Lived up to expectations

This was our 2nd Viking river cruise, the first being in France. We had high expectations since we had a great experience last time, and we were not disappointed. The ship, food, and staff were all excellent. Shout outs to Chris, Dali, Darwin, Darrin and Jules especially as we had a lot of interaction with them. Loved Cologne and Alsace. Would have liked more time in a couple of the places, ...

I have been on many cruises but this was my first river cruise and first Viking cruise. It was everything and more than I expected. Not only FIRST class treatment but the scenic value combined with the history lessons were off the chart. Will definitely do another. The servers in the lounge and dinning areas were amazing. Even with nearly 200 people on board they remember your name and ...

I chose this cruise mostly because of the date and location placement as part of monthlong tour of European countries. It turned out to be one of the best parts of my journey!! I met so many interesting people, and saw so many beautiful castles and towns! The service was excellent and every staff member was friendly. I will mention Bogdan, Christian, and Norman as really outstanding. The ...

Basel to Amsterdam

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Idun

6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

Trying to get to all the rivers. Had been in Amsterdam 25 years ago and wanted to get back. Have done upper and, then, lower Danube and last year, Paris to Normandy and back. - The trip to Lucerne on the pre-cruise excursion was OUTSTANDING! Worth every penny. - Walking tour of Amsterdam was a bust (some bad weather contributed and construction everywhere was impacting route) The guide was ...

This was my fourth cruise with Viking. So far I have been very happy with their service , so I am loyal to Viking. They cater to your special needs for meals and do so with extreme care and without errors. They provide a very good variety of meals including Vegan choices if requested. Very hospitable staff especially in the dining room. Managers carefully listen to your needs and make sure they ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 50s

The Viking River cruise was the very best. From everyone on the staff to the destinations, I loved it all. From the moment we arrived at the boat, everything was taken care of, and we felt right at home. I loved that everyone arrived at different times, so there was very little waiting around. Our room was not ready when we first got on the boat, so they sent us to the lounge to get food and ...

We chose this cruise and the cruise line (Viking) because we have cruised with them on 4 other occasions. From start to finish this cruise met our expectations (which are high due to previous experience). From the cruise (Program) Director to the staff we could not have been happier. The Maitré d' and restaurant staff were amazing and the food was its usual fantastic. One does not lose ...

It was chosen on the recommendation of a friend and also our travel agent. We learned a great deal of European history, the devastation caused by World War II, and the resiliency of the European people. We were amazed by all we saw and the amount of territory we traveled. We also enjoyed meeting people from all over the world and sharing the experiences with them. The excursions were very ...

POOR VIKING RIVER CRUISE

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Idun

senorac
10+ Cruises • Age 70s

We would not recommend Viking river cruise. Dealing with Viking Air was cumbersome and time consuming. Nickel and dime air charges: $100.x2, $166.50x2, $24x2, $50x2, $20.x2. And no refund on any, some being Viking mistakes, some just illogical rules. Food was poor, most guests we ate with agreed. Customer blogs before this cruise commented on poor food and Viking chose not to fix this ...
