This was by far our favorite cruising experience. We had only done ocean cruises prior to this. Viking staff were knowledgeable and organized. The hotels they selected were top notch. We also enjoyed the guided tours which was a pleasant surprise. Our room was very roomy and the bathroom was so much bigger than we expected. Loved the smaller venue with only 180 passengers. The food and service was excellent and we liked the menus which were designed to feature local cuisine. It was so relaxing and the European countryside was mind boggling. Would definitely go on another river cruise.
