Viking Cruises provided a relaxing cruise for my husband and I. We didn't have to worry about getting to museums or sites, all of our food was provided, and we were able to see sites in three countries without moving to different hotels daily. The food was delicious, and was catered around the countries and regions we visited. Our destinations each had optional tours that we were able to use store credits to purchase. There were also down times where my husband and I were able to explore cities and towns on our own, which was nice. You were given a card when you left so the staff on board could keep track of you and make sure everyone was safe during the entire trip. Listening devices provided for each tour allowed you to take in the sites at your own pace and still receive all of the interesting, pertinent information. The staff were exceptional and helpful, and the accommodations were superb. It is worth the money and definitely a trip of a lifetime. My husband and I will definitely take another cruise with Viking in the future.
