We chose Viking because we had already travelled with Viking on the Rhine Getaway cruise and knew the high standards of service, wonderful food, personal attention and the beautiful excursions with well thought out highlights of each port. Viking always gives that little bit more that makes them FIVE STARS when it comes to value and quality! The itinerary was fabulous especially the concert in Vienna! The Christmas markets were amazing and Budapest was just breathtakingly magical. We highly recommend the Romantic Danube Cruise. The memories that we have of this time will always be some of the best of our travel experiences. Our cabin was always clean, the service superior and the staff always accommodating and helpful. As mentioned before FIVE STARS! We would definitely recommend this cruise to our friends and family. Viking is very organized, superior in customer service , they go out of their way to make sure your cruise experience is the best that it can be. Just wonderful! Viking is top notch!
