Comments By Bonnie
Because this is a river cruise there is very little entertainment brought onto the ship so after dinner there was only the lounge to go sit in and listen to music which he was there every night - a piano/organ player. I would never recommend someone stay on the lower deck of these river cruises as you don't get a view of where you are going and less light coming into the rooms, we found the room, because it is underwater except for the window and up, was always damp feeling which we mentioned to Viking Cruise in our last day survey. The itinerary was excellent and the stops were great. I would recommend staying in hotels at both ends of the cruise but we booked ourselves and it was much cheaper. Getting around on trams, trains, busses is very easy and inexpensive so you don't have to taxi. The staff were all excellent and very helpful. Because the ships are so small there is not little public area on the ships besides the lounge, a small area for cards that can seat 12 people and another area at reception where maybe 16 people can sit.
