I wanted to visit Paris and have the opportunity to visit Normandy. It was also nice to see the stops in between. The shop was docked within view of of the Eiffel Tower which was very nice. We could walk there on our own. We wee given a tour of the area on the first day and that was very helpful for the day we came back and had time on our own.
The food on the boat was exceptional. Viking ...
Chose this tour to go to Normandy and Paris. Fun time and very educational. Food was good but not superior. Breakfast gave wide variety and was very good. Soups served at lunches were wonderful. Really loved the Aquavit terrace particularly during a transit between cities. So relaxing to watch the scenery. Great service-staff anticipated our wants and made travel smoother. Much more active than ...
This was our 3rd Viking River Cruise. We love Viking and have had great experiences on 2 previous cruises, one on the Rhine River and the other on the Danube. We booked this cruise to go from Paris to Normandy and back to Paris on the Seine, where we then took a high speed train to Lyon, and embarked on the Viking Heimdal to the south of France on the Rhone River to Avignon. We extended our stay ...
The wait staff and cabin attendants were amazing. The boat was nearly full yet we were treated as if we were the only ones onboard! The boat was extremely clean and the staff couldn't have been more attentive. The food was delicious and the itinerary was excellent. The only drawback to the itinerary was it did not include Mont St Michel (which we booked on our own by arriving in Paris a few days ...
My husband and I planned this cruise a few years in advance to celebrate our milestone birthday's. The experience exceeded all of our expectations. We had never been to Paris so we add the 3 days in advance to our riverboat cruise. We were so happy we did because there is so much to see in Paris. We did a lot of walking tours, museums, cafes, shows, shopping and sightseeing in those three ...
My wife and I had cruised with Viking in the past. We were interested in seeing the Normandy Beaches and in particular, Juno Beach. It was at this beach that my wife's uncle landed on D-Day. The tour ended up at two of the Commonwealth cemeteries. There were memorial flowers available and we honored those brave men with a moment of silence. We were also very interested to spend time at Rouen. ...
We were originally booked on to the Russia River Cruise but because of the Ukraine war, it got cancelled. The 7 night Paris and the Heart of Normandy was not a disappointment, it was a great substitute.
Service and food was great! Included excursions were just right.
My only complaint is that dinner is served a little late in the evening. We are early birds and we prefer to be having our ...
This was our first time on a Viking cruise. We were completely overwhelmed by the courtesy and service of our Viking crew. One thing that made the river cruise so great was the ease of arrival and departure. Travel across the pond is never totally easy, however, upon arrival in Paris we were met by a Viking representative and escorted to a first class transfer to our ship. After our cruise was ...
Viking was recommended to us by some good friends who have sailed with Viking many times.
The entire experience was absolutely incredible. They handled everything from our flight, to the airport pick-up, to getting us settled on board. The voyage was so relaxing, and the excursions were fantastic. And the food and food service were the best. The river ships are first-class, and it was so easy ...
We chose this cruise to visit Normandy, but Viking made the trip very interesting and exciting by including excursions that were educational and rewarding.
The staff was wonderful. It seemed like they couldn't do enough for you. Every one of the staff took time out to greet and talk with you just making sure that your every need or desire was fulfilled.
We opted for the Paris pre trip ...
