River cruising was recommended by a relative who had done it many times. I typically avoid water due to motion sickness, but that was never an issue on this cruise. It was mostly Americans and Canadians on board, but with a diverse and exceptionally friendly, talented, and caring crew. Never before have I received such great customer service. The crew and several passengers became like old friends ...

We had cruised the Danube several years ago and Viking was just the best experience! They make everything so easy and the food and beverages are the best. We chose a different area/river for this cruise and were as amazed as on this trip as we were on the last. We are glad our trip started in Amsterdam as we had nearly a full day to explore before sailing. It was amazing. Each port offered ...

I was always intrigued by the Viking River cruises so as a post-covid celebration I booked a trip for my wife and me. The idea of 3,000 plus people did not give me a warm and fuzzy feeling on a big cruise ship, but only 150 passengers on a Viking longship seemed comfortable. We took the Rhine Getaway. We flew out of Missouri to Basel and departed from Amsterdam. Yep, it was a long ...

This was our first river cruise. We had originally planned for the Danube cruise in May, but with the war we decided to opt for our second choice. Recommendation for all travelers who are planning to have a post trip adventure. I recommend that this be a pre adventure with the turbulence in air travel. Our United flight sat for 3 hours in SFO due to an illness of one of the flight crew. ...

To be honest we chose this cruise because it fit within a time that we were able to go. Reality is we were blown away. Not only by the staff, the shore excursions, the meals, or even the drinks. When you put it all together it was Amazing. We had zero expectations because we had never taken a river cruise before. We have done ocean cruises. We are now definitely river cruise people. I was afraid I ...

Very well organized, great staff and crew. Every effort was made to make our cruise comfortable and enlightening. Tours were educational and well scripted, some guides were better informed than others but that is to be expected. Food, servings and staff in the dining area were friendly and very accommodating to our needs. Housekeeping was very good also, a few minor snafus that were ...

Our Viking cruise on the Rhine (Amsterdam to Basel) was lovely. Viking provides unmatched service and and accommodations. We did the pre-cruise extension in Amsterdam and Viking handled our delay due to flights perfectly and had representatives waiting to deliver us to our hotel. The free time in Amsterdam was very nice. We did have a disappointing tour guide on the Viking arranged tour. We ...

We choose this particular cruise as the date aligned with when we wanted to travel, and we loved the areas of Germany that were visited. Even though we had previously visited some of the stops, the Viking excursions showed us new things that we’d previously not experienced. The Hlin crew were very professional, knowledgeable, always accessible and helpful. The onboard food options were delicious ...

We wanted to take a river cruise and see some of Europe's sights. We were not disappointed. The shore excursions were informative and interesting. The cathedrals were magnificent and beautiful. The gothic architecture was memorable as were the stained glass windows. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable and added to the charm of the trip. The crew of the Hlin were top notch in their service ...

I’m a seasoned traveler. I’ve been on several cruises with multiple cruise lines. Each have their pros and many have an abundance of cons. This was my first trip on a Viking ship and I will say I was skeptical upon boarding that they would exceed my expectations. I had read a lot about how great they were, but until I see it, I won’t believe it. Our cruise started on May 15 from Basel to ...
