Paris River Cruises Reviews

There were plenty of positives about this trip. The tours and tour guides were excellent. The onboard cruise director was fun, enthusiastic and give us good information about up coming ports. We had a deluxe balcony suite. It was a little small but very nicely decorated. The bedding was soft and having a king bed on a ship is always a plus. The bathroom was nice size. Heated flood and heated towel ...

The river cruise itself was good, except we could not use the upper deck. First because it rained a little, which we expected, but with the coming of all the low bridges and locks the upper deck was unavailable the majority of the time. Because of this I would not recommend this particular river cruise. The customer service before our trip was not my expected Viking experience. I never received ...

The Paris and Normandy destinations was what we were drawn to. But having the scenic gem being all inclusive was such a big draw for us. The staff in both the restaurant and bar went above and beyond in the service The daily tours were well managed and very informative. I really enjoyed the Monet gardens. Also the Canadian Juno site was really interesting and very well managed for the time ...

Our Cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest was wonderful, the ship was beautiful, the cruise director Richard was just amazing as was his off-sider Andree. The staff on the ship were brilliant, from the cabin butlers to the food waiters. We had to change ships halfway through the cruise due to water levels and went to the Ruby. Staff on both ships were very good but I must say the food on the Ruby ...

Everything about this cruise from Paris - Honfleur - Paris was excellent, with the exception of the food at dinner. Superb staff that are welcoming, efficient, kind and always ready to offer assistance. Public areas, cabin and bathroom very well designed for space and comfort. Thoughtful amenities in the cabins such as hiking sticks and water bottles. Good entertainment offering on the cabin ...

Always wanted to visit Monet’s garden and the Normandy landing beaches. Lovely crew very efficient Cruise manager, good food. I do prefer the Viking light wood everywhere and Scandinavian design but the Tapestry 2 (dark wood everywhere) very comfortable. The excursions were all very good and well organised. Not too much entertainment or lectures on where you are going on either Avalon or Viking. ...

Love Viking - Cruise Director did a great job. The places we went to were very interesting and memorable. The dining experience was excellent every day. Great organization in getting us to and from the ship. The coach that was not a Viking coach that we had was not in very good shape and the seats were very tight. The Viking coaches were much better. Loved the history lessons we ...

We chose this after we both recently retired. My wife wanted to see Paris and I always wanted to see Germany where my ancestors were from. Prague was the plus. We are both young enough yet where we want to be able to walk and see history and was not disappointed. The trip was beautiful a little on the cool side but had some sunny days mixed in. The accommodations at Paris had switched a couple ...

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 ...

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 ...
