Disappointing - not worth the thousands spent

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Sigrun

What a major disappointment and complete waste of the thousands of dollars spent on this trip. My travel companions and I are experienced cruise travelers and will never travel Viking again. The problems began several days before our sailing date, when Viking announced there would be a change in our ship without explaining the details why. Which means Viking was already aware the Rhine ...

Cruiser who got COVID
2-5 Cruises • Age 70s

I was shocked when many of the people cruising were coughing and staying in their staterooms, the staff of the ship did nothing to investigate or limit the transmission of COVID to other passengers. My wife and I tried to stay distanced from those who were symptomatic. But when I became ill on day 8 and tested positive for COVID, I asked what the company policy was for COVID. I was told by the ...

My wife and I felt this cruise was a perfect way to explore our home islands, have a complete rest. good food and to meet some interesting company. We had some some nice days ashore, the food was excellent if somewhat over salted. The Cabin was pleasant with a lovely big window. (We were on Deck 6) But my wife have to give this Cruise 2 out of 5 because of several factors. 1. Excessive ...

The ports of call and countries are what attracted us to this cruise. This was our fifth cruise on Celebrity. Unfortunately, it was NOT the Celebrity Cruise Line that we remember. Here are some of the positives, and sadly many negatives: Celebrity Apex is a beautiful ship. The artwork, design, color schemes all lovely. Entertainment was very good. La Petit Chef, and Fine Cut were ...

Been on many Viking river cruises and things have gone down such as food. Just disappointed also with some of the behaviors of passengers. Not your typical river cruise. It just has changed from even 2019. Maybe cutting corners after Covid. Crew was great as always. Some of the regular excursions such as Heidelberg are know paid excursions. Jeans t shirts and flip flops in dining room which was ...

In a word - disappointing!

Scenic provide good value if you are looking for average and you’re travelling on a budget. If you’re looking for quality and pay for a premium- it’s disappointing. The notion of quality premium wines is a joke. As for food - it was mixed - we had to jump on the Scenic Ruby after flooding on the Danube and their food was excellent. The food on the Scenic Crystal was not good - 5 meals were ...

Viking River Cruise / Hervor Amsterdam to Basal July /August 2023 We chose a small quaint River cruise as we were under the impression it would be elegant and service +. Thus would be “ Our trip of a lifetime’ We saved for so long to go on something like this!! We all paid for the French Balcony rooms. We received just the opposite. We went with 2 other couples and we all felt we ...

6-10 Cruises • Age 60s

We chose Scenic as we had not travelled with them before and we had heard great reviews from previous travellers. Food and staff on the Ruby were excellent. We missed specialist dining in designated restaurant - seems to have been cut out. Lack of entertainment in evenings was very disappointing. There was a piano on the ship, it was never played. No library or games area for wet day ...

Let me give the positives first 1. ship is old and beautifully maintained 2. Our deluxe balcony suite was comfortable and spotless. Plenty of closet and drawers, safe and small refrigerator which was stocked with beverages and a few snacks. Soaps, and hair products are in large containers. Shower was delightful with multiple shower heads. We enjoyed the balcony chairs. Top deck was ...

The room has strong odor of sewage backup. This would spread of disease. Eventally lots of people were sick. They got diarrhea or coughing. I and my wife got coughing and took 3 weeks to recover. Reported the problem but had a bit improvment only. The bath room ventilation fan didn't run. We were told to change ship due to the low water level. The new ship has simila problem. You can hear water ...
