A relative invited me to go on this cruise, Tulips and Windmills. Since ours was the first cruise of the season, I was able to check in as soon as I arrived late in the morning. The cruise director himself carried my luggage to the cabin! It was quick and easy to register. I am a vegetarian and was pleased with the selections. The outstanding maitre d'hotel checked with me each morning to be sure the daily options were suitable, and they always were. There were pastries for the early risers at the coffee station, and cookies in the afternoon. Food was delicious, especially the breads. The Lofn was one of the newer ships in the fleet and was quite impressive. There were plenty of activities in the evening in the lounge and all were fun.

The best part of the cruise, of course, was the staff. They truly are Viking River Cruise's best ambassadors. Without exception, the crew members were attentive, polite and eager to please, always with smiles on their faces. They would not let us lift a finger. Viking River Cruises are lucky to have such wonderful employees.

The shore cruises were very interesting and the guides were quite knowledgeable. It was quite a "show" to watch the captain and other members of the navigation team maneuver the ship so carefully through the many, narrow locks. The home visit in Hoorn was the high point for me. Our hostess was very pleasant and seemed to enjoy the visit as much as we did.

Cabin B

The cabin was immaculate and surprisingly spacious. There was plenty of room for my luggage, clothes and toiletries. Our maid was so pleasant and could not have been more conscientious.
