Budapest to Europe - River Cruise Reviews

We hopped on this cruise as a last minute addition to a 3 month holiday in Europe. Our cruise was at the end of a busy season with low water in the rivers. We were lucky to be able to do the entire trip cruising. We could not have asked for a better experience. The crew were amazing, the boat was beautifully fitted out and kept immaculate, so much food at a fabulous standard and the on board ...

The cruise itself was phenomenal but the staff made it truly special. The crew members were extremely warm and kind. The attention to detail was spot on. There were 3 restaurants on the Amamagna. The food was delicious. There were plenty of options and it was good quality. The app made it easy to keep track of our schedule and we also had a daily itinerary with the times delivered ...

Having lived in Germany for three years several years ago, we loved the Christmas season and markets. Our first Viking cruise was from Nuremberg to Budapest in 2019 - pre-COVID. We were so impressed that we decided to take another trip. The Christmas market trip was a "whim" trip so that we could visit and re-visit the Christmas markets. This time, we traveled from Budapest to Regensburg and ...

Second time sailing with Amawaterways, and of course it was a delight. The cruise manager made it really special as well as the hotel manager, his staff and the captain and crew. I wish I can name each one of them and thank them individually. Had been in over 15 cruises, but Ama does it differently. Great itinerary, great excursion options, super meals and attention to detail. By the ...

First time in a river cruise and the experience was awesome inside and outside of the ship.

We chose this cruise as we had to cancel it three years ago due to Covid. From the moment we took our cases to the boat early the staff were fantastic. We were given an update to our room on arrival (better position in the boat). The food was fantastic and the service throughout was above expectations. Our particular thanks must go to the best cruise director ever in Roland, he was always ...

Having traveled the Rhine and having a great experience last year, we were excited for our second Viking Longship journey. For 2023 we picked the Danube Waltz and chose to extend our vacation by starting in Budapest a couple of days early and ending in Prague. These extensions were also booked through Viking. Super easy to plan, top notch accommodations, and superior service -from picking us up at ...
