Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Magni

2-5 Cruises • Age 40s
We chose this cruise for the itinerary and time of year, hoping for a chance at some cooler weather than we're used to where we're from. As it happened, the two weeks of our cruise coincided with the hottest two weeks of the year for this region. This might not have been a big deal if there hadn't been generator and subsequent A/C issues on the boat. The A/C issues impacted our cabin as well as ...

We had traveled with Viking in the fall on a cruise on the Rhine that was fantastic (Basel to Amsterdam in October 2023). Excellent excursions, excellent staff, quiet room, fun guests.
We were hoping to have another excellent experience. Unfortunately, the cruise was a disappointment. They seemed understaffed in the dining room. The food felt like college cafeteria food after a day. Strange ...

Heavy advertising prompted our booking a cruise .. we had done another short river cruise on the Yanzee River which we enjoyed and thought this would be a step up. The tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and each one was as good as the next. We stayed with the included tours as the optional ones were either booked or had too high level of difficulty for one of our group to walk/climb ...

My mom and I thought this would be a wonderful trip on a river cruise to Portugal, a place neither of us had ever been. The positive critique 1st, the cabin was nice and the food overall was a 4 out of 5. I found very little of it relaxing because we were always on a very strict schedule: rise early and go to the dining area to eat breakfast before getting on the bus for the daily excursions. ...

Our first viking cruise. We previously cruised with Avalon in 2022 in France, plus many ocean cruises. We are younger seniors that enjoy walking and biking.
Positives:
1. Clean, well maintained boat, with ample and comfortable seating at all levels.
2. The staff in every level were polite, helpful and responsive. All exceeded expectations.
3. The food in my opinion was terrific. The ...

This was my 5th Viking Cruise, second time doing the Rhine. Our very first Rhine Cruise was July 2015. Wow! Viking has changed! Many of the optional excursions were included in 2015. This time not much offered. Too many shuttles being used to get to towns and back to boat. The service has gone down. We weren’t even recognized for our 5th cruise! They did have a cocktail party for returning guests, ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s
The first half of this cruise was terrible. We had Viking arrange our travel and will never do that again. We paid the extra $100 for air plus ($200 total) which was a total waste of money. No one ever contacted us about our travel and they booked the worst flights we have ever had going overseas. It took 18 hrs and we missed the entire of the first day of the cruise.
The first stop was ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 70s
My wife and I had never been to Southern France What was unfortunate was the upper level was only open for maybe 2 of the 8 days. Even when we were ported early morning, the crew did not open upper level. The crew was magnificent, but the food was not as good as our previous cruises. The temps did not help, but we knew this going into our cruise, Temps were 90+ most days and heat index closer to ...

6-10 Cruises • Age 60s
After 10 ocean cruises we took our first river cruise and it had its pros and cons. I knew it would be different
and low key but I didn't expect this.
Embarkation - Went smoothly, no problem getting on board.
Internet - Much like other cruises spotty at best
Cabin - We had a french balcony and it was much smaller then any balcony cabin I've been in before.

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Beyla

6-10 Cruises • Age 80s
When we booked, we were told that they don’t cruise the Elbe after mid-July because the water levels in the Elbe made it impossible for the ships to sail. The day before our departure from home we received an email saying the water was too low, and we would be brought to the Viking Astrild for 2 nights, where we had a lovely view of the river. We were then transported to the Viking Beyla for 3 ...
