1-10 of 14 Viking Magni River Cruises Cruise Reviews
For lots of reasons we booked this Grand European Tour for mid October. We had a great time, but decided we probably won't do another river cruise right away, maybe not ever again. Not a knock on Viking, but a better understanding of who we are as travelers. So, the good and great. Incredibly clean, inviting atmosphere populated with helpful, gracious people, all of whom try to make your trip ...
March 31, 2019 on Viking Magni River Cruise Budapest to Passau. First suggestion, do your homework. We booked a French “Balcony” (sliding door) on 3rd Fl. Very small. Just enough room for a double bed. No chairs so reading or TV is lying on bed. Small bathroom. Very efficient but claustrophobic.
Room has fridge but only useful for bringing in shore beverages or food. Hint. Don’t ...
We picked this cruise (Amsterdam to Budapest) because we felt we should take a longer cruise if we're going to fly all the way from the West Coast to Europe. It's beautiful ship, the cabin was wonderful (perhaps my favorite of any cruise we've been on), and the service was outstanding. Our only complaint was the dinner. First, we would prefer an earlier dining time. Beyond that, it sometimes ...
I wanted to see the tulips in bloom on mass.Haven"t been to the Netherlands in many years wanted to see the changes. Was disappointed that we could"t see Ann Frank"s house and museum. The ship was not able to get tickets . I was slightly annoyed with the answer,we were told not everyone wanted to see that. That is a major attraction for Amsterdam,so many people wanted to see it. It should ...
My husband and I decided in July that we wanted to try and squeeze another cruise vacation in this year and August, 2016 was wide open for us. Viking had availability on the Elegant Elbe tour, leaving from Berlin and going to Prague. Because we booked so last minute, we got a great deal on our flight from Seattle to Berlin returning from Prague to Seattle for only $200!! The pre and post ...
This was the Tulips and Windmills Cruise, our second with Viking. Choose this cruise to see Tulips and sites in The Netherlands/Belgium. This is not a cruise with great views from ship. FYI our group of six was 55-65, the younger end of spectrum for this cruise.
Some observations about Viking and this cruise:
* As with previous Viking cruise the staff was excellent, from the cruise ...
Each port and Viking tour at each port was OUTSTANDING. The crew on our River Boat was very helpful and I must say they all went out of their way to please the passengers. This was our first river cruise and I must say that one sees sights that we would never see cruising on one of the oceans. My wife said it was like taking a train through the center of town. I only rated this cruise with 4 ...
Great food. Nice that there was always some standard, right side of the menu items. Nice that there were two options of where to dine. Only bad meal was the celebration night, everybody scrambled for seats and buffet at same time. Buffet worked great at breakfast and lunch since is was over an extended time. Service excellent and staff very attentive.
Excursions were good mostly, except ...
The Grand European River Cruise was not a disappointment. It was our first river cruise and we appreciated seeing so many cities and historical sites in one trip, The smaller ship with fewer passengers gave everyone a chaqnce to get to know each other.
We chose to have a French balcony room and were so glad we did. We would not have used the veranda with the weather in October and had better ...
Very comfortable cabin with faultless service. Staff enjoyed what they did and it showed with unexpected extras. Changing ships because of low water is certainly not the fault of Viking and they would very much wished it didn't have to happen. The cruise director made it sound like the low water thing was just happening when we all know it has happened for many cruises this year. Food was above ...
