We had never done a river cruise only ocean cruising. Enjoyed the smaller numbers and the personalized service. Our trip was well organized and the tour guides were excellent. Wish we had booked time in Europe before and after the cruise. Embarkation and disembarkation was terrific. There is minimal entertainment, but that was OK as it was mostly people over 50 on the trip who were pretty tired and in bed early. Love to do another cruise. Other river cruises had headsets that the passengers could wear all the time they were cruising so that when they passed places of interest, they knew about it. Viking didn't offer that :(

I don't think that young children would enjoy the cruise. It is mostly older people and there wouldn't be much for them to do. The food would have been too sophisticated for them as well. (Although, I don't know if there was a children's menu).

We were given the incorrect time by the tour guide to return to the ship on one excursion. She did correct herself during her talk (so I am told) however, I did slip away to the rest room so I suppose I missed the correction. Unfortunately, we were late getting back to the ship so they had to leave without us. They were very gracious though (as it was their error) and met us later on down the river.
