This was a very stress free tour. We were in good hands from the time we were met at the airport to the time we were accompanied back to the airport after the cruise was over. The tours were very organized and they kept the group small. There was always a local guide and someone from the ship to make sure no one got separated from the group. The wait staff were warm and they always had a smile. They knew our names and how we liked our coffee and what juice we liked starting from the second day. The games were hilarious and the historical presentation were Educational .We especially like the fact that the senior crew members mingled with the passengers . We also liked the meeting your neighbor activity. There was variety of meals to choose from and they were prepared well. We are sold on viking River Cruises.
