I chose this cruise because I wanted to do a river cruise. Viking may be the best river cruise operator but I found the cruise to be average. When we went to destinations, we were all on buses following a leader with a paddle board…..and not only would our 190 passengers be there, but several other Viking ships’ 190 passengers. The bedroom was small, the food was good. I did not like the ...
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 ...
Mainly to see Budapest and sail on the Danube.
Staff was amazing and were always accommodating.
Disappointed in some of the small towns in Germany.
Would not sail to these towns again in the future.
Weather was not good, lots of rain which put a damper on the excursions.
Main portion dinners could have been bigger. Sometimes I ordered two main courses because they were ...
We sailed on the Viking Rinda for the Danube Waltz cruise on April 3, 2022. The cruise was only disappointing in that we wasted $1800 getting a balcony cabin which we found out was NOT worth the expense.
First of all, the balcony's are very small - 3' by 5' - barely enough room to sit in a proper chair. Secondly, and most important to us, the riverboats tied up to each other in the ports at ...
Chose this cruise for the Christmas Markets from Passau to Budapest with a 3 day pre cruise extension in Prague.
The extension in Prague was outstanding, a beautiful city especially during this time.
Viking offers ‘included tours’ in each stop. Some were walking tours others were bus tours so check to see which you sign up for. We used Viking Air service and were booked on Lufthansa. ...
I am reading the review written by Disappointed in April 2019 and it could have been written by us ! Such a tired old boat , it's like an old peoples home . We have been on 2 previous wonderful Viking cruises which were wonderful so decided to book this one . So disappointed we may not do another. The ship including cabins are from the dark ages and really let Viking down . To emphasise this we ...
I chose this cruise to see parts of the world that I have not seen.
The crew were fantastic, always smiling and ready to assist. They all seemed to enjoy their job and were happy to be there. That makes a difference.
The ports were incredible, the scenery splendid. Be ready for lots of walking. The tours were fantastic, the buses were clean and air conditioned. Bottles of water always ...
We have just returned from the Viking Danube Waltz River cruise from Passau to Budapest with a pre cruise extension in Prague. We were very disappointed. We are not new to touring having done 6 cruises and 11 land tours so feel we can compare travel products fairly well.
Viking river cruising did not compare well. We had only 2 half days of daytime cruising the whole time mso what was the ...
We wanted a river cruise and found a lot of great revues
The cabin was clean, window below the view line.
Food was great, service too.
I asked for no pork on my menus.
Was totally ignored
Almost every soup or any meat was with pork.
We had $300 credit on board
Not only you can’t get the credit if you did not use it, but you can’t use it for gratuitous
So you have no ...
This was a nice trip. BUT we paid to upgrade our room to a balcony suite and expected good views. But each night they docked next to another ship and our view was the room on the other ship. We could not open our curtain. Biking did not mention this when they took out money. We actually enjoyed this trip and saw many wonderful sites. The people on board were nice. The crew was wonderful and took ...
Welcome home, Firebob3, and thank you for sailing with us aboard Viking Bragi. Your compliment towards our crew and staff is music to our ears, as well as your enchantment with our culinary...
