Review summary

We enjoyed this cruise but would not do another one. Just not enough to see and do, especially in the evening.

We stayed in Budapest 2 days prior to the cruise, using Viking's accommodations. It was lovely and Viking was there every step of the way.e

Cabin / Stateroom

Very small room and bathroom. We had a balcony but other Viking ships were often docked right up next to us so the balcony was unusable.

There is not much to do at night.
