Best cruise ever. Been on about ten ocean cruises; this was first river cruise. Ship was immaculate, food was wonderful. Great value for the price. Shore excursion guides were experts on their country and answered all questions. The staff on the ship did not act nice, they were born nice! Best customer service of any vacation. They truly cared that you were happy and took the time to be ...
We had taken a Viking cruise the year before to the South of France and enjoyed it very much. We thought this one sounded like another good choice. We talked good friends into going with us on the second one. It was all wonderful. The room service staff went out of their way to not be in our way while doing the rooms. The dining staff were exceptional, friendly, efficient and delightful. The ...
We sailed on the Njord this year--Romantic Danube. Our first Viking cruise was on Alsvin in 2015, the Tulips/Windmill cruise. We loved it so much that we returned this year with another couple. We'd like to make this an annual trip.
We are very impressed with the accommodations, service and type of tours offered.
Food was spectacular. Loved the little portions--never still hungry when we ...
We chose this cruise to see Vienna. Unfortunately we were disappointed in the time spent there. Not enough time in Vienna. By the time we toured the church we did not have time to enjoy coffee and pastry. Needed another day at least in Vienna.
The ship and personnel were absolutely wonderful. Food was great. We cannot say enough about the crew. They provided anything you wanted and with a ...
It was a very relaxing and enjoyable cruise. Viking River Cruises was superb in every way. The ship was very clean and comfortable, food was great, entertainment and activities on and off the ship were well planned and very entertaining. The guides were very informative and knowledgeable. The ports and shore excursions were all worthwhile and well organized.
But above all the crew was the ...
We wanted to see Budapest and Vienna. The weather was perfect. I was particularly impressed with Cesky Krumlov, the castle was such an impressive sight. We went on several of the extra excursions and found everyone worth the time and price. We really liked the winery tour and enjoyed their wine all through the trip. The Heurigen evening was a little bit relaxed and fun--though I did not enjoy ...
We had taken a couple of ocean cruises and just hated them, but our friends convinced us that a Viking River Cruise was different. They ships were smaller, they said, with far fewer passengers. The food was excellent, the wine was endless, the accommodations were spacious, and the crew was uncompromisingly attentive. They were right. We took a cruise called the Danube Waltz from Passau, Germany to ...
Just returned from our first cruise of any type, a river cruise onboard the Viking Njord. We took the Danube Waltz which started in Passau and ended in Budapest. Having been to Europe only one other time back in the early 80's and having a husband that had never been we were excited about the trip, the countries we would visit (Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungry) and the tours that were ...
Our cruise was everything we'd hoped for and then some. We traveled with friends but made new ones each night at dinner. The excursions were well organized and perfectly timed making good use of every moment. The meals were excellent and the service impeccable. Having only ocean cruises in large ships to compare this to I was pleasantly surprised by being able to leave the ship in the afternoon or ...
We booked this trip to include the round trip airfare, the Pre-Cruise package in Prague, the cruise from Passau to Budapest, and the Post-Cruise package in Budapest. This was our second Viking trip in twelve months and was even better than the first.
We were upgraded from our Veranda cabin to one of the two Explorer Suites - WOW! The accommodations were spacious and luxurious.
