My wife and I had spoken with friends and family members who raved about Viking cruise lines. We made our reservation back in October 2018 to take their Oberamagau, Amsterdam to Basel cruise. Obviously COVID disrupted our plans, but the 4th time was a charm. We set sail on June 11 and enjoyed a wonderfull cruise. We fell in with a rowdy bunch (my words, not theirs) at the first dinner and stayed thick as thieves for the rest of the cruise. The food is absolutely marvelous. Think five stars all the way. We took advantage of the excursions offered, every day of the cruise. We were always greeted by a charming and very knowledgeable local resident who would take us through the nooks and cranies of the days adventure. The crew was amazing. Always willing to go above and beyond to make a quests experience that much better. I guess the best testimonial is that we are already planning our next Viking cruise.
