Passau Cruise Reviews

After an awesome cruise on the Rhine with friends a couple years ago, we joined the same group for a next cruise plan. Unfortunately, that cruise was postponed due to the pandemic - twice. Finally, we were back together for a second cruise on the Danube. Our expectations were high, and we were rewarded with another grand adventure Viking River Cruise. This time we scheduled a pre-cruise in ...

Being that it was our first Viking River Cruise, or any kind of cruise, the questions abounded. But from landing in Munich to begin our journey, to the boarding of the River Boat Embla, we quickly discovered that the Viking Crew had everything in hand and all of our questions, and those even not thought of were answered. It was actually such a whirlwind adventure we didn't even realize how great ...

We had been on Viking River cruises before and enjoyed them. This trip was no exception. We had a wonderful trip. It was a new itinerary for Viking. Although we had been to Vienna and Budapest with Viking on previous trips - there was still a lot more to see. The program director, Leonard Miron, was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. Since he was originally from Romania, ...

When we signed up for the Viking River Cruise “The Danube Waltz” I have to admit it was the dates as much the journey that we liked. My step-daughter was traveling in Spain with a school trip and I wasn’t going to stay in the states while she saw Spain. So my wife and I were excited to find a river cruise through a part of the world we had never visited with the fact same dates. The kicker was ...

We have been on numberous ocean cruises previously but our last 2 were with Viking. We quickly became converts to the Viking experience. We love the smaller ship size, adults only and the genuine care that each of the ship staff provide for the guests. One of the best parts of the smaller ship is the people you meet along the way, from the guests to the staff! You see the same people a lot and ...

We chose this cruise because of Viking's reputation and our prior Viking experience on the Rhine. The pre-cruise extension allowed us to spend extra time in Muniche and Salzburg, the home of Mozart. We were able to see where the "Sound of Music" was filmed and could imagine ourselves as part of the movie. We took our picture in front of famous "gazebo" at the Hellbrunn Palace, where song "I am 16 ...

We chose Viking because many of our friends had done their river cruises before and loved them. We chose this cruise because we had always wanted to visit Budapest, Vienna and (especially) Prague. We were not disappointed. From the moment we arrived in Prague, Viking staff took care of everything. An incredible, well-oiled machine. The boat itself was wonderful, and once again, the Viking crew ...

We had previously taken a Viking Rhine River Cruise and enjoyed it so much that we wanted to do the Danube Waltz cruise with them. We started with their Prague pre-excursion package and stayed at the Prague Marriott hotel. The hotel was conveniently located near the Old Town, with many shops and restaurants. The breakfast was excellent. We did Viking's Prague walking tour, the Prague Night ...

We chose this cruise because of the location- Prague to Budapest- and because 3 couples from different areas of US wanted to experience a trip together. Our hotels were located near sites and public transportation. There was a long and then rushed bus ride from Prague to Passat but then we boarded and the adventure continued! Wait staff was first rate- always ready to meet our needs. The cruise ...

Our second Viking river cruise. First was Rhine: Basel-Amsterdam. Eastern Europe is very different! About Viking: As expected, ship, crew, everything wonderful. Viking really has their act together. Can't say enough good things about them. About the itinerary: Everywhere we went, we heard the guides and the locals tell us what hell it was to live under Communism, and how they are ...
