From staff to tour guides, our second Danube River cruise with Viking was extra special! Would like to thank Violeta, Katie, Ryan, Rene, Dave, Viorel, Drago, Valentin for their superior service during the week to make our whole group of 15 feel pampered and special! We made great memories before and during the trip!

Pros: Excellent staff, service and tours

Cons: Lost tv for two days

This trip far exceeded my expectations. The staff was wonderful, the excursions were well organized, and the rooms were very nice. The cruise director, Violeta managed everything so well -- even when there was a change in plans due to circumstances out of her control, she was able to make the changes in our schedule seamless.

Pros: Friendly staff; Well organized excursions; the meals were excellent.

Cons: Cost of laundry

We were first time river cruisers and this trip exceeded our expectations. The staff was wonderful, went out of their way to meet our wants and needs. Our accommodations were first class and very comfortable. The food was great and offered a good variety especially the daily regional offerings. The included excursions were well organized and informative. I would highly recommend and we'll surely be repeat cruisers!

Pros: Clean ship, efficient friendly staff, well organized excursions
