We were a group of 10 traveling for a celebratory birthday. The cruise allowed us to do activities together and gave us enough time to explore and do things alone. They included excursions were well planned and appropriately described in the brochure as far as activity level. There was plenty of time to relax while on board and enjoy activities and entertainment. Very well organized and passengers ...
We chose Viking from family recommendations that it was an extremely enjoyable experience and they weren't wrong. This was our first ever cruise and we wanted a river cruise over an ocean cruise mainly because of the size passengers onboard. The ships accommodations are perfectly sized, the meals delicious and the shore excursions were both fun and informative. I especially appreciate the friendly ...
We chose this trip because of the cities visited. We spent a couple days in Amsterdam before boarding the boat. Everything was top notch. Our rooms, food, staff, and daily trips were wonderful. The staff learns your name and likes quickly. We were spoiled with delicious meals and desserts. It’s a very relaxing, comfortable way to travel. Our room was very comfortable. We had US and European ...
We have cruised many times on the ocean and always wanted to try a river cruise. We are so happy we did, we had a fantastic experience! The small size of a river cruise ship creates a more personalized experience and allows for us to meet people more easily. The crew addressed us by name and knew what we needed/wanted before we asked. They took great care of us throughout the week. We had some ...
My husband selected this destination for its beauty and history! He selected Viking because of their stellar reputation and they did not disappoint!!
The only small complaint I have is they ran out of coke zero before the week was over. As someone who does not drink alcohol, I was sad to run out of my favorite beverage. I was surprised that they did not stock up at the next port. Also, I was ...
We were told by family that Viking was a great company to cruise with for a river cruise. We booked in 2019 for a 2020 departure. The cruise was cancelled due to Covid. We rebooked for 2021 and that cruise was cancelled. We didn’t have time to do a cruise in 2022, but we finally went in 2023!!
We were very pleased with our trip from start to finish. We even had to call a couple of months ...
It was recommended by our travel agent Howard Todd of SilverFox Travels. The food on the ship was outstanding, every meal was outstanding. The service was great and everyone treated us like we were the most people in the world, like royalty. The entertainment, such as the trio that sang and played oldies and the two ladies that played classical, was really great and everyone seemed to enjoy it. ...
Our son and his wife sailed with Viking last year. They rave about all aspects and have actually booked the Mediterranean Cruise in the future. This would be a new experience for us and we were not disappointed at all. The ship is pristine, the crew and serve staff are warm, energetic and make every wish happen. The tours are fun and informative. I especially enjoyed the trip up the Rhine in the ...
We had been wanting to try a river cruise and did a lot of research on options. Based on reviews and people we spoke with, Viking was a premier option. Our trip was fantastic and went beyond every expectation! We used their air travel plan and it went smoothly, the Pre-cruise and post-cruise extentions were outstanding (we did the 2 night Lucerne and 2 nights in Amsterdam). Embarkation was ...
This was my sister's first cruise and we chose the Rhine Getaway starting in Basel, Switzerland. We were met at the airport and taken to our ship which eliminated a lot of stress. For the next week, we were treated to informative tours, free time to explore on our own, access to the most beautiful architecture, and the most comfortable ship experience possible, and a restful evening. Everything ...
