Viking Var Cruise Reviews

This is our 1st river cruise and we really enjoyed it. The crews were great, friendly and organized. They were very helpful and always smiling. Viking knows what they are doing. From the time you landed in the airport to start your tour to the time you are ready to fly out after your tour, there’s a Viking representative to help you find your way and to prevent any problems. The tours, ...

The ship’s crew and the tour guides are helpful, friendly courteous and receptive to all your needs. Included tours are great and the phase is relaxed. I just wish a better entertainment after dinner is available not just a piano music but some kind of show like magic, stand up comedy or a singer or dancer (it doesn’t have to be famous). For all day refreshments, sodas like coke or Pepsi should be ...

I will recommend Viking River Cruises to everyone. We were treated like royalty. Viking went above and beyond, as I became quite ill during travel to Budapest. Viking rep Vicktor was our guardian angel, as he called a doctor our first night in the hotel, got my meds, called an ambulance the following morning, sat with us at the hospital for EIGHT hours, and made sure we connected with Mario from ...

Transfers to and from long boat very good. From Munich toRegensburg a little long, most of us taking a well deserved nap. Arriving at the Viking Var and directly escorted to our room which was very nice and clean just a little cramped, but workable. All meals were very good, offering local cuisine and US cuisine. All tours or excursions were very informed with very well informed ...

Viking knocks it out of the ballpark again! This is our second river cruise with Viking and we will go again! They take care of all the details and never leave you wondering or wandering on your own, feeling lost. Even if you choose to go out on your own, they kindly give you all the info you need to get around and back to the ship on time. In Vienna, our cruise director led a group to the ...

My brother-in-law turned 60 September 25th so we chose this cruise on these dates so we could tie in Oktoberfest to the end of our cruise. Thought this was my husband's and my 3rd cruise, it was the first for my sister and brother -in-law. The cruise was perfect in every way! The service is 5 star! It just amazes me that the crew remembers not only your name but what you drink. Each evening, ...

The Viking Var staff were so helpful and professional. The pre-cruise extension in Prague was spectacular and the Marriott Prague was in the middle of all the action and within walking distance to everything. The local tour guides partnering with Viking are so well-versed in the history of their local towns and more. Excursions were very well organized and included music performances were ...

We recently did our first river cruise (Romantic Danube) on the Viking Var that sailed from Budapest to Regensburg. We also took advantage of the 2 day pre-arrival stay in Budapest. From the minute Viking met us at the airport to when we disembarked in Regensburg we were so impressed with how smoothly everything ran. On board we had the BEST cruise director, Benne. She was upbeat and cheerful ...

My wife and I wanted to experience our first river cruise together, so we selected Viking, strongly suggested by our travel agent. The Romantic Danube cruise took us from Hungary to Germany offering many historic venues. The pros: Superb on board service. Excellent food preparation and selection. The cons: #1 - Apparently because of limited docking space, Viking needs to dock ...

We decided to take advantage of the 25th Anniversary special and extend in Budapest so we would be there for our 45th Anniversary. The trip itself was great with enjoyable and informative included tours. Regensburg and Passau were living history sites. Tip #1Grab a Viking Umbrella if rain is coming-we had quite a bit those 2 days. Tip2 sign up for the micro brewery tour in Regensburg- lots of ...
