Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Alsvin

I was hoping that after 10 years that this ship would have been given a spruce up and a refurbishment with the bland Scandi decor. A King bed split for King singles into twin share would have been a better size than a Queen bed but I suppose that would leave no room at all for a bedside table. The cost of the river cruises are alot more than the ocean cruises and considering Viking have a large ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

Our first Viking cruiser was recommended and annotated by friends, web reviews and a check of its own Viking website, so, after researching the company, we decided to book our trip and expected to enjoy the experience. We were very happy with our river cruising journey, the service was very good, the crew was always at your disposal and did whatever was needed to do, in order to make your trip and ...

Positives: The ship was immaculate. The crew was professional and very courteous. The journey from Paris to Normandy and back was amazing. The food was delicious. The staff worked tirelessly and effectively to adapt to unforeseen interruptions (strikes, demonstrations etc) making for a very impressive cruise!! The Normandy experience was very well done. Thank you for honoring ...

Wanted a small ship experience and liked the route this one took. Unfortunately the weather on our trip was atrocious. We had maybe 5 hours of sun during the entire time. Not only rainy, but very cold and windy. We were prepared for temperatures in the 50's but not this. Of course this was not Viking's fault but it put a damper on all the excursions. As far as excursions, the ones that ...

We had wanted to go on a river cruise for a while and this itinerary went to Normandy, so it checked several boxes. We were picked up from the airport without any issues until we headed to the boat. We got in about 9am, so there was a tremendous amount of traffic - it took us 2 hours to get to the boat. Checking in was a breeze and our cabin was ready shortly after we arrived. The crew was ...

This was our 2nd Viking cruise. We love Viking. They take great care of you and we don't have to worry about details! I was a little disappointed that we didn't see more of Paris. It had been many years since I had been in Paris and we were disappointed that we only had about 3-4 hours to drive around. Our bus driver dropped us off near Notre Dame and then he got lost and couldn't find us ...

This was our third Viking River Cruise and very nice. It was mostly what we've come to expect from Viking but not quite what it used to be. It seems the biggest difference is in the dining rooms with fewer wait staff. It also seems the wait staff isn't as polished as they've been in the past. I have to assume there were a lot of employees who weren't able to survive the Covid impact on the ...

Nice cruise but disorganized

The itinerary was Paris to Normandy. It started out with not being able to embark from Paris port due to a river-lock failure (which took the authorities a couple days to resolve). Instead we departed from a nice small town on the Seine just north of Paris. For us this was no problem, since we were on the Viking Buri in south of France the prior 7 days and Viking had already arranged our transfer ...

We have done many ocean cruises with several different companies, but this was our first river cruise with Viking on the ship Alsvin for the Cities of Light cruise from Paris to Prague. If you like a very structured, well organized cruise this is an excellent cruise. If you like to visit cities on your own, visit friends, or like a lot of free time at each location do not take this cruise. Your ...
