Prague River Cruises Cruise Reviews

We chose this cruise because we previously enjoyed the Christmas Markets in Austria in 2016. The cruise started in Prague which had the nicest of the markets and was beautiful from the different periods of architecture that made this city from two hundred and beyond to date. The markets in the smaller German towns were nice and the Meissen porcelain factory was extremely interesting. Our ...

We have wanted to see the Christmas markets for many years and this cruise was through old East Germany on the Elbe which we thought would be interesting. We started in Prague which had a wonderful market in the main city square. After 2 nights in the Hilton (walkable to the city square) we boarded the Astrild which is a smaller river ship-98 pax- compared to the other Viking river ships. There ...

Having sailed with Viking before, choosing them again was an obvious choice. I was going on this trip as a birthday present for myself, and took my mother along with me. It was her first time out of the country. Viking was everything we both could have hoped for with this experience. The fact that they take care of booking the flights and the airport transfers reduces a lot of the stress of ...

My daughter and I chose this cruise after two wonderful trips on the Rhine and the Danube. I enjoy history of WWII and this trip peaked my interest. I didn't give this cruise five stars because there was more bus riding than I expected. Long rides. We also spent fewer nights on our ship, which we knew in advance, but took away from the beauty of a river cruise. We did a pre excursion in ...

Having never travelled to eastern Germany, I was especially interested in Wittenberg and reformation history. I really enjoyed this part of Germany that contrasted with the areas (west) that I had previously visited. The Viking tours were well organized and of top quality. The ship was modern and very clean and everything functioned properly. Although I felt the food was a little lower quality ...

History of the area - the Elbe River excursion was amazing!! Viking set us up for the best trip anyine could ask for! From the pick up at the airport, the greeting at the hotel from our Director (Lutz), to the personalized attention, incredible daily room service, the cleanliness of the ship, the organization of the tours, the exquisite food on the ship, the people who were traveling with us, ...

We went with a group of six. The tour guides were informative and thorough. The ship was clean and easy to get around. We also really liked the small size of the ship and with under 200 people. The wait staff, bartenders, desk staff, housecleaning, ship director, and everyone else were very attentive, friendly and ready to help you at all times. . The food was delicious and presentation was ...

Had to call repeatedly to get travel documents. long wait times on phone. representative said they would help but no action was taken. All email responses say they will get back to me in 3 – 5 business days. finally got someone to help. could never contact scenic before cruise. 8/16 received email regarding low water – will have to change ships. Itinerary will not be affected. Change ships ...

We were on the Cities of Light cruise. We spent 4 extended days in Prague, 8 days on the river with stops in Germany and a short stop in Luxemborg at the American Cemetery and 4 extended days in Paris.The Rhine was not navigable in some places, but Viking handled it very professionally! I strongly recommend that you do extended days in Prague and Paris. It gives you an opportunity to meet people ...

I've been on two ocean cruises before and had great times on both of them. Viking took everything a step above what I've experienced before. From including tours at each port to amazing food/wine service included with each meal, their service exceeded my expectations. When we saw sales that included free round trip airfare to Europe, we couldn't pass up on the opportunity and I'm glad we ...
