We originally chose this tour in 2020 and we all know what happened then! We chose this tour to experience the Danube, Main and Rhine rivers in one trip and because my heritage dates back to the 1700s in Germany. The trip was beyond our wildest expectations. The itinerary is fabulous as were the tours. Service on the ship was top notch. The food was excellent and plentiful. We felt at home ...
This cruise was definitely the first of many with Viking!
I traveled with my grandmother and we both had an exceptional experience. We did have a great time since we departed until we got back home. Viking arranged everything for us so it was a very smooth trip all together and we couldn't be more thankful.
We were able to enjoy this trip at our own pace while being part of the fascinating ...
We LOVED our Viking River Cruise Grand European Tour!!! I will have to be honest and mention a couple of things. 1. We thought this was a "Christmas Markets Tour" and it was NOT!!! Christmas Markets were part of this tour, but, not an emphasis! The tours also were at a VERY high pace and those who have any mobility questions will have to anticipate this. Another thing that I need to confirm with ...
We took this cruise with my brother and his wife. We had been trying to do this since late 2020, but trips were cancelled or we backed out due to risks associated with Covid-19. The overall cruise was great. Weather was warmer than expected, and enjoyable. We met a bunch of like-minded guests and had fun: this was true of an earlier Viking river cruise down the Rhine. Food was good, but I ...
Having lost our spouses in recent years, my cousin and I decided to take a Viking River Cruise together. And we decided to go all the way, with the Grand European Tour, and a pre-cruise extension in Prague. The trip was unforgettable; exceptional in every way. I have never worked with a company that is better organized and more dedicated to customer service than Viking. Of course, it was ...
We had been looking forward to the Grand European Tour for over 18 months and the cruise exceeded our expectations. The views along the Danube and Rhine rivers were spectacular. The ports of call and included tours gave us an interesting view into the history and culture of the region. The two day pre-cruise extension in Budapest was perfect. The Hilton Hotel was conveniently located in the Castle ...
Wanted to see more of the world, visit new sites while keeping all of our belongings in one secure place. The idea of a river cruise held great appeal. Freedom to relax on board, a manageable amount of fellow travelers, good food and interesting excursions. The food was fabulous, honoring local cuisine. We would get daily updates from the chef and all meals were uniformly terrific. Kudos to our ...
Originally we chose this cruise to celebrate 5 of us turning 70. But because it had to be pushed to the next year we were able to celebrate two couples 50th wedding anniversary and one friends birthday. 4 of us have been friends since H.S. and we were in each other weddings making this a very special celebration.
Viking does an AWESOME job helping celebrating events.
The staff is Amazing in ...
Our good friends invited us to join them on this cruise to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. At the time of the invitation, we were unable to commit to the trip, so we had to decline. Several months later, we discovered that we would be able to go on the trip, but we decided to keep our decision a secret and surprise our friends.
This was a trip we had dreamed about for years. When ...
This particular cruise was one we had been wanting to take for about ten years, and when the chance came to book the cruise as a surprise to two friends who would be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary on the cruise, we jumped at the chance.
We flew from Detroit to Amsterdam. We were met at the Amsterdam airport as promised and delivered to our ship where we were a bit early for check ...
