Viking Europe Cruise Reviews

We were traveling to Berlin for a wedding and, since we would already be in Berlin, we decided to add a river cruise for after the wedding. After looking at the different offerings, we found this Viking cruise to fit very nicely with our schedule. In fact, we added 2 days on the front end to see more of Berlin before embarking on the Astrid. Viking staff were very accommodating and helpful in ...

We had to choose something as we had paid for a cruise to Kiev and other places in the Ukraine and into the Black Sea. Obviously, it was canceled the moment when Putin fired the first shot. Viking did not offer us a monetary return. We didn't fight it, and we decided to take this trip to Belgium and the Netherlands as these places are ones we haven't visited previously (other than ...

We had a wonderful Rhine cruise from Switzerland to Amsterdam. There were interesting tours and sightseeing everyday. The top three tour highlights: The medeival city of Colmar, the cathedral in Cologne, and Strasbourg. The afternoon of crusing down the Rhine and seeing all the castles was also wonderful. The ship was modern and clean, and the service from the crew was all outstanding. ...

Hadn’t been on the Elbe and wanted to tour Wittenburg, so this itinerary fit our ambitions well. The tour of Wittenburg was very well done. The entire trip was great and right up there with Viking standards. Food was excellent and the Viking staff very attentive. The stateroom was outstanding, with nice beds and bathroom facilities. The ship wifi functioned perfectly. It was nice seeing ...

Great cruise from start to finish. We had no problems with low water as we were cruising the last week of September. Viking included an excursion for each port. The included excursions were great usually a walking tour of the town which included the church then there was time to browse on your own.. I also purchased some optional tours. Our favorites were the optional food tour in Strasburg and ...

We had a cruise cancelled at the beginning of the pandemic so we used the credit to take this longer cruise. Other than the awful Viking Air service, the cruise itself, especially the crew, was outstanding. The most enjoyable parts were extra shore excursions that were in very small groups, especially the "vigorous" hikes. However, I wouldn't call any of the hikes vigorous (and I'm 68 though I do ...

This cruise was intended to be our 40 th anniversary but becasue of covid was delayed two years. as usual with viking we had no trouble getting off the plane and to the ship. our ship was docked about four blocks from the eiffel tower. we were able to walk there after dinner on the day we arrived. the tours on the ship were well paced without all of the early wake ups that can sometimes be a ...

We can’t say enough great things about Viking and this wonderful cruise. From the time we stepped off the plane and embarked the Skadi in Amsterdam to the time we disembarked in Budapest, everything was top notch. All the crew was friendly and went out of their way to make our stay pleasant. All the tours were extremely informative and fun. I recommend the Cologne Beer Dinner and Culture ...
