This was my first Viking Cruise. I heard nothing but great reviews from friends who have cruised before. My Viking Represenative, Lisa Chase, wlked us through every step. She was in constant contact with us, handling every question and concern we might have had. She even checked to that if we were planning another curise after we return we needed to get our passport renewed.There is nothing

This is definitely the best way to see several cities in a shorter period of time (without packing and unpacking). I personally would prefer to spend more time exploring each port on my own in order to get a feel for each town. The servers and cabin attendants were fantastic. One HUGE negative was the total miscommunication of where the ship was docked for embarkation. That really put a negative

This was our first river cruise and first cruise with Viking. We were impressed with the staff, service, itinerary, guides, and food service. The staff was friendly, professional, and attentive without being overbearing. Chris Smith, our program director, was excellent in providing updates, changes, and daily schedules. Transportation to and from the airport was efficient and timely making the

Fantastic service by the crew. The food was phenomenal. Cruise Director Andy was so instrumental in guiding us through the daily activities.

Was such a great experience that I just hope most people can have the same opportunity to experience once in a lifetime. I would like to personally thank Elizabeth and our waiter Stelian! Doesn’t get any better! Viking does such a wonderful job keeping you entertained with a ton of fun expeditions. Dining is fantastic with food from the regions that you are currently visiting. Cabins are very

This trip was our first to Europe, but also our honeymoon. What a great way to see so many cities while being completely comfortable and not sitting in a car for hours. The boat was beautiful and clean with lots of open spaces. The staff always wore a smile and were happy to help. The meals were delicious. The program director did an amazing job ensuring everything went off without a hitch

This was my first cruise of any kind and I was skeptical that I would enjoy it.

Our first cruise and it was beyond our expectations. Service from Viking from home to home again was attentive to the last detail. The ship was just the right size, the food and drink were both magnificent, the crew was friendly and helpful (as well as personable), and the excursions were delightful. They did a special thing for us at Normandy Beach American cemetery, holding a solemn memorial

The Program Director Jamie was absolutely fabulous, he made the cruise so much fun. The food was very good, the servers Galina and Dennis were so attentive to us at meal times. Our Cabin host Lorenzo really did a great job. Looking to go on a Viking Ocean Cruise next year. The tours were for the most part really good, however the last tour took us over 9 hours to get to Paris via bus with two
