Our third great Viking river cruise

This was our third Viking river cruise, and picking Viking is now a no-brainer: We know it's going to be terrific. From the minute we were met at the airport in Marseille by a Viking rep to the moment we entered the airport in Lyon, we were in great hands the whole time. All the land tours were wonderful (even the one the day it rained) and we can't say enough good things about the ship and crew. ...

The cruise package was delightful! The cruise has a bit of a slow beginning as we were in the beginning port of Avignon for the first two nights. Excursions took us to the town of Arles and then we joined the ship that had sailed to a new port. We loved that we had a nice selection of tours and chose to take a Van Gogh painting class. As we sailed along the Rhône river, we began to enjoy the ...

The cruise was very good but the flight schedule was terrible. We are looking for a cruise line that books air flights more thoughtfully. Recommend that the flight schedule be defined prior to final payment. Dinning staff was excellent. Chef excellent and a bit amusing as well. Ship was well run, except for an incident in one of the locks. We were provided with details of the issue, ...

Wanted to see France, this cruise was a great way to see the river area. I have booked another cruise in a different area of France to see next, so I was a very happy customer. I did not rate the family and fitness areas of the cruise very highly, but the cruise does intend to rate highly in these areas. I got lots of exercise each day walking around different parts of France and to me the ...

Could there be a better way to explore southern France, from the Lyon to Avignon other than a VIking River Cruise? I don't think so. "Explore the world in comfort", says Viking, and it's true! Everything needed for a relaxing cruise holiday is here: soothing, Scandinavian-inspired longship décor, world-class cuisine, impeccable service from friendly, well-trained staff and interesting shore ...

We did a pre cruise to Paris and had a MARVELOUS time. Super tour of Paris too. We then headed to Lyon by train....no concerns!!! They bused us to the ship and we got on board with a lovely lunch. Only problem, the temps in Europe were outrageous! 100 degrees plus most of the trip! We drank LOADS of water needless to say!!! Our cabin was small but we were very comfortable. We had a ...

We contacted Viking initially because of a special price which included free air fare. However, we were sold by the incredible sales representative we had. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely helpful. After booking, it seemed that every person we talked to who “knew” someone who had gone on a Viking cruise had nothing but wonderful things to say about it. However, we were somewhat ...

We had taken a Viking River Cruise on the Rhone River last year, and we thoroughly enjoyed that river cruise. Service on this Viking Rhone River Cruise in France (Avignon to Lyon) was excellent. The staff members we encountered were always cheerful, courteous and helpful. Our room was kept neat and clean. The lobby and other common areas were always in tip-tip shape. Shore excursions were ...

Second Cruise with Viking

This cruise was amazing. This was our second cruise with Viking. I love the river cruises because they are small, you can come and go whenever you want to. There is no seasickness on the river, because it is so calm. You dock right in the heart of each destination. The staff and crew are wonderful, and take really good care of you from the moment you arrive until the moment you board your plane ...

My husband and I chose this trip for my birthday because I wanted to return to France after having gone on the Viking Paris & the Heart of Normandy cruise 4 years ago. (And before that, I wasn't particularly interested in France, but some friends had asked then, so we said yes.) After 2 previous cruises with Viking, there was no doubt that they were going to be part of the 2017 celebration. In ...
