Viking Europe Cruise Reviews

From buying the trip, to working with Viking on excursions, extensions, and airfare, the whole process was smooth as silk. It was to be my first cruise and I didn’t care too much where we went, but it was on my friend’s bucket list to visit Normandy, so Paris to Normandy was a perfect fit for the group of us. I now love river cruises as they take all the hard work of planning off your shoulders. ...

We wanted to visit as many countries as we could, and by traveling on the Rhine with Viking, we were able to experience four countries. From the moment we got to our boat we never had to do a thing again with our luggage, dinner plans or sightseeing. Everything was orchestrated to perfection. Viking has plenty of experience making the guest feel like they are number 1, and you truly can ...

This is our third Viking River cruise. The last two were 8 day cruises and we wanted to try something a bit longer. As usual we were met at the Budapest airport by Viking staff and they expeditiously got us and our luggage to the Skirnir. WE were shown to our suite by Ole Christensen the Hotel Manager and given a tour of the suites features and operations. This was the start of a cruise where ...

The ports were great and we wanted to try a river cruise . The food was not good and if we didn’t like lunch which we did not, there was nothing other than cookies until dinner. Breakfast was good. Only 2 dinners were good. We actually lost weight on the cruise. Also not enough staff in the dining room. Cruise director and excursions were great. Great tour guides! Staff was excellent at ...

I recently embarked on a Rhine River cruise from Amsterdam to Basel with Viking. Although I vacationed in Europe for a month, the Viking cruise was the highlight of my trip. Everything about the cruise was beyond my expectations but I cannot say enough about the staff whether it was in the dining room, cleaning attendant for my room, front desk, etc. Viking absolutely hires the very best…they ...

I was going to be in Germany visiting family, and wanted to explore more of the region, and really wanted to go back to Heidelberg. This cruise offered it all. Not only did I see some new, beautiful areas, but enjoyed revisiting some. The included tours made it easy to have time to ourselves to explore on our own. The staff is welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable. The captain was engaging ...

This has been a bucket list trip for me for over 40 years and it did not disappointment. The crew on the ship was fantastic and the guides were extremely knowledgeable. It was nice coming back to the same place every night and not having to pack/unpack everyday. The port talks every afternoon were informative and helpful. The food was awesome and service was excellent. Our cabin steward was ...

We love Viking River cruises. This was our third cruise and can’t wait to sign up for our next one. Our cruise director Andrew was fantastic. He was so kind when I was dealing with being motion sick offering to get me some ginger to help relieve my symptoms. Andrew was a delight on board as well. He was always smiling and made us laugh often. The chef prepared fantastic meals. We ate too much. ...

My husband and I had never cruised when relatives convinced us to join them on Viking's Rhine Get Away. Our experience was amazing. Without any effort on our part every need was met, day planned, meal presented, and fun experienced. We were met at the airport and guided to our ship. Our bags were taken care of and deposited in our suite. Everything was the highest quality and the staff was ...

If you are looking for a bucket list trip this is it. The longship was just lovely and we truly enjoyed our Veranda Suite and thought it was well worth the extra money. The staff are just amazing every single one of them. We met so many nice people and everyone was very friendly and welcoming to one another. All the shore excursions we took were very well done except the Cologne Walking Tour ...
