After trying and loving Viking ocean cruises, my spouse and I decided to try a river cruise. The experience was very nice. The pre-excursion prior to boarding the ship,the port excursions (both included and optional), cuisine, cabins, dining room, lounge, entertainment, upper deck and crew were very good.The cruise director was outstanding. Although low water levels required us to be transported ...

Nice cruise even though we had to change boats about half way thru due to low water conditions.

This is our second Grand European cruise. We so enjoyed the first one 3 years ago that we decided we would do another in the opposite direction. About half way thru the cruise we had to change ships to the Viking Rolf due to low water conditions. This ship was also excellent and was a virtual twin to the Viking Vali. Both crews were excellent and our cruise director also transferred to the new ...

Having never been to Europe except for the UK my wife and I decided to book this cruise when asked to join brother and his wife and two other mutual friends. Everything about the cruise was over the top. Viking's staff is the absolute best we have ever encountered. The entire staff from the housekeepers to the bartenders to the servers in the restaurant know your name and your ...

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 ...

We chose this cruise as liked the idea of travelling leisurely along the Rhine, an are we have driven in past years. We had to postpone from the previous year for medical reasons. We flew to Amsterdam from our local airport, and realised that the berth was close to the enormous rail terminus. On arrival we were shown to a dark dungeon of a tiny cabin, with window at ceiling level, and simply no ...

After doing the big Caribbean cruise ships a couple of times, we were tired of the "circus". Viking River cruise offered the perfect solution, a quiet stress-free week seeing some of the most beautiful cities and scenery in the world. First, no hassels. Viking did everything for us, booked the flights (airfare was included in the price!),arranged all ground transportation, had their ...

My wife and I did our first Viking River Cruise, Basel to Amsterdam, from June 28 to July 5, 2023. A few observations... - Viking really exceeded my expectations on friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, quality of the food and drinks on board (we did buy the Silver Spirits package and took advantage of it, but the reality is the daily included wines were also quite good). - The ...

My wife and I had been on several ocean cruises with our children, this was our first river cruise, and we really enjoyed it. In addition to the Rhine cruise, we added an extension in Amsterdam before setting sail and an extension in Lucerne after disembarking. There are significant differences between our Viking river cruise and an ocean cruise, all of which are listed on their website and ...

My Review- We wanted this cruise because of the itinerary and ship. This was our first river cruise, after going on numerous land/bus tours and ocean cruises. The service and crew were outstanding-always pleasant and helpful. Highlights of our cruise were going through the locks, seeing the castles, touring the windmills, and experiencing the beauty of the cities, food and culture. Touring ...

This was our first cruise ever and we were not disappointed. Every aspect of this entire trip was organized, well planned and successfully executed. No problems with flights, transfers or shipboard accommodations. The Viking staff is amazing. Each member went out of their way to provide a first class experience for their guest. The meals were fantastic, lots of options for everyone. ...
