We picked this cruise because it gave us a chance to experience Europe with the convenience of not having to change hotel rooms every day. Wow, were we ever pleased! We spent a few days in Amsterdam, giving us a chance to explore the city. The seven days aboard the ship were fantastic. The ship and crew were top notch. The cabins clean and well maintained. The food was very good on board and it was delightful to enjoy local establishments on some of our evening excursions. The daily excursions were great with wonderful local guides providing history and giving us some local insight. We also extended our trip through Switzerland (via the Glacier Express) to Zermatt and the Matterhorn before ending in Geneva. A great addition, if you have a chance to experience this adventure. Above all, I must say that Viking pays close attention to detail and the needs of their customers. We will book again with Viking.
