Alsace, France - we were on the "Taste of Alsace" 8 hour walking tour. So much fun!
Our ship looking into the dining room
Great friends were made, and our Program Director, Wolfgang Reibe was second to none!
The Cathedral in Cologne.  We would have missed this if we hadn’t decided to take the train instead of staying on the boat.

Christmas markets

Review for Viking Sigrun to Europe - River Cruise

My husband and I chose to go on our first river cruise in Germany in December because we wanted to visit the Christmas markets. We were extremely disappointed and will never cruise with Viking again. The cabin was small but adequate and was kept clean. We were disappointed with the food except for the German fare. It was very disappointing to have only one restaurant with very specific dining ...

We have traveled previously on Viking and multiple other cruise lines. We booked this cruise on Viking because we were looking forward seeing all of the points along the Rhine. It was wonderful. Viking knows how to treat their guests. The people that work on the ship are always so polite and very helpful. The Rhine scenery and included day trips were so very enjoyable. I loved the day we sat ...

ust returned from a great trip on the Viking Sigrun from Amsterdam to Basel. Booked last spring on the $1999 25th anniversary special that included air and drinks package. With date change, Air+ and deviation we ended up around $2,350 each on the base cost. Flew non-stop from ATL to AMS on Delta. Flight was good. Got bags and through immigration and met by Viking rep who got us on the bus ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

We are turning 50 and seemed to be the youngest on the ship so I thought the experience would be slower but that was not the case! We were able to customize our trip and wound up doing over 20K steps a day and stayed up later than usual every night! Each day included a walking tour of the port—you can be part of it or do your own thing. The afternoon offers other excursions or strike out on ...

BORING! If you like to go on a river cruise to do very little this is the one for you.There is very little to see at the ports, small towns with nothing in them of interest. An example is day 2, a two hour drive through the Black Forest to see a cuckoo clock factory and gift shop. The ride back was another hour and a half. Total waste of a day. We skipped the tour of Cologne and walked around ...

The Ship was OK and Crew Were Great -But- IF YOU WANT TO GET THERE – DON’T USE VIKING AIR

Please see the positive things about the ship and the staff at the bottom of this review. This review is really about the pre-cruise experience and the most useless air travel department in the world. We've traveled a lot. We know. (to give you an idea of our travel experience, together we have over 4 million miles of air travel. This is not our first rodeo.) The most useless telephone number ...

We had done a river cruise on Viking before, so we expected some great service and they provided it again. The food was great, although we had hoped for more local German specialties. Service in the restaurant was excellent, even as the number of wait staff dropped off as we sailed. It seemed to take just a little longer to get some attention. Our cabin was kept clean and the bed made ...

Wanted to see the Passion Play. The busses were very nice and the local guides were very knowledgable. Unlike our previous river cruise with a different company, there was very little explanation of each area and the histories including explanations of the best things to see if you do your own walking tour. Most of the interesting things I found were found by accident or by my doing local ...

This was a wonderful, carefree journey up the Rhine. Well organized. Terrific food and wine. The best comeback from Covid hell that we could have hoped for. Standard tours were informative in great cities. Selected tours such as bike trip and food tour of Strasbourg were well run and memorable. We would do it again in a heartbeat. The day going through the part of the Rhine valley with ...

This was a great vacation - VIKING has it all! From great rooms, to friendly staff, fantastic food, to great visits at ports! We enjoyed the "Taste of Alsace" immensely. The food, the guide, the feeling of really getting to know a town was absolutely the best way to experience this town in France. Highlights are hard to name... it felt that from start to finish everything was first class. Dinner ...
