I am originally from Trinidad and Tobago and my wife is from Palo Alto, California. We live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. This was our first trip with Viking and most of the cities/places we visited is on my bucket list. We did the pre-cruise in Prague and continued on from Nuremberg through Regensburg, Passau, Melk, Vienna,to Budapest. Traveling through so many beautiful towns and sights on the way along with the visiting all these cities was breathtaking and very informative. Living and partying with the other travelers on the ship was one we would never forget. We have made so many friends from various places and we have kept in touch with many of them.The friendly and efficient staff along with the informal atmosphere will always be remembered. Port and shore excursions were very well organized and informative. We'd like to do a river cruise again with Viking but another destination. Viking did a wonderful job of booking my Flight Itinerary to and from Europe with a stopover in England.
