship of the Inspiration class, in service since 2014. She carries 130 guests with a crew of 44. She sails Danube itineraries. We rate her 3.7 out of 5.
ms Savor was the second Inspiration class riverboat, following ms Inspire into the Tauck fleet in 2014, and was renovated in 2020. The 135-meter boat carries up to 130 guests with a crew of 44, in a layout of 67 cabins that includes 22 Tauck Suites of 300 square feet and eight loft cabins on the lowest deck. Like ms Inspire, she was designed with Arthur's, a casual second restaurant named for then-chairman Arthur Tauck Jr., alongside the main dining room, The Compass Rose. Her season is spent on the Danube: Heart of the Danube between Bavaria and Budapest, The Blue Danube from Prague, Christmas markets cruises from Vienna and the Tauck Bridges family sailings on the river.
