Viking Paris Cruise Reviews

I cannot say enough about Viking Cruises but that's because I don't have enough pages. They truly aim to give you the best experience. The Program Directors must work tirelessly to coordinate all they have to offer. I always feel safe and guided from the time I get off the plane where someone is waiting for me to transport me and my bags where I need to be, through the sailing experience which is ...

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 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. ...

What a wonderful way to see Paris and the Heart of Normandy! This was our first Viking cruise and it was just magical. We honestly couldn’t think of a better way to do it. Viking goes out of your way to make you feel at home when away from home. We are in our late 30s and had such a wonderful time meeting people of all different ages, there truly is something for everyone. Every excursion was an ...

Based on previous cruises, I always choose Viking if I am able to align a sailing/itinerary with my specific BucketList destination. This is trip was specifically booked to allow me to toast my 76th Birthday from the top of the Eiffel Tower. The other stops & activities (including the 3-day Pre-extension) were my icing-on-the-cake visits to as many French classic tourist destinations as ...

All the day trips were fun and amazing. Learned a lot, enjoyed the sights and got my money's worth. The room was very cramped, but manageable. Although the adds go on about a lot of crafts and cooking classes there was only one of each...a glass blower that was more of a sales event and one poorly done cooking demonstration. The crew was fantastic, but in the evenings, other than chatting and ...

We chose this river cruise so that we could see Paris, the Normandy countryside, and visit Omaha Beach without having to drive or lodge in multiple hotels. It was great to have the cruise and excursions in English as well. Everything went according to plan, and we enjoyed the trip immensely. Pickup from and return to the airport were extremely helpful and the service on the ship was very good. The ...

The hotels in Paris and Zurich were very nice. No complaints with baggage handling or airport transfers. Viking had a tour desk in both of the hotels, which was handy and useful for answering questions or concerns. Communication with our tour director was very good. We were kept well-informed of all necessary information, pertinent times, tour instructions, etc. I liked the fact that the ...

My wife and I are not into the party scene but wanted to do something special for our 25th anniversary. We decided a riverboat cruise was best for us and the Paris to Normandy itinerary fit our bucket list. A delay in getting my passport renewed resulted in the Louvre being sold out, our first day optional tour. No problem though. When we arrived at the boat, having been met as we passed ...

Our previous experiences with Viking had all been better than we anticipated and this was one of the best ever. There were almost seamless issues from the pickup at the airport, the drive to the cruise dock, the warm welcome at registration, the light buffett offered in the lounge and the final access to stateroom . Always attention to detail, awsome and friendly service and a very relaxing ...
