Viking Senior Cruises Cruise Reviews

We departed Phoenix,AZ on July 12, 2022, bound for a Viking Grand European River Cruise boarding in Budapest, Hungry on the Viking Aegir. We are very experienced cruisers with 9 Viking cruises for myself and 12 for my spouse. Upon arrival we were greeted by Viking representative at the Budapest airport and boarded a bus telling us they had called the ship, and someone would be there to greet us. ...

We wanted to experience the view from all 3 rivers, however Viking closed the upper deck for 6 days. I understand why but we would have selected another itinerary had we known this. My biggest dissatisfaction was the fact that the reason we take Viking is for their Enrichment and Shore Lectures. None of this existed on the River. The Aquavit Terrace that is advertised as another restaurant ...

I am one of those naïve and gullible people who fell for Viking River Cruises because he relied on the exaggerated, positive descriptions by the parent company. “The World's Leading River Cruise Line, The Most Awarded River Cruise, Best Inclusive Value, and the Viking® Difference” sounded, great, generous, and luxurious. I admit I had not read all reviews available on the Internet that have rated ...

We booked this cruise primarily for the Passion Play in Oberammergau and enjoyed all ports of call. We had Viking throughout--Viking Air and the pre-cruise stay. A little trouble with airlines but who doesn't incur that now. Luckily, we made all flights and our luggage was at its final destination. We were three hours late coming into Munich but we called Viking and their agent met us at the ...

We surprised my mother on this cruise and it was a surprise to us how much we loved the smaller river cruise. The pre and post trip excursions were amazing, the ship and staff were top shelf, and the tours and guides they provided were excellent. Our favorite tours were the night tours! My hubby thought he would be bored on a small boat but he loved it and we were never bored! Budapest and Prague ...

My husband and I chose the Danube cruise because we had never been to these Eastern European countries and we were interested in the Prague extension. The Viking staff made everything so easy for us. The tour guides for each stop were knowledgeable and gave us insight into each place as they were from the area. Our time onboard was not only comfortable but so much fun. The staff was so very ...

This was my 3rd Viking cruise and my wife's 6th. Overall, it was fabulous. The cruise director, Edina, was so very helpful and her tour of Budapest at night was a highlight. Maître d Martina was a joy - the food on this cruise was superb - a cut above the already superior Viking cuisine. The destinations were also wonderful as were the guides in each destination - Achim in Vienna, Ester in ...

This was our first experience with Viking. It was wonderful. A great way to explore Central Europe. The food was unbelievable. The tours and cultural experiences were over the top. Something for everyone. We have always appreciated classical music experiences. Sitting in on an intimate concert with the world famous Vienna Boys Choir was unreal. There were just forty guests in a beautiful ...

The accommodations were great. The service was great. The food choices and quality were great. The sights from the ship were spectacular and the port choices were wonderful. The included excursions at each port city were informative. Language was not a barrier. Our program director was very accommodating and very helpful. She made sure each guest had a wonderful experience. We enjoyed ...

We chose this cruise because of our friends’ experience with Viking. Viking exceeded all expectations in care, planning, accommodations, and value. Our favorite memory of our trip was the personal interaction with the fabulous Viking staff . Everyone was so helpful and accommodating. They made everything less stressful which meant a great deal to my wife and me. The ...
