Our trio on the Mani of Viking fleet was very favorable and we are glad we went.
We booked all travel thru Viking and everything went according to plan and was seamless.
The destination stops were all worthwhile and we enjoyed all the tours and events. The included excursions are excellent and one should not feel the need to upgrade unless something specific sounds exciting. All the tour ...
We have been wanting to go to Europe for a longtime and a friend of ours organized a complete package, including this cruise. It was a great way to see many wonderful sights in Europe all in one trip. We started in Milan and made our way to the departure in Basel, Switzerland. The trip exceeded all our expectations with a wonderful crew, terrific food and great excursions. The Black Forest was ...
What a great introduction to Europe - the itinerary, the ship, the food, the service - all TOP NOTCH!!! The entire week was spelled out with a good amount of "free time" both on the ship and in the port cities. The water level in the Rhine can cause some changes - like having to dock at other locations other than "city front" - but Viking handled all the transportation needs flawlessly with very ...
Wanted to try a river cruise. Very nice . Crew was great, food was good and cabin very nice, extension in Basel wasn't worth the money and in the hotel we didn't have any drawers Not happy about that. Erick was great as our host in Hotel.
Elizabeth was super on the ship. Would definitely go on another river cruise. Walking tours were rough on us as we are in our 80's but we survived. ...
We chose Vikings Rhine River getaway for our’s first experience on a long boat cruise. Viking was offering special deals so we chose this itinerary to explore. Cruising this region at the end on June was perfect. We had beautiful weather which was very fortunate.Viking offers an included excursion at each stop. We found the local guides to be exceptionally good at explaining the culture and ...
We have been looking at River Cruise's for awhile as a chance to see Europe. Viking's literature interested me in how easy they seemed to make it. We booked everything through Viking even though our airport wasn't included we made adjustments to make it work. From the time we landed in Basel until we were escorted to our airline in Amsterdam, Viking delivered on their promise. We felt completely ...
We chose this cruise because we were looking for a fun way to celebrate finishing our Master's degrees. After spending years in school, we were looking for a vacation that required little to no planning; this cruise delivered that perfectly. All of the included and option excursions were amazing--I highly recommend both the Into the Black Forrest e-bike tour and the Taste of Alsace food tour ...
This Viking River Cruise was a wonderful way to sample European river villages. It was only my second trip outside of the US and having everything well planned, scheduled, and guided by experts was a stress free way to go about it. The ship was efficient in it's use of space. It is impressive how much Viking has fit onto the ship but the shared areas never feel cramped and is still lovely. The ...
Overall staff was GREAT!! But the Hotel in Lake Como was not the best. Issues with electric in room and one of the front desk (female) was not very helpful. Food was excellent, transfers without an issue. Included exclusions were good. We were a little disappointed in some of the paid exclusions. Would like to have had more time to explore in each port, and maybe add additional ports. Meet some ...
We know people that did this same cruise and loved it. It was great to see many towns/cities along the Rhine. The hospitality was excellent. We really enjoyed the food as well. The tour guides on the excursions were all excellent.
We especially enjoyed our excursion to the monastery with wine tasting and dinner. The other excursion we loved was the pub crawl. We met many wonderful people on ...
