If you love wine, chateaus, and France country side this cruise is perfect. We loved the whole experience, food, wine, scenery, relaxed time, shopping etc.
This is our fifth Viking cruise, we have always had an excellent experience. The crew couldn't be nicer, more helpful and cheerful. As it has always been on each cruise. I might say, our cruise director on this cruise was really the best. You could see how he enjoyed his job. He was very knowledgable. The ship was spotlessly clean, cabin was comfortable, our meals were excellent, the tours were educational and enjoyable. The wine served at each chateau was of a high grade, and each tour we took we learned more.
All in all we were quite pleased. At our Travel Club meeting which was a week after we got back, Viking Cruises were presenting. We told everyone how much we had enjoyed this cruise.
Our cabin was comfortable, enough room, clean, and always kept that way. We had the balcony but not being able to go out. With the weather and time of cruise this was perfect. Having a balcony to sit on is for when we chose a warmer time. We love that we can use the wi if in our cabin, even though that didn't work out too well this time. Not the ship's fault.
Loved the warm bathroom floors. We were satisfied with our cabin.
