We were very pleased with our first experience with Viking. We definitely plan on taking more trips with them. One of the most important aspects of our trip was that there were no attempt to sell you anything. There were no photographers following your around or pictures being taken as your entered and left the ship at the various ports. Even though there was 993 people on the ship, we took the elevator many times alone and never had to wait over a minute for an elevator to arrive. There was never long lines, except when returning to the ship, but it went pretty quickly. There is no casino nor children, which allows for quality time with your guest or just connecting with people from other parts of the country.

Viking River cruises is more of a culture experience. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants a rich culture experience with the atmosphere of relaxation and quality time with your loved ones.
