Viking provides a wonderful experience while traveling to Europe. I would never pay full price for the trip, so look for specials. (It can be a bit expensive.) The river longships are fun to ride on, and there is no "seasickness" effect as you might experience on an ocean ship. The crew was fabulous, and the personal attention they strive to give each passenger is the best! We want to go on ...
We were attracted to the various cruise ports on this cruise. We had heard great things about Viking Cruises and were extremely satisfied that the cruise lived upon to all of our expectations. The staff was extremely pleasant and helpful. The time allows in each port of call was just about right. The various ports of call offered the opportunity to see and experience various activities in each ...
This cruise was excellent in every respect, and the covid precautions helped keep everyone safe. The staff on board were very friendly and helpful, and the tour guides were all outstanding. Viking had their ducks in a row in every situation. The staff greeted us at the airport and scooped up our luggage, which magically appeared in our rooms later. The meals were all delicious and varied, and ...
I had never seen that part of the world before and always wanted to try a river cruise. I was not disappointed! Although there were some ongoing communication issues in the planning process, Viking could not have made things easier once we embarked on our trip. The ship was very comfortable, the food excellent, and the staff on the ship provided friendly, competent service. The chosen ports ...
We had done several other ocean cruises and thought this would be different. It certainly was. We really enjoyed the relaxing slow pace thru the Danube River. Views of the forrest and countryside were what we needed. We liked just sitting on deck watching the green hills go by.
One of the best things about this cruise was the crew. They strove to learn your name and likes. The bartender would ...
We have travelled with Viking many times (12 I think )in the pre Covid times. For this trip we met up with friends that we had met on a river cruise in China five years previously. Making friends is one of the joys of river cruising . We had the extension in Budapest staying in a first class hotel in Buda. Viking always have used superb hotels on all our trips. This trip met all our expectations. ...
We went on this cruise with my wife's sister and her husband. It was absolutely wonderful! From our flight to Eurpoe on, Viking was there, anticipating our needs. They put Disney to shame in the care of their guests! The Concierge service was unfailingly helpful; the meals delicious, the shore excursions interesting, informative and not overly tiring.
The amenities were all the most modern, ...
We enjoyed our first Viking (Romantic) Danube River Cruise in 2015 so much that we booked this Danube (Waltz) River Cruise as well. The itinerary included some of ports of call we'd been to before but others that we were anxious to see for the first time. We began with a 4-night Pre-Extension in Munich & Salzburg. There were only 3 other couples on this pre-tour and the 8 of us traveled ...
This was my wife’s and my first Viking Cruise. And I will have to say it was one of the best vacations we have ever took. The ship, food and service were remarkable. The ability to explore 4 European countries was well planned and executed. The onboard and off board activities were great as well. Both the free and paid for activities allowed us to explore portions of each country and experience ...
This was our first cruise with Viking but we have sailed on two river cruises previously with another cruise line. We enjoyed this experience very much. From the first day, the crew was exceptionally caring and friendly. Our rooms were kept spotless and in wonderful order. The food we received at each meal was like fine dining. The port excursions were well organized and all we needed was ...
