Cruise was good overall, but too many people on board, on buses, and on land tours made us feel "herded" around like one of the masses, rather than like visitors on a first class tour.

- We loved this experience and will definitely vacation with Viking again. - We felt the handling of the Covid restrictions were necessary to make all passengers feel safe, and were handled very professionally! - Viking employees were wonderful! From the pick-up at the airport in Prague to the drop-off in Budapest everyone was friendly, efficient, and treated each of their guests with respect and top-notch service! - All tours were lead by guides who made all the sites visited that much more interesting with their knowledge and presentation! - Special mention to Adrian and Connie on the Pre-excisions, Klaus, Alex, Ryan, Rolly, Gilbert, Yuri and Jasmina on the Var. they gave us amazing service!!

We have had French chefs, Japanese chefs, Filipino chefs, can we try an American chef? Budapest by night, the Narrows, the Prague extension were great! The quality of the crew cleaning your cabin and waiting your table is the best. The guides are terrific. Punctuality is appreciated. And a good time was had by all.
