I picked this cruise on the recommendations of friends and the wonderful ads they run, it was the worst experience ever. After a delayed flight in arriving at the airport when I called Viking for my pick up, I was told to get a cab I had paid for the transfers, but they weren’t willing to come get me. Things went from bad to worse. The only rooms available. were on the first floor, but I was told ...

We were on the second trip of the Viking Gefjon, and also had room 205. Our trip was totally different than Ralphster. Due to high water, the ship was stuck at Kehl/Strasbourg for 5 nights. Each day, we would gather at 7 pm to hear what was going to happen the next day. Some days it was close to what the itinerary promised. Most of the time it wasn't. Each day there was a 20 minute walk to get ...
