First Riverboat Cruise

SEPTEMBER

Star Star Star Star Star

PROS

Fantastic service, great food, and nice tours.

CONS

Long flight and time difference

RECOMMENDED

Yes

Tours were much too long with too much unnecessary information provided! Would have preferred more personal time on our own to shop and explore. It was very difficult to interpret our tour guides because of strong French accents. The Palace of Versailles was extremely crowded and the tour guide's explanation of each room was much too long, leaving little time or energy left to tour the gardens.

Paris to Normandy aboard Viking Fjorgyn is a must! From the minute we stepped on to on to the Fjorgyn, it was smooth sailing. All of the crew were so welcoming and genuinely made you feel at home. We had daily Covid screenings and every crew member wore masks the entire cruise. Our health and safety were a priority. Brenton was our cruise director and was extremely personable and helpful. He created an atmosphere of warmth amongst the guests. Brenton made our visit to Normandy one of the most memorable and moving experiences of our cruise. He shared a personal memory of his grandfather bringing us all to tears. This is our third Viking River Boat vacation and the first time meeting our cruise director and feeling like you made a friend. This cruise was a perfect re-entry into traveling again.
