Passau Cruise Reviews

We chose the Danube Waltz because the countries visited and the region were on our bucket list. The thing that stands out the most to me is the organization and seamless process Viking creates to make the journey so comfortable and stress free. From the color coded bag tags, to the Viking ambassadors that met us at our arrival airport to the departure transfers the stressful parts of the trip were ...

We did the Rhine a few years ago and wanted to try the danube. This cruise was a little different as most of the cruising was done at night. Just different from the Rhine where we saw more scenery. Tours were good, but we did not take advantage of the optional tours, there were a few that we should have done. Thought they were a little more pricy that I would have expected. Food was great and ...

We chose this cruise because of the countries we would be visiting, good timing for us, recommended by friends who took this cruise. This was a really great experience. The excursions, the food, but especially the staff! Never have I seen such a hard working group of workers. They were passionate about their job and catered to our every need. If I was buying a beer at the bar a waiter would ...

My late father had introduced us to Viking. He was a early believer in and investor of the originally European branch. We have been on Viking several times and never disappointed with the big picture. Food always delicious and healthy (options), what I missed this time were the salad bars! The educational talks are one of the main reasons we keep returning to Viking and most fellow Viking ...

We chose this cruise because it went to places we wanted to see, and doing some online research, the Danube was recommended and Viking was rated as one of the best river cruise lines. We also took advantage of a free airfare promotion. PROS: - Ship was beautiful and well laid out; Cabin review in separate section - All staff were very helpful and attentive - Food was excellent with ...

My wife and I had taken the Viking Rhine River cruise last November and loved it. A river cruise had been on our bucket list for quite some time and when Viking offered free airfare it was too good a deal to pass up. So when they offered the Danube Waltz cruise with free airfare we jumped at the chance and invited my sister and niece to join us. Well if anything the experience was even better. Of ...

I really enjoyed myself on the Viking cruise along the Danube. The smaller ship allowed me to get to know lots of my fellow passengers. The activities in the evening were terrific and increased the sense of community found on the smaller ships. I appreciated the special touches, like the Mozart chocolate that greeted us as we returned from our excursion in Vienna. I also was delighted to find ...

We were able to visit the cities that we had a very strong interest in seeing. The tours were great and the Viking staff and Tour Guides were fantastic! We started out in Budapest, Hungry and had a walking tour of the city folllowed by our own sightseeing in the afternoon. The next day we went to Bratislavia, Slovakia with yet another walking tour of the city foloowed by an excellent lunch. Next ...

We chose Viking's new itinerary, the Capitals of Eastern Europe, because it took us comfortably to an area of the world that we had never seen or experienced. We were not disappointed! Our pre-trip to Prague, Hungary was wonderful! Prague is a city full of friendly people and beautiful Baroque architecture that is easy for English speaking travelers to get around in because about 60% of the ...

I was looking for a nice trip for me and my adult daughter. She is an experienced traveler and has been to Europe quite a few times (her husband is from England and she has friends in Ireland and Italy). This seemed like a great trip that covered a lot of geography in as a relaxed way as possible. I wanted some structure, but the ability to do some on your own sightseeing including getting off the ...
