10 Day Cruise: 2 nights at Paris Hotel before, 2 nights at Zurich hotel after.
Exemplary staff were genuinely friendly and attentive and it set an overall friendly tone with all the cruisers. They truly went above and beyond to meet every need. Your cruise director will be a visible presence through the entire trip to make certain things run smoothly. Our director, Serge, maintained his ...
We were able to experience Paris and included the extension. Our guides Serge and Danka were a very valuable asset. The tips and tours of Paris and understanding the train system was a great benefit. Embarkation and disembarkation were organized and done in a timely fashion.
The ship was as advertised. It was a longship and resembled its pictures on line and in the brouchers. Our cabin was 270 ...
We chose this cruise primarily for itinerary as we wanted to start in Paris. We did a pre-extension on our own in Paris in order to see the beaches of Normandy, where my father in law spent the week after D-Day. We also did a Viking post-excursion 4 day trip in Switzerland. Embarkation, disembarkation, and all transfers were run exceptionally smoothly. Viking has a well oiled machine. Food ...
I was fortunate to experience the Grand European Viking Cruise in 2017 and loved the entire experience. I wanted to take another Viking cruise and chose the Swiss Alps to Paris as my second cruise. We experienced beautiful scenery in Switzerland, Germany, Luxembourg and France. Switzerland was our favorite as the entire country was gorgeous. We have beautiful mountains in Montana but the alps are ...
This was a 'bucket list' cruise which did not disappoint. We had sailed with Viking in China (5 stars) and this could not compare with that experience. That said, it delivered on all of its promises, with the exception of the hotel accomodation before and after.
The experience on the ship was excellent, made better by the seamless planning and execution of the outstanding staff on board. By the ...
My BF and I did this at the last minute because the price was right. The cruise started with 2 nights in Zurich. We were transferred to Basel on June 24 and boarded the ship. I admit my experience was influenced by the record heat wave coinciding with the cruise. However, the most disappointing aspect of the experience was the food. I expected some gourmet meals and there were none. The ...
My sister & I chose the Viking Swiss Alps to Paris Cruise to celebrate her retirement & my 60th Birthday. We felt that a river cruise would be a great way to experience Europe. The Hild was a beautiful ship to cruise on. The service was exceptional & we so enjoyed being greeted by name everyday. Our crew were so helpful & accommodating with everything from housekeeping to travel arrangements. ...
This was my dream vacation and it surely did not disappoint.
Viking really knows how to take care of their quests. It will be hard to cruise with any other cruise lines.
I thought the price was pretty good. It included airfare, pre and post cruise package, drink, package, and an excursion at every port.
We did sign up for a couple other excursions while we were on the cruise but after ...
We had always wanted to go to Europe and thought this a perfect way to see and learn as much as possible in the time we had.
Our cabin was ample for the time we spent in it and the crew could not have been more accommodating or pleasant. The rooms were always clean and all we had to do was ask if we needed something. In every aspect, the crew was FABULOUS! This included the time we spent on ...
I wanted to see the German cities along the Rhine. The views of castles and vineyards were spectacular. The ship moves silently along the river.
We felt pampered the whole way by the attentiveness of the crew and their efforts to fulfill their customers' wishes. Disembarking for shore trips was well managed, dividing the shipful of guests up into manageable groups for the tours. The shore ...
