River Cruises - All Cruise Reviews

Excellent cruise experience! I loved my Viking River Cruise experience and want to travel on one again. Although I was not the average age demographic of guest (I am in my 30s, most guests are 40+) I had a wonderful time with my family and made new friends. For a bit of travel advice, I would not travel on Easter weekend to Europe again because unlike in America where our Easter holiday is typically 1-2 days off, Easter is the largest holiday across the board in all the countries visited. (Starting on Good Friday through Monday and in some places, Tuesday) It was disappointing to spend a huge amount on a travel (and a 3 year reschedule) to not get to experience more local shops, cafes and museums because the majority were closed. However, this did not hinder my travel experience by much, as it was wonderful to take long walks around the beautiful cities and experience a different part of the world. The tours and excursions were excellent and I learned a lot. This will not be my last Viking River Cruise.

Very relaxing, enjoyable, loved the excursions. Staff excellent, food and wine excellent.

Great cruise great service would recommend to all flower lovers

Fabulous trip despite getting sick and missing 4 days. Would like to have more information on each day. Things like when docking, when leaving port. Hard to plan without that info. Made plans for Easter church in Nuremberg but we weren't in port yet. Would have been nice to know that. Food and staffing were impeccable.

Needs to be a bigger variety of excursions. Some ports you had no options. Did the Hamburg extension. Very disappointing. Train ride from Berlin was nice as was the tour, but everything was on day 1. Day 2 you were left on your own. Supposed to have 2 breakfasts, only had one. Viking schedules early flights and you are unable to have a breakfast on the last day. Excursions should be on day 2. Too much all in one day.

This cruise was very nice but not the top of the line as advertised. We cruised the Rhine previously and that would rate above this one.

This was The ship’s maiden voyage. Staff has a few items to work out. Rooms were tiny. Service was overall good. Normandy lunch restaurant was below Viking standards-a box lunch would be preferred or rotate the groups in a smaller better restaurant.

This was a very good cruise. The staff and crew were great! The excursions are very good. The ship was very nice although some of the rooms are really small. The public spaces are very nice and well appointed. We would certainly sail with Viking again, but I'd probably book a larger stateroom.

Everything about Viking cruises is well thought out. Service is their top priority and this includes their tours. Viking always delivers.

It is hard to express our gratitude for the incredible effort that the entire staff of the Ingvi extended to all of the passengers. Communication and professionalism never wavered and the challenges on this sailing were continuous. We appreciate the service attitude of all crew members, not just in the service areas. THANK YOU!

This was our 4th Viking Cruise. We obviously think highly of them. The service and staff are a step above and the ships are beautiful. We were given voucher bonuses for rescheduling after our initial cruise was cancelled due to the pandemic. It was very generous of Viking to do that and it allowed us to take many optional excursions and fly business class. The port cities on this cruise are so beautiful and the Danube/Main/Rhine canal and locks are interesting to experience. We highly recommend this trip.

The cruise was short but pleasant, and at Viking's typical high quality. The excursions to Giverney and the Normandy beaches were highlights on the trip. Viking also was able to get our Covid 19 test results to us promptly. We are planning additional Viking cruises in the Spring of 2022.

Martina was the best Cruise Manager ever. The service was impeccable. Ship was so clean and beautiful.

The cruise was very enjoyable. Unfortunately,when cruising you are dependent upon the moods and conditions of the river.

the staff was excellent serves was excellent our cruise manager Martina was so helpful and caring she was superb!!!!

Wonderful experiences, great tours, and was treated like VIP guests! Martina rocked!

Wonderful vacation. Food was great. Hotels were clean and upscale. My favorite part of the trip was the Delfin III. Loved the jungle expeditions and excursions.

I thoroughly enjoyed getting back to traveling. It was a great trip. I felt safe with the COVID protocols that were in place on the trip.

Great boat, crew, and itinerary. Food is just ok. The chef needs to get creative.

Words and pictures will never do this cruise justice. It is our 7th Viking cruise and the best ever. Experiencing a culture that is 20000-5000 years old was just amazing. We took the Israel pre-excursion to Jerusalem and Bethlehem which was also outstanding. All our guides were absolutely the best. It is going to take some time to actually process all that we saw and experienced. It was truly a trip of a lifetime. For those concerned about security in Egypt, it was not a concern. On several occasions we had police escorts and we had armed guards with us all the time. Egypt takes tourist security very seriously.
