Granted- I'm a first-time cruiser, but I loved this trip. Rooms were nice and I was pleasantly surprised at the size and quality of the bathroom/shower. Food was sensational!
I've never sailed on a "real cruise ship", so maybe ...

We chose to try Viking after going on many Carnival Cruises and one Celebrity cruise. We picked Viking for the itinerary and price. We were very pleased. Although very different from our ocean cruise experiences, we loved it. We started ...

We had been thinking of a river cruise for a couple of years and after 3 groups of friends raved about Viking we pulled the trigger on a downstream Rhine Getaway from Basel to Amsterdam. We booked the 2 extra days in Switzerland as I am ...

We chose Viking because of the constant advertizing. We did check out where Viking stands as regards pricing and found it to be above the average price. But we found the price commensurate with the quality.
We could not have been more ...

The embarkation and disembarkation was smooth.
The ship was exquisite.
We enjoyed our meals with the other guests. The food was delicious and the dining room staff was so much fun to be with. I cannot compliment them enough.
We ...

We were in Germany for our daughters wedding and wanted to do something different to see more of Europe while we were there. Our first river cruise was everything we hoped it would be and more. We were a little apprehensive, as we had ...

Castles and Legends had been on our radar for a few years since seeing the first TV advertisement. The views, were as beautiful as the service was extraordinary. I can not think of a better way to see the wonderful and enchanting ...

After cruising on the Grand European last year I joined this year the Rivers of Gold in Portugal. The Scenery is stunning and amazing. Besides wonderful excursions to Porto, Salamanca, Lamego, Mateus Palace, Sandeman, Pinhao and great Port ...

I was really skeptical coming into this trip. My grandma had told me that she loved the river cruises she had been on but that people my age don't typically go- that there would be all old people. BUT, within the first couple hours in the ...

River cruises allow you to see the countryside from a floating hotel with great food, good wine, great entertainment and nice people. The Bordeaux cruise is not as scenic as the Rhine or the Danube, but visits historic towns and great ...

We sailed on the Viking Ingvar from June 24 to July 6, 2017 from St. Petersburg to Moscow and really enjoyed the trip.
Cabin
We had a balcony cabin on the 3rd floor, which was fine. While the cabin was under the Panorama Bar, the ...

We chose this Viking River Cruise after watching ads and hearing from people how wonderful Viking is. We were supposed to leave from Nuremberg but unfortunately the Danube River was too low for the ship to come into port there. So we met ...

“Passage to Eastern Europe” was our 3rd cruise with Viking, after France and Rhine and with no doubts was the BEST one! The itinerary gave us the chance to explore a part of Europe with a fantastic rich history and enjoy some ...

Having enjoyed previous river cruises with Viking and having decided that 2 weeks was too long this seemed an excellent opportunity to be in France without the bother, but somehow it failed to press our buttons. We weren't helped by the ...

This was out first river cruise, after several ocean cruises previously (Seabourn, HAL, Celebrity, Cunard). We selected this particular cruise because it synched up with business travel and included Avignon as a port of call.

This was pretty much a last minute (o.k., a few weeks) decision as my husband, thinking he might feel a bit crowded on a ship for a week, needed a bit of persuading. It was our first ever cruise and I can honestly say we both thoroughly ...

We would not normally have done this cruise, but it was for my Mother-in-Laws 80th and she wanted us there. We had a lovely time. Everything exceeded our expectations, from the boat, food, crew, and cabin. We have sailed Silver Seas, ...

This was our 4th Viking River Cruise. At the end of the previous 3, we have left the ship with vouchers towards our next cruise. Not this time. Unless something dramatic happens to change our minds, there will not a be a 5th.

We got a great value for cruising on Viking. Every aspect of our cruise was outstanding and well organized, including switching ships because of low water on the Danube. Program Manager, Stefan, was more than outstanding, including ...
