This was our first river cruise and we carefully chose Viking because of their ratings and experience running them. I traveled with my husband and we stayed in a Veranda room and made use of the balcony and chairs all week. We chose the Danube cruise because of its focus on the Bavaria locations which has been a bucket list for us.
Upon disembarking and about a week after our return we have no ...
To start, pick up at the airport was efficient with travel to the hotel. The pre cruise stay in Budapest was great. The hotel was historic and beautiful, the included breakfast was plentiful with lots of choices and delicious. The location was great. The Viking reps were so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful! They helped to make the stay a fun one. They were ready with recommendations for ...
I will recommend Viking River Cruises to everyone. We were treated like royalty. Viking went above and beyond, as I became quite ill during travel to Budapest. Viking rep Vicktor was our guardian angel, as he called a doctor our first night in the hotel, got my meds, called an ambulance the following morning, sat with us at the hospital for EIGHT hours, and made sure we connected with Mario from ...
We loved this cruise. I loved the beautiful cities we toured and the tour guides were exceptional. The ship is luxurious and the crew were warm, helpful and good at what they did. Our hostess Sue, was amazing. She handled every situation calmly and professionally. She was fun to listen to as she shared our schedules for the next day. So very helpful. Our room was small but very efficient. The bed ...
Excellent crew they give 5 star service. The shore excursions are very informative and in depth for each port. This was my first Viking cruise. The food was outstanding. Our room was very nice and comfortable eventhough we chose the lowest cabin is eas spacious enough the shower was much bigger than on a Princess cruise I went on. The average age of the passengers were mostly older than me but it ...
This is our 5th cruise with AmaWaterways. This time, on the ādoublewideā AmaMagna. This February 18 2024 sailing was one of the first Feb sailings offered by Ama. The ship is amazing, same capacity (198) as a narrower River Cruise ship, but twice as wide. Huge staterooms, 4 eating venues, a library, cinema and wellness studio. The crew, even though only their 2nd cruise together, was totally ...

Greetings from AmaWaterways, thank you for sharing your river cruise experience with us! It is great to know that our team was welcoming and helpful during your stay. We are delighted you had...
Needed a winter vacation and have always wanted to try a Viking river cruise. We took a Christmas market cruise on the Danube from Budapest to Passau. Viking handled everything including flights and transfers and it was seamless for me. Next time I might book my own flights to cut down on transfers, not have to leave the ship at 4 am, and upgrade with miles, but for my first time, it was very nice ...
The three of us - my husband, I and our son - took a Danube River cruise on Viking Baldur from Budapest to Passau the week before Christmas. It was cold and raining or pouring most of the days. However, despite the miserable weather, our overall experience with Viking was fairly good and I would give it 4 stars if not an extremely unpleasant event that took place the last night and a return ...
1) almost no restaurants in the United States serve robusta coffee--the savings isn't that great, and the coffee is just pathetic.... If for no other reason, that is sufficient for my not cruising again on Viking. Moreover I couldn't even drown it out with cream because the cruise only had skim milk (ultimately, the maƮtre d' did purchase some half-and-half--kudos).
2) I have wine with dinner ...
We chose the cruise as it was to celebrate our 25th wedding Anniversary and we wanted to do something special. It started on my birthday and ended on our 26th Anniversary. We liked the idea of a small ship, less people and where we could see the shore at all times. Not only was that provided to us but we got treated like royalty. From the Program Director George to our cleaning lady Catalina ...
