After seeing the ads on Masterpiece Theater, we started investigating the trip destinations and cost. Friends had taken a cruise the year before on the Danube and we decided to try that one first. Since this would be our first trip to Europe, we wanted it to be special and memorable, and it was! My husband and I told our friends and family that this was a once in a lifetime trip. We LOVED the ship, the service, the people both working on the ship and the guests aboard. We had an unbelievable time and hope to do another Viking River Cruise in the future. Our favorite city was Prague where we spent our first three days before departing for the ship. On board, we enjoy exquisite meals and remarkable service. The staff was caring and attentive to all our needs. Now we are telling our friends and family that this is the first of our Viking trips!
