"I’m sorry to say everyone in my party caught Covid on this cruise and it seemed like at least one person in everyone party on board had the same cough that we did so they likely caught it as well.We stopped in a few small towns that were so charming and picturesque!..."Read More
We very much enjoyed our pre-cruise time in Paris and the entire river cruise. Mia, the Cruise Director, was awesome! She was so much fun and informative and 'real'! We really enjoyed ourselves and like the included daily excursions and the paid excursions as well. We love how organized and on time everything is. The housekeeping staff was hard working and efficient and we appreciated their ...
My husband and I initially had reservations about going on a cruise and opted for a smaller river cruise on the Seine as our initiation into cruising. Our entire trip was absolutely wonderful and far exceeded our expectations. One of the things that made us forever members of Viking Cruising was our experience at the airport. Pick-up was as promised, but we were absolutely thrilled to be shuttled ...
I’ve been on several other cruise lines but this was not only my first Viking Cruise, but my first river cruise. It was wonderful. The staff friendly and professional; the excursions well planned and executed. The food choices were excellent and well presented. We happened to travel over Thanksgiving and the staff and chef made it an enjoyable experience. We had a “traditional” Thanksgiving dinner ...
My primary reason for selecting this cruise was to get a French experience, as well as touring the Normandy Landing sites and graves. I had heard great things about Viking Cruises and thought this would be a good opportunity to experience them.
First the good - Viking is a premier line, and everything about the ship, food, service, rooms, common places, was top notch. They aim to please ...
From buying the trip, to working with Viking on excursions, extensions, and airfare, the whole process was smooth as silk. It was to be my first cruise and I didn’t care too much where we went, but it was on my friend’s bucket list to visit Normandy, so Paris to Normandy was a perfect fit for the group of us. I now love river cruises as they take all the hard work of planning off your shoulders. ...
The itinerary on this cruise was outstanding, and the Radgrid's docking berth at Grenelle was extremely convenient, within walking distance of shopping and the Eiffel Tower! The daily included tours were, for the most part, both charming and interesting; we would suggest smaller groups so that the guides could keep us together and answer questions. Our tour of Giverny was disappointing; the ship ...
I am interested in WWll history. We chose this cruise as it checked my boxes. A pre cruise package in Paris, my favorite city, and a trip through Normandy to learn more about D-Day. We missed our connecting flight and were rerouted through Heathrow (ugh). We arrived in Paris many hours later to find our luggage decided to stay in London. Viking was there to meet us and transport us to the ...
Five years ago we took a different Viking River Cruise and knew we would be taking another.
Everything was so enjoyable. Beautiful ship and professional crew.
Wonderful service from all of the staff.
Interesting and informative tours and guides.
On our first cruise we boarded in Basel Switzerland and the ship began the cruise that day. When we arrived in Amsterdam we had to leave the ...
As a member of the hospitality industry, I was blown away by the attention to detail that the entire Viking crew displayed throughout out journey. This was a family trip celebrating the life of our grandfather who passed pre-Covid. There were six of us and we ranged in age from 36-76 and every single one of us commented afterwards just how much fun this cruise was.
Upon boarding, I made a ...
Viking France's Finest was my first Viking cruise; first River Cruise; and first time at every one of the ports. The week on the Radgrid was followed by 7 nights on the Viking Heimdal from Lyon to Avignon. My friend and I did the pre and post extensions as well. 3 weeks total for the trip.
Viking is very well organized and is a class act. There were Viking reps at the hotels to answer ...
