Friends had recommended this particular cruise. It was our first Viking and river cruise experience.
The cabin (Explorer Suite) was wonderful. As was the food. But it was just too cold to make use of the sun deck.
Budapest and Vienna were great. Although we are not into classical music, we highly recommend the Vienna concert. It was an excursion highlight. As, of course, all of the Christmas ...
This was our 8th river cruise however the only three were in France on Uniworld and because the other cruises involved small ships there isn’t a good comparison (the Viking Vietnam was outstanding).
We chose this because we had never been in Bulgaria or Romania and like wine! Except for Hungary our earlier experiences were in Yugoslavia in the 70’s so nice to see what had changed.

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 ...
We chose this cruise because of a sale. We had included airfare and a great price so we took the plunge! It was everything you can imagine! We were pampered, fed amazing food, taken on beautiful excursions, had incredible sights from the boat, and made friendships that we treasure! I have Celiac disease (a food allergy). Every morning, the maitre de met me and gave me a menu with choices for ...
My wife and I wanted to experience the Danube to Rhine cruise. Viking came highly recommended. We had Veranda Suite. The crew was terrific. They were friendly and professional. We went in early November given a decent price drop from the end of October identical cruise. We were lucky in that the rivers were high enough to allow us to sail all the way from Budapest to Amsterdam. Entertained ...
We were celebrating our 40th anniversary and wanted to commemorate it with a special trip. So, where/how do we even start?
First, I seldom take the time to write reviews, much less lengthy ones. This trip, and Viking, made an indelible impression on me, so I’m investing the time. Bottom Line: You should seriously consider this cruise trip and do it with Viking.
