Viking Amsterdam Cruise Reviews

We had a great time! Every detail was taken care of. What was especially helpful was the direct flight and the assistance with food prep due to my spouse having a food allergy. The maitre dee always brought the menus the night before so there were no surprises. I only wish that the second leg of the journey aboard the Hermod had been equally impressive. Unfortunately, it was not. Not once did we ...

This was my first cruise and I have been totally spoiled by Viking. The staff, the well appointed stateroom, food, activities - all amazing. I liken a gigantic cruise ship to a resort and a Viking Cruise to a mega road trip. If you are interested in the details, history, nature, meeting people and being spoiled, then Viking is for you. The Rhine cruise was so much fun. The staff is so willing ...

After a disappointing experience with a ship of 3900 passengers last summer, we (4 family members) went back to Viking River Cruises for a relaxing vacation in the Netherlands and Belgium which was even more interesting than expected. We did the pre cruise extension in Amsterdam, before the cruise, in a well-located hotel and visited the Van Gogh Museum and the Anne Frank house on her own (be sure ...

This was our first river cruise and we absolutely loved it. The ship was nice and small to navigate and the service was intimate. The cruise director was so knowledgable and friendly. The rooms were so clean and inviting. The entire ship was new and did not look run down for how old the ship was. Each meal was a 5 star meal and it was very delicious! Each destination was amazing and the ...

This was my first cruise of any type and my first visit to Europe. I don't believe there could have been a better way to experience either of these firsts. Viking is terrific! We arrived two days early in Amsterdam and had a great time touring the city. We were somewhat tired when we boarded our Viking ship but the entire crew made those first couple of hours so relaxing and comfortable. And it ...

Vilking staff were so helpful kind and efficient. Really wonderful. Food was well presented and consistently good. Regional dishes/wine/beer are included when possible. Don’t forget to ask for regional -included wine or beer.. as it changes. Many meals include both menu ordering and buffet. They individually cared for those with dietary restrictions. Tip: (just ask) I forgot to order my salad ...

We were on the first voyage for the year. Everything was seamless in the way it functioned! My Cousin referred me to Viking, based on her experiences with Viking in the past. I loved unpacking once for a 2 week vacation in the spring, yet traveling through the heart of Europe! It’s like staying on a floating 5 star hotel! Only negative thing I can say is that laundry, for some reason, now ...

This was a dream cruise for me and a high school friend. The time of year was perfect because it became early spring and none of the towns were crowded. Saw UNESCO castles and churches and Roman ruins -- and got to know some very sweet small towns where we docked by just walking around. Everything on the ship was ideal, from room to views to tours to food. It was fun to try the regional dishes ...

Absolutely loved this cruise! I’m a younger cruiser (39) and I had a blast. A friend and I had been wanting to tour Europe and this seemed like a good fit. I think it hit all of our expectations and even surpassed on a few. The service was outstanding. All of the staff helped to make for an unforgettable vacation. The food was superb. I loved the regional specialities. The cabin is small but very ...

I was sick most of the time and had little to no access to meds. I came home with Covid. Testing and meds were not available on ship. The ship was nice, clean and rooms well appointed, if not very small. The weather was cold, so the balcony wasn't really used. The food was good and the cruise director was excellent. The staff was very friendly (except for front desk), remembered names and ...
