River Cruises Reviews

This is one of many river cruises my husband and I have taken with the incredible company, Vegan Travel (www.vegan-cruises.com). We have sailed on many different boats but the experience is always the same - wonderful! The MS Joy is a beautiful boat, with well-designed, clean and comfortable cabins that make you feel special and at home at the same time. When Vegan Travel takes over the boat ...

Very happy with our 1st cruise experience. It was the 1st cruise of the season as well; so there was new employee staff that will only get better with serving, besides Super Mario, he was outstanding, remembering us personally, addressing us by our names and what we liked to drink. House keeping was amazing! The food was spectacular. Every meal was flavorful, beautifully organized on our plates ...

We had a great time. On board staff was excellent. Social Director did an outstanding job; full of energy. They did everything thing they could to make our trip excellent. It was the 1st cruise of the season for this crew and boat. Had a problem with one of the engines. Had to leave Budapest early and got to Vienna almost a day late. Viking let us re-arrange or cancel excursions with full refund. ...

From the moment you walk on board, the entire staff caters to you. I felt like a princess. The food on board was great, and the selection was wonderful. The dining staff consistently went above and beyond, memorizing our favorite meals, putting together special sandwiches for us. The Chef’s Table meal was so delicious. It was hard to be hungry on board the AmaLyra. Bartender Paula made ...

We certainly enjoyed our recent Danube River cruise on the Viking Vali. Yes, the weather was cool and rainy, but that did not affect our touring that much. We chose this time of year because we did not want to deal with potential low river water levels in the Summer or Fall. Overall Viking's arrival services were seamless--fast pick-up at the airport, comfortable bus transfer to the boat, ...

Swiss Alps to Paris Had a wonderful trip across four countries on two different European rivers. DH and I sailed past beautiful castles, visited incredible churches, several UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and enjoyed good food onboard and on our own. We experienced a lively wine tasting, visited an historic castle, had the Gutenberg Museum opened for a brief visit just for Viking passengers, went ...

We had a very good friend recommend Viking River cruises, specifically this one. We had a good time, but was so disappointed with having to be bussed to change ships and to several towns. Because of this we missed a lot of the scenery that is so integral to a river cruise and why we chose this one. We also did not have the scheduled glass blowing demonstration on board and missed free time in ...

We were totally spoiled from the moment they met us at the airport. The service, food, accommodations, excursions and entertainment were all excellent. I knew very little about that part of Europe and enjoyed learning and experiencing it in style. I was especially thankful for the care and attention given to accommodate my special diet. The food was fantastic, its presentation was worthy of ...

Viking was just great. However, due to the strikes in France, we didn't cruise much but used buses and spent the last two nights in a hotel. The staff was wonderful. The vegetarian options for meals could have been better, especially once we were off the ship. Viking extended a 1/3 $ voucher. I think a partial refund would have been better. We saw amazing sites and our guides were ...

Chose this cruise with my neighbor, who then had an accident just 3 days prior and was unable to go. My niece came with me and we had a great time. Easy transfer from the airport in Basel. Room was adequate, really did not spend much time in the room. Would have been nice to have a balcony on the day that was quite cold and rainy when we sailed up the Rhine and saw all the castles, but on a ...
