First and foremost, we picked this cruise because of our past experience with Viking on the Grand European cruise. Secondly, we picked this cruise because of the countries and cities we would visit; Berlin, Prague and Krakow have been high on our list.
Our expectations, which were set very high by our previous cruise, were met in every way and we have already booked our next cruise for 2018 and have our sites on a number of others.
All three hotels—Berlin (pre-boarding), Prague & Krakow (post-disembark)—were spectacular. They were very well located, so we could make the best of our free time and take in all the sites we had planned to see. The hotel staff, food and the Viking representative did everything they could to make our stay memorable.
