We've always wanted to do this cruise. The ports were just what we wanted and the number of passingers is just right.
This cruise exceeded our expectations. Simple clean interiors with neutral restful colors made us feel relaxed and comfortable. Common areas like the restaurant, lounge and decks were never crowded. There was easy access and navigation of the ship. The caring and friendly staff ...
We were on the Amsterdam to Basel cruise. The food on board was fantastic! The evening drinks and entertainment were a lot of fun.
Day 1 in Amsterdam, we arrived 7:30am and took the welcome walk but really didn't get into Amsterdam. I would recommend the option of a boat tour of the canals. Might be better for those tired from flying.
Day 2 Rotterdam. The Kinderdijk Windmill excursion ...
Viking Tialfi - Basel to Amsterdam 23-30 April 2022
We booked this week long cruise at short notice and on an impulse tempted by Viking’s flyer with three heavily discounted cruises on certain dates. On booking direct with Viking we were given the Silver Spirits package in addition. This was our tenth river cruise, all with Viking, and our very first cruise ten years ago was the same route. It ...
We chose this itinerary because we wanted to go to the markets and we were not disappointed! We started in Amsterdam (we have been there before) and then traveled to Kinderdijk, where we have also been before. We then went to Cologne and our first Christmas market. It was absolutely magical! We continued to more markets in Germany and one in Strasbourg France. The markets did not disappoint and i ...
We had been on an ocean cruise with Viking before and spoke to fellow travellers about their experience of river cruising which was very positive so we wanted to try it for ourselves.
We were not disappointed, in fact quite the reverse. it exceeded our expectations. The service was good, the food outstanding. Our cabin was clean and functional and it was nice to be able to sit on the balcony ...
My family recently took a Viking cruise from Basel to Amsterdam. Our group was made up of myself and my fiance (28 + 27), my parents (55 + 57), and my Grampie (79). We decided on this cruise because it had been a trip my Grampie had wanted to take for years, and we wanted to make sure he got to take it.
Generally, this kind of vacation would not be what my fiance and I or my parents would ...
The service and trips are always excellent. The highlight for us was the trip to a cheese factory and visiting the Kinderdijk Windmills in the Netherlands. Our guide was brilliant full of information.
Enjoyed cruising down the Rhine counting all the castles on the way.
Lovely buffet breakfast and a choice of buffet or restaurant dining lunch. Always went for buffet lunch on the Aquavit ...
Based on reputation and reviews, Viking were the obvious choice for our first cruise. Having chosen the Rhine Getaway River Cruise, we were not disappointed, it was better than we expected. Great organisation, flights and transit to ship were faultless, staff and crew were welcoming and very helpful. The Tialfi was clean, comfortable just the right size to be immediately at home with. Food ...
Viking is best value for money. All the staff treat you as if you are the only person on the ship.food and choice is out standing. The staff can not do too much for there guests. My wife struggles with walking so the staff accommodate this and make sure that all her needs on the visits are taken care and that they get to go on all the on shore visits. The staff in the restaurant if you would like ...
We have cruised about 15 times, but this was our first river cruise.....and it won't be our last! We have already booked two more. The whole trip was fabulous. The beautiful ship, the super friendly staff & crew, and the gorgeous scenery.
I can't say enough about the crew on the Tialfi. They greeted us by name from the very first day. Our waiter knew our drink preference, and even ...
