1-10 of 20 Europe Viking Egdir Europe Cruise Reviews
I was celebrating a milestone birthday with my friend, and this was on our bucket list. Unfortunately, we were unable to get into Munich from Amsterdam due to a major snowstorm. This hindered us from actually getting to the ship until it had already been sailing for four days. Very disappointing as we missed three of the markets on this cruise. No one to blame for weather related events, ...
Chose it because it was Viking and wanted to try. Also liked the itinerary.
Pros (many) -
The cruise was fantastic. The service and staff were amazing - very helpful, organized, pleasant, and personalized.
The ship was excellent. Everything was clean, easy to use, modern, and had everything you would need.
The food was very good - 2 star restaurant quality. Really like the regional ...
Always wanted to see Europe. According to my sister-in-law, whom had taken the same Viking River Cruise last year in July had great things to say about their trip. Unfortunately they had less water to navigate! We did have a couple of “hiccups “: missing one flight ( Viking personnel helped us reconnect) and missing luggage for three days (finally arrived)! All Viking personnel were always ...
This was our 2nd time on Viking's Grand European River Cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest and our 8th Viking River Cruise. We have been on over 20 cruises all over the world, and we consider this to be the best of them all. The crew and staff are excellent and go out of their way to make the cruise fantastic. The food is better than a lot of 5-star restaurants. I would recommend this cruise to ...
Been wanting this for many years. Finally got to go. Enjoyed this cruise. Had a great cruise director (Dan). We were able to see a lot of Germany, Austria, and Hungary. We were also pleased to gave a tour in every port of call. Our cabin was. Ice and very conveniently located. I especially enjoyed the open seating arrangement. We got to know a lot of different people from all over the country. ...
Go big or go Home! We wanted to see as much of Europe as we could. Our ship was changed to The Egdir prior to sailing.The crew and staff could not have been better. Chef Thomas was a master of his kitchen. Regional dishes were spectacular. This whole cruise was top notch and top shelf. The excursions were educational and informative. The scenery was more than we could have hoped for. Cruise ...
Overall the riverboat cruise was a really wonderful experience and we really enjoyed it. The reason I rated it as a 4 rather than a 5 is that the bed was too hard and it was difficult for me to get a good night's sleep. Therefore, I wasn't fully rested for each day's full list of events.
The attention to detail and logistics was really impressive! Everything ran very smoothly and we had no ...
A dream vacation that we had been trying to plan for more than 5 years. Awesome itinerary and excursions. Loved the small towns, architecture, and history. A great trip shared with old friends and so many new friends. The crew went above and beyond to remember each guest and make them feel special. We enjoyed the small size of guests as over the two weeks we interacted with the same people over ...
We chose Viking's 15 day Grand European tour from Amsterdam to Budapest because we figured it would give us a great way to experience many and diverse stops along the Rhine and Danube Rivers. This was our first river cruise and we were very happy with everything that the Viking ship and staff had to offer. The food and service were beyond top notch, as was our service in our staterooms. ...
We wanted to experience a river cruise as we'd heard great things about them. Viking provided first class service, food, excursions, experiences like the glass blower coming onboard, the dancers performing the Danube Waltz, our chef teaching us how to make Apple Strudel, the herb garden on the sun deck, the castles as we sailed on the Rhine and more!
We were very impressed with the timing of ...
