carefully curated excursions led to an amazing and thorough experience
"Our dock in Paris was in an excellent central location with a view of the Tour Eiffel from our ship, and an easy walk to it.We often had the same tour guides for our excursions and one in particular, Prunelle, taught us how to navigate the Paris Metro on our own, which came in very handy on the 3 day extension in Paris...."Read More

Review for Viking Skaga to Europe - River Cruise

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s
The cruise experience was fantastic from start to finish. It was our first time on a river cruise. Viking took care of everything beginning at the airport. We took advantage of many excursions throughout our stay in Paris and on the cruise, and we appreciated the very knowledgeable guides. It was a real vacation where every detail seemed to be managed by Viking. It was wonderful to unpack on the ...

This was a bucket list trip and it satisfied in every way. Service and food on the ship was exceptional, simple and elegant. Staff was attentive and helpful. Educational programs prepared us for what we would see next and entertainment often tailored with what we had done that day e.g. French opera singers, WWII songs, etc. We often had the same tour guides for our excursions and one in ...

I have always wanted to take a Viking Cruise because of the varied itineraries. My friends had taken Viking trips and highly recommended them as well as this exact trip. I also had a desire to go to Normandy because my father was in World War Two and I was a retired history teacher. The food was excellent at every meal. There was a variety of choices. The meals were served by the best servers who ...

Our friends and I had heard of Viking and liked the small ship size of a river cruise. We decided on France due to the offerings and highlights. It exceeded our expectations - everything was perfect: the room, the food (extraordinary!), the staff (amazing!), the comfort of the ship, the regular and extra excursions, the smooth sailing, and the guides (very knowledgeable and personable). I learned ...

We added this river cruise after spending a week on the French Riviera, attending a wedding. The cruise itinerary, besides Paris, included Normandy - a bucket list item.
To see and walk the actual invasion beach along with visiting the cemetery was quite emotional.
Although we had studied and practiced the French language weeks before the trip, it was never an issue on the cruise. Of ...

We had never been on a river cruise. We knew several couples who had shared their experiences and wanted to see for ourselves.
It was the best experience we have ever had on a boat!
Being so near shore and able to see the small villages and castles was breathtaking.
We really enjoyed the shore excursions provided as well. We learned so much about the locals there and it was such a time ...

I wanted an easy vacation that required as little planning on my part as possible. I wanted to be pampered and see as much as possible. I didn’t want to think about my meals or have to change hotels. I didn’t want to have to research and plan and book excursions. Viking did it all and it was included!!! Such a great way to see France and Normandy!
Highly recommend! The crew went above and ...

We chose this cruise because it was in an area I had been to but my wife had not. We went early and spent a few days in Paris. We did this on our own as we did not want to be limited, we wanted to see certain things. This worked well for us, an inexpensive Airbnb in a nice neighborhood with everything in easy walking distance.
Boarding the ship was easy. The dock was just downriver from the ...

My husband and I, rookie river-cruisers, traveled with my elderly mom and her sister who are seasoned veterans. Everything they told us about what we would experience was true: fabulous staff, exceptional customer service, interesting and varied excursions - all of it! The cruise had just the right amount of "bells and whistles" for us, as we didn't need many of the typical ocean cruise features ...

This was a really fun way to see France. There were so many beautiful cities and scenery. The entire cruise staff was very friendly and helpful which made for an unforgettable cruise. We really loved the cabin and all the room to be able to sit and plan our day. The ear pieces for the excursions were a surprise and made the tours very pleasant as you didn't need to crowd together to hear the ...
