Wonderful trip on the Elba, in Prague, and in Berlin
"In both Prague and Berlin our cruise director, Alan, was at the Viking desk during portions of the day to see to our questions and needs.The panoramic tours of both Prague and Berlin were inclusive of many attractions, but in Prague a lot of walking on cobblestones was involved...."Read More

This was our second Viking river cruise following up on the Grand European. The smaller Astrild was much more intimate than the normal long ship. There were 95 passengers on our cruise, and it was very easy to get to know folks. The crew was outstanding in all areas. Our room attendant kept our cabin spotless and our favorite waiters went above and beyond to please. The food was delicious and ...

We chose this trip because we wanted to visit the selected destinations and learn much more about the life and history of Prague, the eastern portions of Germany and the fascinating city of Berlin. We chose Viking because of the wonderful job they did for us on our two previous trips, and we know they can make a trip great even IF the ships do not move on the rivers. Yes, we had this happen when ...

We wanted to see and experience Prague, the Czech Republic and the east German cities. We really enjoy Dresden, the sights and architecture were beautiful.
We also enjoyed the Meissen porcelain factory and the city itself.
But we felt the highlight of the tours were the tours in Berlin, so much history, such beautiful architecture and we really
enjoyed the palaces in Potsdam. The one ...

We have sailed twice with Viking before in Europe and knew pretty much what to expect. We were not disappointed. Viking runs a very professional organization designed to provide a quality vacation.
The Astrild was purpose built for the Elbe, which is not a vast river and is a bit off the beaten path. As such, there are only two decks and no elevator. (Something to consider if mobility is an ...

I had traveled on VIking on other time, and liked the itinerary of this trip. It was well planned with great excursions. The food was excellent and the staff were great. The excursions went off without a hitch. Each one was very informative and interesting. We especially enjoyed learning about Martin Luther. The entertainment on board was good and we enjoyed his music selections. Very ...

Having been to West Germany with Viking, I wanted to experience East Germany.
It was exceptional in all aspects of the trip.
Two days in a hotel in Prague. Five days on the ship. Three days in Berlin.
In both Prague and Berlin we were comfortable in that Alan (our Cruise Director) had given us a short tour and then many great recommendations of places to eat and/or visit. Both the ...

We did this as our first river cruise because I daughter got married in Germany. I absolutely loved it. I thought it was a beautiful experience. The food was spectacular. Could not have been better. Loved the exposure to all of the German food. The staff on Viking as always were spectacular. The could use with getting new beds on this ship. They are not great. This was our first river cruise so ...

I wanted to experience Berlin, so I chose this river cruise. We went into Berlin two days early. The history of this majestic city, with its impressive restoration, was certainly something I ll never forget. The Berlin at Night Viking tour was a gem. The cruise continued on the quiet Elbe, Wittenberg, Meissen and the stunning city of Dresden. Again, the restoration of this town destroyed in ...

This was our first Viking Cruise and it was chosen to get in time in Berlin, Wittenberg and other sights in the former East Germany. Two nights in the Westin Grand in Berlin were included before five days aboard the ship. It was a very good location to work from, but the hotel was not up to Westin standards. Breakfast service was poor and the selections minimal by comparison. Admittedly, what ...
