Disappointing holiday cruise

Review for a Europe - River Cruise Cruise on Viking Fjorgyn

We chose this cruise for holiday market and seeing the charm of Paris and other towns. It was disappointing as we only visited a couple markets. The optional tours were disappointing except for Normandy. Not sure why Vernon was selected as it was a little bleak. Optional tour sightseeing Paris was a mob scene in the high end shopping district. I would rather have walked thru affordable stores ...

Not a unique Christmas Market voyage

Listed as a Christmas Market cruise docking at places I have visited before, I expected the emphasis to be on the Christmas markets. I expected on board education sessions, at least one, on the long history of the markets and how each one is unique with the same underpinnings. Educational moment on the foods served at the markets would have been appreciated. Biggest disappointment was paying ...

My primary reason for selecting this cruise was to get a French experience, as well as touring the Normandy Landing sites and graves. I had heard great things about Viking Cruises and thought this would be a good opportunity to experience them. First the good - Viking is a premier line, and everything about the ship, food, service, rooms, common places, was top notch. They aim to please ...

The only places we haven't been to in Switzerland were Geneva and Zermatt, so this trip, with it's Alps extension, seemed like a good idea, and we had previously done Bucharest to Budapest, then flew to Paris to take this cruise. Let me begin by saying that the ship's staff was excellent, as they usually are. But every Viking cruise has come with issues, both Ocean and River. And the ship's ...

AHI Charter on Amadeus Diamond - There are better choices for river cruises

I sailed on the Lueftner Amadeus Diamond on the Seine, roundtrip from Paris, departing Wednesday, September 20. This was a full-ship charter by AHI (Alumni Holidays), including a couple dozen guests from Smithsonian Journeys. My second deck cabin with operable window was in the $650pp per day range, cruise-only, so this was not inexpensive. I chatted with the ship’s Travel Director to be sure ...

I had always wanted to visit Normandy . This cruise afforded me the opportunity. Staff was friendly and helpful. Food was a DISAPPOINTMENT. 3 Dinners out of 7 were good. The rest NO. Presentation was lacking. Meals were inconsistent. Part of the enjoyment of traveling is dining. This was not the case on this trip. The Chef's Table dinner experience was very good and the special evening ...

Days were great, nights were boring

All the day trips were fun and amazing. Learned a lot, enjoyed the sights and got my money's worth. The room was very cramped, but manageable. Although the adds go on about a lot of crafts and cooking classes there was only one of each...a glass blower that was more of a sales event and one poorly done cooking demonstration. The crew was fantastic, but in the evenings, other than chatting and ...

After 10 ocean cruises we took our first river cruise and it had its pros and cons. I knew it would be different and low key but I didn't expect this. Embarkation - Went smoothly, no problem getting on board. Internet - Much like other cruises spotty at best Cabin - We had a french balcony and it was much smaller then any balcony cabin I've been in before. ...

We wanted to do a river cruise to Normandy and had booked one in 2020 which, of course, was cancelled. We chose AMADante because the line purports to have a "gentle walkers" option and the friends who we planned to travel with needed it. They ended up not joining us. This was our first river cruise. The ship was about 1/2 full, around 75 passengers. Most of the passengers were American with ...
