We will be celebrating our 50th anniversary this year and really wanted to splurge on a fabulous trip. Due to concerns over low water levels last summer and fall, we opted to book our cruise in May. As Mother Nature decided to make up for her performance last year, we had nearly a solid week of cool temperatures and sometimes heavy rains. Several of the heavier downpours occurred during our ...

Yes going again in December 2022 but it was supposed to be in December 2020 which was cancelled. Viking was recommended by my daughter in law's mother so we planned about 4 years so we finally did it when I saw a good deal last March and did this trial river cruise and we loved it. This is for adults who can walk and take advantage of the free excursions. It is quite different from the usual ...

Viking offered a price on a European cruise that we could afford, and we had been wanting to do a river cruise for a long time. We loved the format of the cruise, the relaxed atmosphere, adults only. We didn't have to choose expensive shore excursions, there was no high pressure sales of photos, etc., and there were no requirements on our time until debarkation. The guides on the tours were very ...

Wife is part Hungarian and we were both curious about that part of the world. First the positives… the food, tour guides and ship staff were all First Class and COVID guidelines were not over-the-top. Negatives… we booked several excursions and tried to find information about them once we were on the ship. Nothing on Viking’s site. I had to go to Trip Advisor to find information about Operation ...

We chose this cruise to return to some of the places of my youth and to share them with my wife. I had spent a summer in the area and this cruise included all but Praha. We had a wonderful time especially in Vienna. It was great to see the Grand city once again and share some highlights with my wife. We were very pleased with how well Viking managed the logistics of the entire experience and we ...

Think twice before paying extra for a veranda or French balcony

This was our second Viking river cruise. There were so many wonderful things about it. Unfortunately, two things interferes with my being able to give it a better rating. Just like on our previous voyage, we paid extra for a veranda room. We enjoy having time outdoors with just the two of us. During at least four of the days of our cruise we were double or triple docked, which means another ...

We'd never done a river cruise (lots of ocean cruises) and my spouse and I both saw this in the Viking brochure and said 'let's do it." The service was simply outstanding, from being greeted at the dock and checking in to checking out and leaving a week later. Staff was incredibly helpful and the city guides were incredibly knowledgeable. Even the weather cooperated for our trip. Coming ...

Chose this cruise as it was a week long and perhaps a little less expensive due to time of the year. We had done one ocean cruise prior but it (right at the end). Very quiet and extremely clean all week. Staff were very friendly and I think genuine. We put our credit towards tipping instead of full package drinks. We were told after that these tips are shared amongst everyone - even the ...

We had read reviews and heard from friends what a great cruise experience this would be so we decided to book it as well. We were not disappointed. The crew were warm, professional and friendly, our cabin was typically small but very comfortable and the itinerary was very informative ports of call. The food was quite good but we had limited entree choices which was a bit disappointing. ...
