Romantic Danube

September

Pros: Comfortable stateroom with balcony; attentive housekeeping; great tour director!

Cons: Food, particularly at lunch, was sometimes mediocre and not consistently excellent.

Recommended: Yes

Cruise was good overall, but too many people on board, on buses, and on land tours made us feel "herded" around like one of the masses, rather than like visitors on a first class tour.

Pros: Awesome staff, clean, great layout and never felt crowded

Cons: Noisy room - engine etc. problem with toilet but got fixed fast. Wish they gave us regular water at excursion instead of mineral water

Love our trip! Exceeded our expectations. So much to do and see. Wish a little more evening activity on the boat between 9-10 pm. Otherwise awesome experience all in all

Viking Var -Our First

August

Pros: Everything! I can’t imagine how it could have been better, even with the Covid restrictions!

Cons: Covid, through no fault of Viking! Viking handled Covid restrictions very well.

Recommended: Yes

- We loved this experience and will definitely vacation with Viking again. - We felt the handling of the Covid restrictions were necessary to make all passengers feel safe, and were handled very professionally! - Viking employees were wonderful! From the pick-up at the airport in Prague to the drop-off in Budapest everyone was friendly, efficient, and treated each of their guests with respect and top-notch service! - All tours were lead by guides who made all the sites visited that much more interesting with their knowledge and presentation! - Special mention to Adrian and Connie on the Pre-excisions, Klaus, Alex, Ryan, Rolly, Gilbert, Yuri and Jasmina on the Var. they gave us amazing service!!

The Best Service, The Best Quality

October

Pros: The crew, the equipment

Cons: Non stop!

Recommended: Yes

We have had French chefs, Japanese chefs, Filipino chefs, can we try an American chef? Budapest by night, the Narrows, the Prague extension were great! The quality of the crew cleaning your cabin and waiting your table is the best. The guides are terrific. Punctuality is appreciated. And a good time was had by all.
