Viking Alsvin Cruise Reviews

Specific sites and tour direction. Met family from UK for long after-stay in Paris before returning to the USA. Accommodation was modest in smaller cabins. Trips/tours were very well organized and run on schedule with minor delays. Food was superb with many choices and chance to variously mingle with multitude of guests. Tour leadership and ships crew were all superb, always ready to help ...

We had not been abroad for a couple of years and chose to go with Viking as we have always had wonderful holidays with them. The Three Rivers cruise took us from Nuremberg on the Main, along the Rhine into Moselle ending at Trier. Over the 8 days we stopped at lovely German towns including Bamberg, Wurzberg, beautiful Heidelberg (where we had lunch with students from the University), Mainz, ...

We chose the Romantic Danube cruise because we wanted to explore some countries in Europe where we'd never been and the itinerary of Hungary, Slovakia, Austria and Germany really filled the bill. We were especially drawn to Budapest because of Viking's advertising of their cruise ship floating by the Hungarian Parliament Building and the beauty of the Danube. We were not disappointed and loved the ...

We had never been on a river or ocean cruise so weren’t sure what to expect. The Viking staff ensured that every aspect of our experience was wonderful. Most of the staff learned our names in the first day of the trip and really catered to our needs! We had 145 guests (capacity of 190) on the ship and really got to know many other guests over cocktails, dinner, or on the tours. We did most of ...

We did on-our-own excursions before and after in Bavaria and Budapest and thoroughly enjoyed these. Particularly Munich old town, Rothenburg, and Budapest. We stayed at Platzl Hotel in Munich, easy walking distance to Hofbrauhaus, the English Gardens, and many great restaurants. We stayed at Hotel Sonne in Rothenburg, such a fascinating town. We stayed at Hotel Barcelo in Budapest, such a neat ...

I enjoyed this cruise very much. We started off with the Prague/Nuremberg extension. Very informative, good guides. There were great guides at every excursion on the trip. Our onboard experience was great also...food, amenities, staff. I was particularly happy with the help at the airport in Hungary. The program director was particularly good. He was great at the organizing and very easy to work ...

We wanted to experience both Prague and Paris which is why we chose this cruise. Viking always does a nice job of taking care of their clients and it held true again. We especially enjoyed the e-bike excursion in Germany. The 2 gentlemen who were our guides/caretakers were very pleasant and showed us much. The trip to Giverny was quite nice and lovely. Unfortunately, it was a crowded place as ...

Seeking a 10-14 day cruise in Europe we selected Paris to Prague with 2 other couples. We were in Ireland through the 18th, chose an agenda that matched our timing and brought us to interesting towns, historic sights, and the beauty of Paris, Germany, Prague. We were not thrilled that most of the towns in Germany required an hour to hour and a half bus ride from the river, this was not clear in ...

We had been assured by friends and family that Viking was the best and most reliable company to work with, and it turned out to be true. We were greeted and escorted by the 'Red Shirt Brigade' at each and every stop from our arrival to final departure. A well organized effort to keep us all on schedule and together. Our crew was most gracious and helpful. The Captain was informative and ...

We had heard good things about Viking River Cruises and so we wanted to try one for ourselves. The itinerary included a few Days in Paris at the start of the holiday and was back-ended by a few days in Prague. Firstly Viking did not disappoint in all areas. The ship, service, food, tours, and staff all provided a 5 star experience. When we could not keep to our original itinerary due to ...
