Big Mistake

My mom and I did this cruise with a different company and had a blast. Viking’s program was awful and felt cheap. Way to much busing, no small town stops. The worsted we playing catch-up to the ship each day. Our ship lost an engine instead of moving to a new one we lost a day while they fixed it and put us up in a hotel. We did get individual room but that was probably because of almost everyone ...

Horrible Experience. Viking was completely disorganized and acted like they had never done this before. The food was horrible. The internet service rarely worked. Your on-board account didn't work and they never got it working. They cancelled your shore excursion without telling you until the day of the excursion, at which point it was too late to schedule something else. Then, they wanted to ...

We chose Viking for their reputation, first. When they announced "free airfare" and $25 deposit, it was too good to pass up. At 60yrs. old, we were afraid we would be the youngest ones on the ship. That was far from the truth. We met really fun passengers older and younger than us. Viking took care of everything. We did as much or as little as we wanted, when it came time to tour or being ...

This is a great cruise to see the other side of Europe. These are mostly ex-Communist countries that have a different history than western Europe. Very informative and the Danube is a great river. The cities have a more "worn" look to them than in Germany and France, but this is not to diminish the cruise. I recommend it. In Osijek, Croatia, we were hosted in a local home, around their ...

This was our first river cruise, and first cruise with Viking. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed the Viking Lofn experience. The crew were superb and really aimed to please. Our cruise took place while Viking was instituting a number of COVID protocols including daily testing on board and masking. Those have since been discontinued by Viking which would give me pause before doing another river cruise. ...

A simple answer is because COVID prevented us from sailing in 2020 and 2021 on our Russia cruise. After two cancellations we decided to take this cruise with the added cruise from Budapest to Bucharest. Our first cruise was the Grand European in 2016. This trip we added two more siblings making a full dozen passengers. Those on the first cruise enjoyed the Grand European so much we willingly ...

We chose this tour because the itinerary appealed to us. The entire cruise far exceeded our expectations. We give superlative reviews to the accommodations, the food and the excursions. Viking’s attention to the fine details is to be commended. We felt quite pampered during the entire trip. The cost of the tour may be more than the average cruise, but then, this was definitely not your average ...

Had a great time. We Especially liked ports of smaller towns and those where we were able to easily visit in the evening. The food was excellent!! Good job George. So much better than Viking Herja the following cruise (5/28)! Richard, the cruise director, was excellent! Every excursion was very well organized. Richard was nearby for each making sure all was going well. Richard and George also ...

I knew much less about Eastern Europe than places like Vienna, Paris, and London. Viking found interesting things to show and I learned a great deal about these countries. Lots of opportunities to sample local cuisine and meet local people. If I could only do one cruise in my lifetime, it would be the Rhine, but since I've already done that, I'm very glad I chose this one. It helps me ...

Viking excels in customer service. It's amazing how room stewards know my name and room number before I can remember. Food is (unfortunately) excellent. They offered different soups for lunch and dinner, and they were all fabulous. I've been on both ocean and river cruises, and I like how you have the opportunity to meet people a little easier on a river cruise. Dining tables are commonly set ...
