"The other time, we packed our bags on the first boat, toured by coach, were treated to lunch at a traditional German pub, and met the next boat further downriver that evening for dinner.We left the boat for guided tours (as a prior tour guide, I enjoyed the depth of information and the professionalism of the guides Viking uses...."Read More

We were aware of Vikings reputation for quite some time.(we're not typically cruise people). To say that they far surpassed our expectations is an understatement. The accomodations, service and itinerary were exceptional. (We did book a Veranda Suite, since I am 2 meters tall.) We whole heartedly recommend this cruise. The staff is super attentive to your every need and anticipates these, often ...

A teacher-friend and I chose this cruise because of the itinerary and the added perks Viking offered at the time we booked. My friend had been on an ocean cruise previously; I had traveled extensively in Europe and Asia, but had not been on a cruise. It was such a fun trip!! We met so many fun and interesting people, both fellow travelers and staff! A river cruise involves a smaller boat, thus ...

I have been on two other Viking cruises and this was my third and longest, all in with after- trip, 3 weeks. As with the other two, I cannot say enough about our experience. Life-changing, excellent in every way. I cannot think of one thing, large or small, to find fault with. Wonderful crew (everyone), great ship, perfect stateroom, fantastic food and drink and amazing excursions. Once you go ...

Best vacation we have ever had, We rave to anyone who asks. Loved the ship, Captain and Crew was fantastic. Always polite, smiling, helpful. I and others had food allergies / special dietary needs, handled daily without exception, to such a detailed degree that I once changed my mind at the table last minute wanting some food special to a region. It was written in the local language, the order ...

We didn't choose this ship,- it chose us! from the moment we boarded in Amsterdam to the disembarkation, we were looked after royally, from the Captain down to the cabin Stewardess, we cannot fault, Our cabin on deck 2 was a "French Balcony" however even though it was a tad cosy ( read small) it still gave us an open sliding door to the world sliding past as we went up/down? the river to Budapest. ...

This was our first time to Europe, we chose Viking and this itinerary after reading reviews, we were not disappointed. From the time we landed in Amsterdam until we were taken to the airport in Budapest Viking took care of us. The food was very good, a good variety was offered. We definitely never went hungry. The staff was friendly and couldn’t have been more helpful. The ...

We picked this cruise from an advertisement. We didn't really check anything out before hand but it was for our 50th wedding anniversary so off we went. This was the most relaxing vacation we have ever been on. Viking looks after everything from the moment we deplaned in Amsterdam to check in in Budapest!! Always with you, but never in your way. We boarded Lif after a couple of fun days in ...

We chose this particular cruise itinerary in order to see a part of Europe not previously visited. Viking Cruises impressed us in every aspect of our voyage: attentive and personalized service; delicious meals, beautifully presented, and impeccably served; fascinating tours with local guides; concerts, horse shows, wine tastings, every planned adventure meticulously coordinated - and an ...

We've been looking at the brochures that came to the house for years and my husband finally said, "let's do it". We made our own air arrangements because we wanted to go business class and the business class airfare through Viking was too high. We arrived in Amsterdam a couple of days early and explored on our own. We thoroughly enjoyed the itinerary and our accommodations. Having the ...
