Most fabulous trip I've been on. The Rhine River through Germany and Amsterdam was always on my bucket list. Having Sister Hazel host and entertain an ALL FOR YOU cruise just sealed the deal. I couldn't have imagined it be any better than it was. Food, beverages, staff, entertainment, tours, rooms, beds...all OUTSTANDING. The quality of service provided went above and beyond my expectations. I ...
Because our two scheduled cruises in 2020 and 2021 were cancelled, we had to use the credit this year. We were not ready to be around a lot of people on an ocean cruise because of Covid so chose another river cruise. (We did end up getting Covid at the end of the trip anyway). In fact, we have done this same cruise 4 years ago and were on the same ship and in the same stateroom. That alone will ...
This was our second Viking cruise. We came back because we enjoyed our previous one so much. We were not disappointed. The ship, the crew, the food and rooms were all what we expected. The dining service was really extraordinary on this trip. Everyone really did do their best to meat our desires. The servers we had the most knew our names and what we liked to drink most of the time. We were had a ...
This was our first Viking river cruise and will not be our last. Comfortable ship, very friendly and helpful crew, great food and a good selection of included and optional shore excursions. While the low water level resulted in meeting the ship 75 miles from the initial port we were offered a bus trip back to Regensburg. We chose Viking because of the itinerary that gave us more time in Vienna and ...
We chose this cruise for several reasons:
1. We have been on other Viking river cruises and knew Viking river cruises to be delightful - everything you could ask for on a river cruise: the Viking staff, service, food, accommodations and daily excursions are so well orchestrated and first class.
2. We have always wanted to attend the Passion Play in Oberammergau. This play is only performed ...
This was our third cruise with Emerald. And it was totally up to our expectations. Sparkling ship with delightful, charming, attentive crew, all with a great sense of humour. Nothing is too much trouble. The food is delicious, and it is wonderful not to have to cook. The tours are fascinating, and the scenary beautiful. There weren't many English on this cruise, mainly American and Canadian. ...
We chose the Rhine River cruise as a last minute vacation after another trip (land with another company) was cancelled. Being our 3rd trip with Viking we did not hesitate. What we really like is the efficiency - there is nothing to worry about. The included activities were excellent as well as the extras. The Viking employees were all very courteous and attentive. The onboard activities are rather ...
My father and I chose this Viking Rhine River cruise for a new experience (we are not "cruise" people) and due to its proximity in Europe to friends we wanted to visit on both ends. I had a preconceived notion that the other passengers would all be retired, wealthy American couples. I was pleasantly surprised to encounter a wider range of participants than expected, and by design we were able to ...
We choose this cruise because of the itinerary on the rhine river. The food on board was excellent, we especially enjoyed the Oktoberfest night. Our cruise director Emily was a highlight of the trip. Her presentation and enthusiasm when talking to guests or presenting a port talk was done in a fun and informative way. Sailing past all of the castles and seeing them from the top deck of the ship ...
We had previously been on 5 Viking Ocean and River Cruises and thoroughly enjoyed all of them, even the ones during the height of the pandemic. Landed in Munich and was met by a personable and helpful Viking Representative and informed that due to low water levels on the Danube, we would be bussed from the airport to the ship in Passau, rather than going to Regensburg. The brief trip through the ...
