Viking Vilhjalm Cruise Reviews for River to Europe

the overall experience was really disappointing. I felt that Viking skimped on alot of small but very important items. First off, the buffet when we arrived on the ship was sparce, not many selections. However, the check in could not have been more efficient. We have been on close to 10 cruises so far and I would rate Viking at the lowest end of the cruises. Staff was great but there was ...

A few years ago my wife and I embarked on a couple of River Cruises on the Nile in Egypt. The boats were old and in need of some updating but nevertheless very clean with excellent staff and food. We thoroughly enjoyed these cruises which truly were river cruises where for most days we sat on the sun deck watching the excellent scenery pass slowly by. My wife though had always wanted to cruise the ...

Extension in Prague was great, wonderful city but the Marriott they booked us at was the worst Marriott we ever stayed at. First there was construction noise all day, when we complained to the front desk the woman said nothing she could do. Our view was of a lower roof top...oh and the bar did not know how to make a Shirley Temple or apparently anything except a Mai Tai, the drink of the day ...

Got to Amsterdam Airport and walked to the farthest luggage pick up area and could not find a Viking Rep. Finally a man ...

My wife and I have always wanted to take a river cruise with Viking. Their commercials are enticing and we thought we would have a wonderful trip. We agreed with Viking’s CEO, Torstein Hagen, that travel was broadening and time was short. This cruise was expensive and we saved a long time to take it. Unfortunately, reality did not meet expectations. We we were forced to take long bus rides to ...

Please beware that Viking does not get the premiere ports on cruises. As we cruised on the Danube we went by all the beautiful locations tomport in Passau, Germany & ended what I would call a “ghetto” port. Please look at the photo I have posted that shows our table with 2 glasses of champagne with our scenery of rusted out machinery and water tanks. This is not the type of image that you see ...
