We have been on 7 or 8 other Viking River cruises, but no one on the Elbe. It was a delightful cruise with one of you most outstanding Program Directors; Daniela Ebert. She made the trip extra special. Soft spoken, intelligent and very accommodating. She stayed with us from Berlin to Prague where we were joined by another excellent Program Director - Janna? The ship's crew were also very accommodating as well. They couldn't do enough for you soon enough. Our cabin steward Dennise was without a doubt one of the best ever. Having said that, we have never had a sub-standard one on Viking. The food on the ship was excellent as well. The chef was on of the finest we've ever met and his selections were varied and delicious. We also enjoyed the entertainment (one of the best piano players we.ve ever heard anywhere - Andre?) and the shore excursions. We enjoyed everyone we took part in. We really enjoyed our visit to Prague again and the Hilton Hotel which is near one of our favorite eating establishments, the Imperial Hotel. The trip to Poland was very enjoyable as well. We had never been there and enjoyed the scenery, tours of various landmarks and sites as well as the friendliness of the Polish people. It was a very enjoyable experience.
