Viking River Cruises Reviews

Many wonderful experiences and a chance to meet new people- the excursions were filled with knowledgeable and friendly locals. The crew on board were lovely and attentive.

Loved everyday we were on the cruise. Going to take another one with Viking.

Enjoyable----but not great!

Beautiful ship, outstanding staff, great ours. Everything we wanted!

Staff , Food, Room first class. Tours the best

We thoroughly enjoyed our Paris to Normandy cruise. The staff was great, the food was excellent and the Normandy beaches and American cemetery were everything we hoped they would be! Add in Paris and all the other little towns and it was awesome!

Loved the trip in general. Beautiful landscapes! Two things to note... 1) not much time devoted to just river cruising on this one. The ship mostly moves during the day while passengers are on tour, 2) the Lisbon tours were a lot of driving around and talking about history. The post trip to Santiago and the day trip to Salamanca are outstanding!!!

The ship was great, but the menu was limited. Also where the ship docked made it difficult to go to St Petersburg and Moscow on one's own. Had I known I would have looked at another company.

I loved the Rhine River cruise from Basle to Amsterdam. The itinerary is wonderful. The tours were excellent.

Don't go on the last cruise of the season. Although a bit rainy, the biggest thing was the uncooperative rivers, so ended up being bussed to excursions. Also, because it was the last day of the cruise, they were out of the better wines (and not ordering more). Some lovely people, though - both crew and fellow passengers. Cruise director was condescending at times but thankfully not the entire cruise; other times he was great - could just be the end of the long season. I won't ever go on the last cruise of the season again. Room smaller than on ocean going vessels. However, all in all, the people made the cruise.

Good food. Friendly people.

Loved this trip. Awesome Viking service, plenty of storage and amenities in cabin, beautiful scenery, and fun excursions. We would definitely do another Viking cruise.

Fantastic trip. High standard of service.

They have their act together from meeting you at the airport to including house wines with lunch and dinner.

The crew on the Eir were fantastic. Friendly, and would do anything to make you comfortable and happy. The ship and amenities were everything that you could want.

The Gullveig is a great riverboat. We cruised the Danube River and enjoyed the shore excursions with our friends. The food was typically German fare, and the local beers and wines were enjoyed at lunch and dinner. The concert in Vienna was very exciting, and the orchestra and maestro and dancers gave us great joy. Our stateroom was a nice size, we enjoyed our French Balcony, since the weather was mild we had the sliding door open when we were in our room. The bathroom has a heated floor, and that made shower time cozy and warm.

Our travel experiences have been wonderful.

This is the first voyage with Viking. I don't have any other cruises of this type for a comparison.

Our Viking cruise went beyond our expectations. Food and entertainment on the boat was great, the staff on the ship was helpful and fun, and the outings (which we could participate in or not) were well designed to teach us about the area and offer a good time.
