I chose this cruise because my dear friends louise and don cox recommended it. they have been on 7 previous viking river cruises.
The food was fabulous, the side trips were amazing with wonderful knowledgable guides.
The busses, canal boat, and train used on the side excursions were top of the line.
The waiters, expecially alexandra and rudy, were super efficient and friendly; the ...
Our first Viking Cruise was canceled due to COVID. So when my friend from Kindergarten and her husband invited us to join them, we immediately said yes. The Alsvin Ship cruise and crew were amazing. Every crew member, the hosts, the servers, the receptionists, the housekeepers, the chefs, the captains, the tour guides were so very kind, helpful and knowledgeable. Prior to embarking on the ship, we ...

This was my first time on any cruise and it was a phenomenal experience. The staff was soo welcoming that I didn’t want to leave, most esspecially Mercy a buffet attended. We were the largest family on the cruise and her service was exceptionally awesome. Always checking ...
Thanks to my fellow cruise critics for your Equinox reviews. They are spot on. Everything about this ship is just a little better than most. We thought our experience was a good value and would recommend it..
We are senior travelers. The ship provided everything we wanted from a cruise. All of the public areas have a large and luxurious feel to them. The elevators are well planned and ...
We had a wonderful cruise to the southern Caribbean. We usually sail on Princess, but this ship had a great itinerary and a good price. This ship is going into dry dock and our balcony showed signs of wear. There was lots of rust , but maintenance came and painted it to give it a better look. The paint smell was a little overpowering. The food was delicious and escargot, shrimp cocktail, and ...
We rebooked on another bargain cruise in Yacht club on Euribia. We loved every minute and look forward to returning soon.
The yacht club is well run and all our needs were met. Fabulous staff including butler Abhi and assistant butler Timmy who spoiled us rotten. Any issues were immediately rectified by them along with the excellent concierge team.
Food was top notch and restaurant staff ...
So for some context this was our 30th cruise with 6 different cruise lines, 6th with MSC and 3rd in yacht club.
Hands down this was our favourite ship ever.
Pro's-
The ship is utterly incredible. Yes it's massive, but there are so many incredible venues and locations and although it was full it felt like it handled the numbers well.
Loads of swimming pools and massive hot tubs. It's ...
This was a dream cruise for me and a high school friend. The time of year was perfect because it became early spring and none of the towns were crowded. Saw UNESCO castles and churches and Roman ruins -- and got to know some very sweet small towns where we docked by just walking around.
Everything on the ship was ideal, from room to views to tours to food. It was fun to try the regional dishes ...
We chose a Viking river cruise for our first ever cruise based upon research and reviews, and we were not disappointed. From the moment we stepped onto the Alruna, we were made to feel at home. From our room steward, to all the wait and lounge staff, we were very spoiled. The cruise director was definitely an “energizer bunny” who was always helpful and on top of things. We absolutely felt as if ...
Regent really delivers luxury and at a high level. Naturally, there are occasional blips but this inevitable and does not take any from the overall experience.
The service culture is evident. Management is visible and engaged in daily operations. I had not observed this on other cruise lines. The service staff is well trained, some are working on their english but all are clearly guest ...
