Viking Aegir Cruise Reviews

We chose this cruise because of Viking's reputation and our prior Viking experience on the Rhine. The pre-cruise extension allowed us to spend extra time in Muniche and Salzburg, the home of Mozart. We were able to see where the "Sound of Music" was filmed and could imagine ourselves as part of the movie. We took our picture in front of famous "gazebo" at the Hellbrunn Palace, where song "I am 16 ...

Heard from previous passengers that Viking Cruises were second to none. Decided to book the cruise along with several tours that Viking offered. All tours were conducted by locals who were well versed in local culture, history, and background of the area. We took advantage of the pre-cruise excursions in Budapest, and the post cruise excursions in Prague. The timing of everything, from dining, ...

The cruise was well organized. Lots of excursions. We stayed mostly with the walking tours and spent our free time roaming the beautiful towns and cities where we landed. We especially enjoyed the activities coordinator’s insights as he previewed the next day’s port of call. Food was always abundant, well prepared, and well presented by a friendly wait staff. There were regional selections ...

In 2020 we booked the Danube Waltz Oberammergau Passion Play cruise. Covid hit and we cancelled for a full refund. In 2022 we decided to try again so we re-booked the same cruise, Passau to Budapest. The land portion - Munich, Oberammergau Passion Play, Salzburg - was fantastic. We boarded our ship in Passau. The next morning one of us tested positive for Covid so Viking put us in a quarantine ...

We have sailed with Viking before and love the food, wine, excursions and amenities. The service on our ship was outstanding and all the staff on the ship was first rate, from the waiters to the housekeeping. The food and wine was absolutely delicious! They are very organized and make everything exciting, easy and fun. The only person on the ship that we were not pleased with was the man at ...

Our initiation into the world of river cruising was an excellent one. We could not have been more impressed with the organization on the Viking ship, the quality of the food and drink, and of course the pleasantness of the staff. Serving local dishes added to the "flavor" of the experience and we took advantage of those offerings. We would definitely consider another cruise of this ...

I have never heard one person say anything negative about a Viking River cruise. This was our first river cruise, so we had only ocean large ships to use as a point of reference. So, when we took our Viking cruise in late April 2023, I expected everything to be top notch and we were not disappointed. The following are our ratings for the individual aspects of the cruise on a scale of 1 to 5, with ...

We chose this cruise for the fantastic itinerary, cruising the Danube, and visiting it wonderful cities; with pre and post cruise stays, to maximize our experience. All was great - accommodations, dining, tours, and especially the staff. Viking is a great way to see the countries we've not been able to access by ocean cruising. After a long day of travel to reach Prague, they had a new Mercedes ...

Always heard about Viking. Overall it was a great experience very different to Ocean cruises and land travel. Jacob in the Marriott in Prague was excellent,our cabin attendant was wonderful, I sent our clothes to the laundry excellent service, Ian and Tony in the dining room were amazing, Lazlo(Leslie) in the Lounge was wonderful as well. Our entertainer Angel was great, our cruise director George ...

Selected Viking as advertised that they took care of you. Viking air stranded us in Istanbul Turkey and emergency services were NO help. Food was always cold bland tough. No available snacks between meals. Only one common area which was lounge. Only entertainment was a piano and singer who was very good but that was only option. No library as seen in advertisements. Not suitable if you use walker ...
