Very good with one big exception

October

Pros: Great staff and food. Their staff at airport pickup and drop off were superb. The program director and most of the shore excursion guides were great.

Cons: Tips are not included. Stateroom was tiny. They served the same mediocre wines every night. The Wif-Fi network is not secure. Docking locations were far from Paris and not in Paris as was advertised. Excursions are too long for elderly guests.

Recommended: No

I am somewhat disappointed with Viking. Most of my complaints are minor. However my biggest complaint was that they advertise a stay on the boat in Paris on the first and last nights. The boat was NOT in Paris. It was in a suburb resulting in a bus ride of anywhere from 30 minutes to as long as 2 hours. This is not good. Added to shore excursions that were too long made for an exhausting and not relaxing vacation. Shuttle buses to and from Paris were only pick up and drop off separated by six to eight hours. Thus on our own on day one we chose to pay for a cab to return to the boat early. I don't care if they charge more for the cruise.They absolutely need to dock closer to the city. The promotional information is therefore misleading.

Paris to Normandy

September

Pros: staff

Cons: some of the dinner choices, sketchy WiFi at times

Recommended: Yes

Overall the cruise was very nice. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. I think the rooms are a little small, but were satisfactory . I will more than likely take another Viking cruise, because it is a great way to see Europe.

Viking Longship Rhinda

April

Pros: All of the staff was the BEST.

Cons: None

Recommended: Yes

This was my favorite of all the river trips I have taken. Of course the places visited were very special to me in many ways. The ship and crew left nothing to be desired.
