We went at this time to see the tulips before the cruise began, which we did. As expected the weather was dicey, some good days some not.
The cruise itself was very good. Food was great, company was great. We purposefully did not sit at the same table every night in order to meet new people. For the most part the free tours and the "paid extra" tours were very good. We had trouble with 2 in ...
We originally chose this tour in 2020 and we all know what happened then! We chose this tour to experience the Danube, Main and Rhine rivers in one trip and because my heritage dates back to the 1700s in Germany. The trip was beyond our wildest expectations. The itinerary is fabulous as were the tours. Service on the ship was top notch. The food was excellent and plentiful. We felt at home ...
Wonderful, helpful crew, amazing sights and 'ate our way across Europe"!
All of the tour guides were fantastic an so knowledgeable.
In Passau we had a wonderful walking tour of the city. Our fantastic chef demonstrated Apple Strudel making, which was quite tasty!
In Linz we a had a bit of snow at the beginning of our morning walking tour, but the Viking provided big umbrellas kept us ...
Highly recommend this ship and the Danube river cruise. We started in Passau Germany and ended in Budapest Hungary. Thought we would love Austria the most but ended up loving Slovakia and Hungary the best. However, we loved the whole trip. The food was great. In every port we had fantastic guides. The included free excursions were really fantastic. They divided the ship up into small groups ...
I traveled with 3 of my friends. We chose this cruise because we were able to visit 4 countries: Hungary, Slovakia, Austria and Germany. We spent 2 days in Hungary, 1 day in Slovakia, 3 days in Austria and 1 day in Germany. We took all included excursions - Panoramic Budapest, Panoramic Bratislava, Panoramic Vienna, Gottweig Abby,Linz Walking Tour and Passau Walking Tour. Tour Guides were very ...
This was our first Viking cruise and first river cruise. From booking to our send off, everything was amazing. The Viking staff could not have done more. They live their values and maintained the highest standards. They accommodated my allergies and ensured accessibility for all passengers. Even when the weather turned nasty, they made adjustments. Every port was convenient. Their guidance was ...
We LOVED our Viking River Cruise Grand European Tour!!! I will have to be honest and mention a couple of things. 1. We thought this was a "Christmas Markets Tour" and it was NOT!!! Christmas Markets were part of this tour, but, not an emphasis! The tours also were at a VERY high pace and those who have any mobility questions will have to anticipate this. Another thing that I need to confirm with ...
This cruise was definitely the first of many with Viking!
I traveled with my grandmother and we both had an exceptional experience. We did have a great time since we departed until we got back home. Viking arranged everything for us so it was a very smooth trip all together and we couldn't be more thankful.
We were able to enjoy this trip at our own pace while being part of the fascinating ...
Having lost our spouses in recent years, my cousin and I decided to take a Viking River Cruise together. And we decided to go all the way, with the Grand European Tour, and a pre-cruise extension in Prague. The trip was unforgettable; exceptional in every way. I have never worked with a company that is better organized and more dedicated to customer service than Viking. Of course, it was ...
We took this cruise with my brother and his wife. We had been trying to do this since late 2020, but trips were cancelled or we backed out due to risks associated with Covid-19. The overall cruise was great. Weather was warmer than expected, and enjoyable. We met a bunch of like-minded guests and had fun: this was true of an earlier Viking river cruise down the Rhine. Food was good, but I ...
