Passau to Europe - River Cruise Reviews

I wanted to experience traveling on a longboat in Europe. It was my first cruise on a longboat. It exceed my expectations. It was smooth sailing. Everything went smoothly from picked up at the airport and returning to the airport once the cruise was over. My stateroom was very comfortable and inviting. The design of the stateroom, made it feel larger than it is. I utilized the balcony ...

We had done the Rine a couple years ago and wanted to do a Danube as we were so impressed with it. Only issue was locating our Viking representative at the airport on Budapest, after finding him he took excellent care to lead us through getting our flight. The driver from the ship to airport just sort of dumped us and left. No communication! The food and food service was excellent as we have ...

The ports were great and we wanted to try a river cruise . The food was not good and if we didn’t like lunch which we did not, there was nothing other than cookies until dinner. Breakfast was good. Only 2 dinners were good. We actually lost weight on the cruise. Also not enough staff in the dining room. Cruise director and excursions were great. Great tour guides! Staff was excellent at ...

Cruise was with an alumni association and the itinerary looked good. The Amadeus Silver 3 is promoted as having the luxury of a 5 star hotel, but in my opinion fell far short, and it was not priced as an economy cruise. It was a combination of many small things that were frustrating. Despite there being a heat wave, a 1 liter water bottle in the cabin is filled twice a day. Any additional ...

We did the Rhine Cruise a couple of years ago . Loved this cruise just as much. Were treated onboard by two incredible members of the ship’s waitstaff; Archie and Evan. This pair smoothed out the rough spots on our trip like it was natural for them to dive in and give special treatment to guests when there was the least amount of an issue. (AC down in dining room) Also met and ...

From the moment we were met in baggage claim until we passed back through security 11 days later we were treated to an utterly fantastic vacation by every Viking representative. Not a single details was lost along the way. We recovered from our jet lag with 3 days in Prague before boarding our ship, Embla. Prague is among one of our favorite cities in all of Europe and is must see on any European ...

This trip was 3 years in the planning the areas of visits and tours was a selling point. Since I enjoy comfort my travel companion and I opted for a Veranda suite was worth every penny. Fresh fruit and flowers every day a welcome bottle of Champagne a stocked fridge with water beer and wine what more could you ask and a big surprise free laundry if I would have known that I would have packed ...

My expectations, which were high, were exceeded in every aspect. The attention to passenger convenience and comfort, the attention to safety security, the choice of knowledgeable tour guides, the fabulous food, and schedule organization were managed with precision and expertise. Everyone on the staff treated the guests with the highest degree of courtesy and professionalism while exhibiting great ...

We chose the Danube Waltz because the countries visited and the region were on our bucket list. The thing that stands out the most to me is the organization and seamless process Viking creates to make the journey so comfortable and stress free. From the color coded bag tags, to the Viking ambassadors that met us at our arrival airport to the departure transfers the stressful parts of the trip were ...

Our first viking cruise. We previously cruised with Avalon in 2022 in France, plus many ocean cruises. We are younger seniors that enjoy walking and biking. Positives: 1. Clean, well maintained boat, with ample and comfortable seating at all levels. 2. The staff in every level were polite, helpful and responsive. All exceeded expectations. 3. The food in my opinion was terrific. The ...
