This was our fourth river cruise and fifth cruise overall with Viking. Although we had a couple difficult nights at first with the air conditioning in our stateroom, the crew on this trip has been the best we have dealt with of all our Viking cruises. We took the Rhine cruise last year starting in Amsterdam and terminating in Basel. That cruise was probably our least favorite due to the low ...
This was our fourth Viking cruise. As all the outers have been, everything was perfect except for light rain one day (can't have sunshine all days). This area from Budapest to Bucharest is stunning. The included tours were wonderfun, informative and the people were very friendly. Except for an occational group of school children on a day outing, there were no crouds. Prices in souviner shops, ...
Visiting Eastern Europe and Germany was a bucket list vacation for my husband and I.
The entire 23 day experience was amazing. The cuisine on board was top notch which often featured local dishes where we visited that day.
Tours were led by informative tour guides. Quiet boxes were provided to each guest daily which proved very useful in a noisy tour setting.
We enjoyed various kinds ...
This was my 6th cruise with Viking. Needless to say, I'm hooked. I absolutely loved the Delling!! When Michael Bright greeted me as I boarded the ship, I knew I would have a great cruise. Michael was the cruise director on a previous Paris to Normandy trip I had been on and it was fabulous!! Needless to say, he made this trip unforgettable. I was amazed to see how different southern France ...
I chose Viking because of the 2-room veranda suite. I compared the suites from all other river cruise lines and Viking had everything I wanted: my own personal veranda, spacious rooms, wonderful shower. It was my first river cruise and I enjoyed everything that Viking could provide. It was my first trip to France so I didn't know what to expect in terms of the river vistas, which were a bit ...
Wanted a quiet relaxing experience, but not boring. the ship, crew, food, programs made it entertaining and stimulating while the scenery relaxed you and the sites immersed you and taught you history. Overall a well rounded experience. Everything went smoothly and appreciated the staff caring for one guest at a time, even in the group excursions. The facilities were comfortable and cruising was ...
Provence and the Rhône—a feast for all your senses! The food, the wine, the art, the scenery—nothing disappointed. The crew of the Delling went above and beyond. Drinks were created and made to order. The food was all in keeping with the flavors of Provence. Every dinner (except for the first night) was enjoyed on the Aquavit Terrace—there is nothing better than al fresco dining with new friends ...
highly recommended by others and was a part of France we wanted to get to know and the Viking experience satisfied and exceeded all expectations.
the tours at all stops were well guided by folks who knew all the subject matter and sufficient time was provided to get a rich experience on each tour.
would rate the staff as exceptional on this cruise and found them all extremely helpful and ...
The staff and the ship were wonderful. So clean and bright. The staff helpful and cheerful did everything to make it a memorable and relaxing trip. The food was well thought out and delicious. The excursions, on and off the ship went seamlessly. No hiccups. They seem to have planned everything so it would be so. The extra trips we paid for were well worth the money and again well planned and ...
I have been suggesting this particular river cruise on the Rhone for the last couple of years and my wife surprised me for our anniversary and my birthday to gift this to me.
Since I am a culinarian/foodie, I believed this was one of the best opportunities to cover a lot of ground in a short week, and we did. Three of our excursions were to different wine regions with the first being in ...
