Terrible cruise

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Mimir

We had been on the Paris to Normandy cruise and loved it. We booked the Explorer suite and were excited about the trip. This changed when we had to change ships because of the river level which meant we had a 3 1/2 hour bus ride to reach the new ship the Viliy. This transition wasted one day. We were often moored in industrial areas which did not allow us to explore the cities. In Cologne ...

We choose this particular ship and date because of the itinerary and it did not disappoint. The ports and scenery while cruising were incredible. We thoroughly enjoyed every stop on our journey and highlights were the two “scenic cruising” afternoons. Having great weather for the duration was a bonus. The ship was very clean and well laid out. We ate most meals in the Aqua Vit Terrace ...

The cruise was an awesome, once in a lifetime opportunity to see a great deal of Europe without the hassles of driving or taking a train. Viking does EVERYTHING to make the trip run smoothly. We had an exceptional weather which helped a lot for the tour of various cities. The daily tour excursions that were included were awesome. We paid for 2 that were beyond the free daily tours and they were ...

Our first Viking vacation and first river cruise. We did the 2 day add-on in Amsterdam and 2-day add-on in Budapest to help time zone adjust and get a chance to visit Budapest, a city we've never explored before. Viking made the arrangements and frankly, this was one of the highlights of our vacation. That is not to say that we didn't enjoy the river cruise, but the hotels were centrally ...

We had the explorer suite which is phenomenal! It was like our own apartment to view the whole trip. We spent time on the balcony sipping wine and viewing the beautiful Danube from Budapest to Passau. Leaving Budapest at night, the lights were amazing as we traveled under each bridge. We also went through 9 or 10 locks. I was aware of and watched two that were huge and very cool to experience. ...

Luxury crusing at its best. Although our tour was booked on the Jewel, we actually sailed on the sister ship the Jade, due to prior water level. On arrival we were greated by friendly staff that quickly became like family. The rooms are spacious and beds are top quality. Our personal butler, cabin steward, bar staff, wait staff, activities crew members and all others behind the scenes were ...

We particularly enjoy river cruising, especially on Viking! Our cruise was from Bucharest, Romania to Budapest, Hungary. We chose this cruise because we were curious about the countries in this part of the Danube River. As we expected, we had excellent guides and excursions. The countries we visited are still recovering from the Communist era and the guides were honest in their appraisal of the ...

Due to high water levels we started our cruise on the Scenic Ruby from Budapest. We joined the Scenic Crystal in Rudesheim. We we were therefore able to compare the two ships. Ruby is older but basically the same as Crystal except Crystal has Deluxe Balcony rooms which we had booked. The Ruby was in better condition than Crystal. Crystal had ripped and stained carpets. We found the staff, ...

The ship, itinerary, staff, drink variety, and cleanliness were all great. The wifi quality and access needs improving. The shore excursions weren't always clearly or accurately described, especially with respect to key sights to be seen, and the terrain and level of exertion required (we had a couple of tough hikes that some guests definitely should not have been on). Entertainment was a bit ...
