I really wanted to see the infamous Christmas markets-and this trip delivered. Several good markets in Vienna, and Regensburg - beware the Nuremburg market may be too crowded for some- Lots of interesting and informative tours and enjoyable bonus experiences ($add on- Opera night and Schönbrunn Castle - both well worth it). Happy hour daily includes free drinks, and liberal pouring at meal times. ...

We selected the October 15, 2023 Viking River cruise Capitals of Eastern Europe on the Viking Kadlin based on our previous wonderful experience on the Waterways of The Tsars on the Viking Truvor. The day before we left for our Prague pre-excursion we received an email stating “As you may be aware, the Danube River is currently experiencing low water levels.” NO I was not aware of low water levels; ...

Everything on this cruise ran late, from embarkation to disembarkation. At first we were told it was due to the low water level at Danube and things will be back to normal once we leave the Danube. But we never caught up with the schedule. We skipped a port - Passau. Waited for the boat to show up 3 times after shore excursions - once for 1.5 hours at an industrial yard. Ate dinner at 9 pm ...

This would be our 4th cruise with Scenic and this time, to an area we'd not seen before. The trip down the Danube took us to seven different countries over 16 days, 5 of which we'd not seen before. The river ports and inland sites we visited were interesting and the tour guides were great at giving background information and history of the city and country or the particular point of interest. ...

We chose this cruise to round off our European river cruises collection with Scenic. This was cruise number eight for us and we have thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. We were a bit spoilt by the first one as it was a cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam visiting several wonderful Christmas Markets along the way. The only thing missing was some festive snow. However, our cruise director came over ...

I always wanted to visit Bulgaria and Romania. I had visited Vienna and Budapest before but everywhere else was new to me. I must commend Michael, the Program Director for an outstanding job with all the intricate logistics of getting 177 people where they wanted to go and especially for dealing with the issues of a shortened cruise due to three ships aground. His historical knowledge is ...

Classical Music Centered Cruise

This cruise had an emphasis on classical music, with concerts on and off the ship, tours of composers' houses and related museums etc. We combined it with a pre-cruise land portion - 3 nights in Prague at the Hilton Old Town. The cruise started in Vienna, sailed west as far as Linz, then retraced its route and went past Vienna to end in Budapest. It's a bit of an unusual route but suited us. ...

New Cruise - Hiccups along the way

2-5 Cruises • Age 50s

This was our third time River Cruising with Viking. And things got off to a rocky start with an estate room that smelled like sewer gas and the crew not doing anything to remedy the problem. The shore excursions seemed stretched at times like they had no idea how to fill the time. And then when they had a good excursion they rushed the groups and failed to factor in shopping or just walking ...

Capitals of eastern Europe was our 10th cruise with Viking and a kind of a mix bag of feelings. It’s obvious that Viking started to cut the corners: the food was not so exquisite like before sometimes bland or overcooked, time in ports was enough just to buy one of the optional excursion (very annoying sometimes as we like to explore ourself the places we visit), the RINDA ship was old with a ...

This was our 6 cruises with Viking and it was our best trip ever. We decided to take the new itinerary “Capitals of Europe” because we never had the chance to travel to this part of Europe. Viking Rinda it was not a very new ship and of course needed a maintenance soon as us and couple of other passengers we had problems with smelly toilets, internet and temperature in our cabin. But the ...
