Viking Skadi River Cruises Reviews

This was our first trip to Europe and our trip did not disappoint. Our trip exceeded expectations at every turn. One of our concerns was how the dining service would attend to my husband’s food allergy. They were so thoughtful and served his correct meal each time along with the other diners at our table. Our room was comfortable and well attended. Our ship was clean and well managed. Our ...

We wanted to do something special for our 50th anniversary which was in December prior. My husband had always talked about these cruises and we wanted to do the Grand European to get the most time in. Everything was nearly perfect. It was great right from the transfer from the airport in Amsterdam to the ship and then from ship to airport again at the end. There was one hiccup in the middle of ...

My sisters and I have wanted to go on a Viking Cruise for years. The time was finally right. Cruising from Amsterdam to Budapest was an absolute delight and the entire crew was fabulous! Viking takes such good care of its guests and every detail was handled to perfection. Our Program Director, Igor, was the BOMB! The entire staff bent over backwards to tend to our every need. Because of ...

My wife and I really enjoyed our Grand European Tour on the Viking Skadi! We plan to do other cruises in the future on Viking river and Ocean ships as we really felt that Viking did a great job of taking care of us. We really enjoyed all the stops on the cruise and did the pre and post trip extension in Amsterdam and Prague. Prague ended up being our favorite city. Our Program Director ...

We decided to book this cruise as an early 50th wedding anniversary celebration (we just passed our 48th anniversary) to take advantage of the reasonably good health we are enjoying now. We couldn't be more pleased with our trip. We spent four days in France (that we arranged) ahead of the Viking cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam via the Viking Skadi. Everything about our trip was enjoyable; ...

We chose this cruise because we love history and wanted to see castles, cathedrals and palaces. We were amazed at every stop. We were even able to take a last minute added excursion to Bratislava, Slovakia, and absolutely loved it. Our Program Director, Anthony, was truly wonderful. He knew everything about everything! And he seemed more than happy to share his knowledge with us. I can't ...

Always wanted to do a river cruise on the Rhine. Finally booked when Viking had a free air promotion. Words can not express how amazing this cruise was. The ship was modern and clean. Our steward cleaned our Veranda cabin twice a day. Did not use the veranda much. Too busy either on excursions or on the top deck. Most traveling on the river done at night. Exception was the middle Rhine. ...

Went on cruise with spouse for 25th anniversary. From time we stepped on board to end of cruise, amazing experience with wonderful staff that were attentive to our needs. Nikola and housekeeping staff made sure our room was always immaculate. Chef Florian made amazing meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Darota and dining staff served us with genuine care and smiles. David our program ...

This was our first Viking river cruise, but certainly not our last. As experienced cruisers we had an expectation of what the river cruise would be like, but Viking far surpassed it. The smaller ship allowed for a more relaxed and congenial relationship between our fellow travelers and ourselves, as well as with the ship's crew. We had, by far, the very best food experience on this ...

We chose Viking on the recommendation of family and friends who have taken many Viking cruises. They all gave Viking terrific grades on everything from the Tour Director to the Dining & Stateroom staff. They weren't wrong!! The cruise was spectacular and we even had some snow flurries during our visits to the many Christmas markets in Germany, Austria and Hungary which made my wife very happy. ...
