We have wanted to take a river cruise for a long time. My husband retired this year. He has never been to Europe. There was a party of 7 with our group. The cruise was awesome, Sometimes felts a little rushed on the included excursions and wish there had been more time for shopping. But all in all it was awesome. The ship crew was out of this world and made the trip amazing. ...
I picked this cruise on the recommendations of friends and the wonderful ads they run, it was the worst experience ever. After a delayed flight in arriving at the airport when I called Viking for my pick up, I was told to get a cab I had paid for the transfers, but they weren’t willing to come get me. Things went from bad to worse. The only rooms available. were on the first floor, but I was told ...
Thank you, MsWiz, for sharing your experience with us. While sometimes adjustments are necessary to preserve the integrity of your voyage, we're sorry to learn our response to the...
We wanted to see the Netherlands and the tulips. We wanted an escorted river cruise. The visit to tulip farmers was very informative and interesting. The canal cruise was really nice. We loved the windmills tour, war museum and especially the tulip garden where we could walk at our own pace. I have issues walking and found the shore tour guides too fast for me and lots of the other guests. ...
We had heard from others about viking and the service. We have been on large ship cruises and the viking river cruise was beyond our expectations. The boat, service, staff and food were exceptional. i would highly recommend taking a viking cruise. We did the grand european tour and the stops were great. This was our first time to Germany and the excursions were great. The activity director ...
Having experienced 5 ocean cruises and a very short one on the Nile, I wanted to experience a European River Cruise. It did not disappoint although we had to change ships due to low water levels. The service from the staff was excellent.
The breakfasts were exceptional - I particularly loved the Eggs Benedict. Lunch and dinner with complimentary wines were extremely tasty and well presented. ...
We chose this cruise because we had heard how wonderful Viking was. We wanted the longest cruise possible and the Grand European is a 14 day cruise. We were impressed with Pierce Oh, our Viking agent, who we dealt with on the phone when scheduling. He is the epitome of what a customer service rep should be.
Things went downhill when we were at the airport on July 29th getting ready for our ...
We appreciate you taking the time to outline your experience, Hoyasaxa1, and would welcome the opportunity to learn more about your trip to address your disappointment in our onboard...
14 days and you unpack only once...and a chance to see towns off the beaten path
The food exceeded expectations and the service was top notch. Huge shout outs to Nico, Vaseleyna and Elmer as well as cabin steward John.
The cruse director, Tessa, was a gem with a sparkling personality and wealth of knowledge.
And the tours, whether included or optional were helmed by guides that were truly ...
First the one caveat: please be aware that if you ever cash in booking that you've paid for in order to take advantage of a better deal, which Viking graciously and easily allows you to do, just be aware that all the freebies and special offers attached to the original Cruise do not transfer to the new Cruise offer. I was surprised and disappointed to find that we lost our silver spirits package ...
I chose this cruise because my cousins booked the cruise and invited me to join them. I must admit, I was curious to find out if this was a good way to travel in Europe. This biggest complaint I have is I wished I was on the cruise longer. This was an amazing trip, with amazing staff to make our journey so wonderful. With Covid still presenting some challenges, this was handled very ...
I loved the itinerary and the viking Ve was well rated. We were forced to change ships midway because of water levels. Bus ride because of traffic took 6 hours. On the Ve food and service was excellent. I have an allergy to nuts, after one day word got around and I never had to mention it again. In fairness we were I'm the Explorer suite so i don't know if everyone got this treatment. On the ...
