1-10 of 76 Budapest to Europe Viking Ingvi Cruise Reviews
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 ...
The cruise was great with an excursion most every morning. The tour guides' English was very good and they shared a lot about their life and the history of each location. We wore headsets so we could clearly hear our tour guide even when we were 50+ feet away from them.
The staff on board were very friendly and went out of their way to make sure you got everything you needed. Most of our ...
I chose Viking because of their commitment to sustainability and their desire to use local food and ingredients and even grow an herb garden on the roof. It is a fantastic way to see the world, especially when you desire to relax and not have to figure it all out yourself. I have backpacked all over the world on my own. It was nice to be pampered and taken to wonderful places I may not have found ...
My mother and father in law are turning 80 this year so we decided to celebrate by going to the countries of their origins. There were 5 of us and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Suzy was the cruise director and she did a fabulous job of keeping up informed about daily excursions. All of our dining was fantastic. We enjoyed the regional cuisine . From the delicious meals and wine to the ...
Both of the Hotels we stayed at for our Pre and Post extentions were very nice. The Viking desk was a huge plus.
The convenience of not carting your own luggage everywhere was so great!
We love the cities that this cruise was stopping at, small but not too small, learned so much about the culture from the locals.
All the charm, history and quaintness of what Europe is to us.
The ...
We did the Viking Rhine cruise a few years ago, and knew we wanted to do another. After the "unpleasantness" of 2020-2022, we booked this Danube cruise for 2023. We had high expectations given our Rhine experience. As they say, it did NOT disappoint. Viking River ships are all of the same design, so it was all very familiar, which is a plus. The crew from stem to stern was exceptional. the ...
This was our second Viking River Cruise and we enjoyed it even more than the first one. We had a great shore experience at each of the stops and an even better onboard experience.
The crew was attentive and professional, the food was first rate, and the cabins were amazingly spacious. Viking knows how to do this.
We spent much more time on the ship than during our Rhine River cruise ...
Every one I know who had experience with Viking enjoyed their cruise. Once aboard, I understood why. From the steward (dining room server) who took our bags to our cabin to the activity director, we felt that our enjoyment was critically important. I got the distinct feeling that procedures on board had been tailored based on previous guests’ comments.
For a “foodie” like me, the dining ...
Had never visited the interior of Europe. Viking provides an excellent way to see the wonderful landscape and scenic splendor. The Danube river winds through much of Europes rich history. The bridges that cross it, starting in Budapest, are magnificent. It is hard to imagine that these cities were treasured prizes of so many conquerers. The cruise ended in Passau which is a charming town that ...
Our recent trip with Viking was 3 years in the making. The original tro was 2020, but COVID delayed the trip to this year. It was worth the wait.
The itinerary was a trip of a lifetime, traveling 5 countries and visiting 4 world capitals, a geographic dream. The sites and history have us a greater understanding of the people and where they’ve been over the centuries.
Of course, this wasn’t ...
