This was our second cruise having cruised the Rhine in 2019 with Viking. We wanted to start further east and travel back towards Germany. We were well informed, before the cruise, about the water levels of the Danube and if it hadn't rained how the cruise would be handled. Luckily it rained and the river was fine. The service on board was excellent, the food was always of the highest quality, ...
We traveled with my sister and her husband. This week has worked out well for us before. The trip was cancelled due to Covid but Viking took care of everything and gave us 125% of the value. My brother in law needed a gentle tour to
be comfortable. What a good idea. The waiters and other staff were like family. We would have gladly taken them home with us. Two of the shore excursions that we ...
We selected the Romantic Danube cruise as the first river cruise because of the destinations. Also we booked with the anniversary discount of free air and the Silver Spirits package.
The weather was perfect, we even had a couple of days in the 70's.
We were thankful the river levels were up enough that we did not need to do any ship swapping or long trips on a bus. All the included ...
We wanted to do the Danube and this was a great cruise. As usual Viking does a great job and treating their customers well. We loved Budapest and Vienna. Seeing a Mozart and Strauss concert at the opera house in Vienna was incredible.
The cruise up the Danube was enjoyable. The low water levels were a concern but we were lucky as were able to make the full journey all the way to ...
We really wanted to visit Budapest and travel along the Danube River. Really enjoyed the locations that we visited and the excursions provided at each port. We prefer the walking tours and area explorations more than the driving bus tours through the towns. Had a day of low water at the beginning and the end, but everything went smoothly, and we saw all of the cities. We just had one canceled ...
This is our 4th Viking River Cruise, and we chose this itinerary because although we had visited much of Europe, we had never been to these cities. I was quite concerned before the trip regarding the water level on the Danube due to problems last year, but there were no issues. We came to Budapest a couple of days early and did some touring on our own, including a fun up close and personal Tuk Tuk ...
We have been to the Viking River. We are happy with the cruising along the River Danube.
The cabin is small, the entertainment is OK, could be better - mainly piano playing, One time the cruise director Dawn gave a nice concert, a Sparano solo -the only best concert. Another time a team of two GERMAN musicians playing the accordion. Food is nutrition with limited choice in the menu. The ship ...
This tour was a bucket list item for the wife and I. The food was excellent and the crew and Director were outstanding. The on shore excursions were very informative and worth both time and money. The up close tour in Vienna, although a last minute option was excellant. We were the first cruise in five months that was able to remain on board throughout the journey due water levels. This made our ...

This was our first river cruise, so I have nothing to compare it to, but it was oh so very amazing! The customer service, all around, was great. The ship was the perfect size for our needs. Although we had a small room, it didn't matter as we truly only slept there. The food was great and accommodated my wife's pickiness. It amazes me that after just a few days, the staff knew our names (and there ...
