1-10 of 68 Budapest to Europe Viking Gullveig Cruise Reviews
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 maître d' did purchase some half-and-half--kudos).
2) I have wine with dinner ...
We were interested in the itinerary and the availability of add-on cities. Everything was first-class from the time we landed at Heathrow and were met with a Viking Rep to takes us to our connecting flight to Budapest. Not having to live out of a suitcase for 8 days while we travelled through Europe is a luxury.
The tour guides in every city were knowledgeable and made our experiences great. ...
This was our second Viking tour. We loved the first (on the Rhine) and this Danube cruise was also outstanding. Loved the cities we visited. Budapest was beautiful, Vienna was so impressive, and Regensberg had so much history. The Abbeys, cathedrals and churches, along with the stories of people who built them were fascinating and gorgeous. The excursions arranged by Viking were so ...
This was our 4th river cruise with Viking, 6th with them overall. We are in our late 60s and were traveling with my 92 year old father and his wife. Our itinerary was disrupted slightly the last couple of days of the cruise due to high river levels, impassible bridges, and flooding in Passau. Viking handled everything perfectly, arranging buses to pick us up at two unscheduled stops along the ...
We ran across the Budapest to Regensburg cruise at a travel show. Too good to pass up. Air, drink package. We will get into things later.
Our second Viking cruise. The staff was great. Met nice people. We don’t spring for all the extra outings, I enjoy the top shelf whisky in the evenings and talking to people. Food and service top rate. We tip up front for some folks on top of standard. ...
This cruise was chosen for me as a gift from my children. They choose Viking because of my interest (the Masterpiece advertisements work!) and the location because it was someplace that my husband and I would not go on our own.
The overall experience was wonderful, from the level of service on ship to the welcoming and knowledgeable tour guides. We really felt that we saw the highlights of ...
Viking is an excellent cruise line. We were very satisfied with their service and staff. Everyone was eager to please the guests on the ship. The Program Manager also did an excellent job in coordinating alternative excursion when an original excursion was not possible for either weather or other reasons. It was a pleasure sailing with Viking. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. Our ...
I was invited on this cruise by my mother who organizes an annual family reunion with my sisters. Everyone onboard was incredibly nice, helpful and attentive (save one unpleasant waiter in the lounge- I avoided the lounge after that, but it really didn’t affect my cruise. It was probably for the best as I didn’t order any cocktails after that, so I saved some money) the restaurant staff were the ...
I had never been to Europe. My husband had been stationed in Germany in the late 1960's and thought he would enjoy going back to the area. I had heard from a friend that Viking Cruise Lines was one of the best and I have to agree. I really enjoyed the 2 days before in Budapest. The employees at the hotel were great, the guides for the tours were great. I can't rave about them enough. We ...
This cruise was a wonderful balance between having R&R and actively trekking through all the countries we visited.
The service was friendly and professional. The food was outstanding and the wines were great!
Our cabin was the perfect size and our room steward came twice a day to make sure everything was in order.
We really enjoyed all the excursions they offered. The free excursions ...
