One of the best cruise i have had the opportunity ti enjoy all the way it from the cruise staff, cruise tours, cruise cabin, entertainment, and every else!. In addition the tours were fantastic and the tour guide were have a lots of knowledge and expertise on their areas and the history of their countries. From the moment I stepped onboard the Hlin, the Viking River Cruise staff made it their ...
The total experience is wonderful. From the very start when we were on the dock, Viking saw to our every need. The food is excellent. The atmosphere on board the ship is relaxed. The dinning is relax and free form. The tours offered on the ship were first class. I have take other tours in Europe and have had guides with PhD conduct tours. The guides that Viking provided were just as skilled as ...
There were a lot of great reviews about Viking River cruises and the price was right! The whole staff were very friendly and courteous. I loved that one free excursion was included in the price of the cruise! The logistics had an easy flow to them and not stressful at all. It was very well organized. There were also talks included in the afternoons that were very educational. The food was good and ...
From the moment I stepped onboard the Hlin, the Viking River Cruise staff made it their mission to ensure my vacation was enjoyable in every way. I spent three days in Amsterdam before my cruise and highly recommend the additional days to anyone taking the Rhine River cruise. After my final morning touring the city, embarkation was made easy by the Viking staff, and my bags were promptly delivered ...
We have seen VIking Cruises advertised for years and have had it as a goal since our last European vacation 5 years ago. Although it seemed like such an expensive extravagance, since cruising we realize what an exceptional value it is. We were offered free airfare and that convinced us to do it. And we are so happy we did!
We went to Amsterdam on our own 2 days ahead of the cruise. It was ...
This was a family/friends group of 25 multi-generational and widely diverse persons traveling together (ages 18-82). We choose the Rhine Getaway Amsterdam/Basel for our 1 week journey with post-Lake Lucerne. With such a wide range of ages, as well as backgrounds, I wasn't sure it would appeal or be equally enjoyed by all - HOWEVER, each and everyone of us were beyond thrilled with the entire ...
This was our first river cruise and we weren't sure what to expect. Not to worry. The 7 day cruse down the Rhine was everything we expected and more. The cruise director (Daniel) was one of the highlights of the cruise. He was funny and engaging and always so helpful with any problem we might have. He should get a raise. The level of service was absolutely wonderful. And the side trips were ...
Friends of ours were going and we said we wanted to go, too. Neither my husband nor I had ever been on a cruise or wanted to, but this sounded fascinating and we said, let's go. And we had a terrific time. The accommodations were terrific. The tours and all the tour guides were excellent. The entire staff were all excellent. (Sorry, if I keep using the same adjective, but what can I do, when ...
This was our second Viking cruise and it was every bit as enjoyable as our first! Our first cruise was on the Danube in December, visiting Christmas markets along the way. This time we wanted to enjoy the outside decks in warmer weather.
Embarkation was like coming home! We were familiar with the layout and rhythms of the ship and the staff make us feel welcome and comfortable. I asked about a ...
From meeting at the airport to departure the crew were very attentive but not overbearing. Being physically challenged I expected challenges getting around on the ship and ports of call. They will tailor everything to meet you abilities and desire to see the most. Even if you bite off more than you can handle they will rescue you with dignity and not raise a fuss. Yes they upfront cost may ...
