We chose this cruise to visit Normandy, but Viking made the trip very interesting and exciting by including excursions that were educational and rewarding.
The staff was wonderful. It seemed like they couldn't do enough for you. Every one of the staff took time out to greet and talk with you just making sure that your every need or desire was fulfilled.
We opted for the Paris pre trip extension and the hotel was two blocks away from the Eiffel Tower. Viking also had us onboard the ship for an additional day in Paris so there was plenty of time to explore.
All river cruise vessels have smallish cabins but we never felt crowed or got in each others way Storage was adequate climate control excellent (heated bathroom floors a real plus) housekeeping excellent, facilities excellent
