We chose Viking because of reputation in the river cruise market. Dollar for dollar they were deemed the best value. Friends who have taken several river cruises on several lines recommended Viking.

The service staff were excellent as was the wait staff. The food was superb and well presented. Staff seemed to go out of their way to make this sailing experience memorable. Tour guides were very knowledgable and the activities director was excellent.

Due to low river levels we were forced to change boats to continue our trip to Amsterdam. It was understandably concerning to passengers. It was however a seamless move to a sister ship with our luggage waiting by our suite door upon our return from a tour. We were put in the corresponding suite on the new ship. As we had experiences great housekeeping and wait staff, we were concerned about what to expect from the staff on the new boat. Our fears were totally unfounded as the staff on the new boat were equally as professional and friendly as those we left behind. Overall, the boat and its staff were of the same superior quality. The consistence all around made the transfer of little or no consequence.
