Four Reasons to Book a European River journey

A European vacation is good for the soul, offering historic landmarks, world-famous museums, magnificent cathedrals and so much more. With so much to discover, a European river voyage will take you to the heart of great destinations, while only having to unpack once. With longer port calls and Viking’s destination-focused approach, they will maximize your discoveries in Europe. Here are four more reasons to explore Europe in Viking comfort.

1. Unmatched Value

Discover the convenience of unpacking just once and enjoy impeccable service and elegant accommodations as you travel with like-minded guests. Plus, with Viking Inclusive Value, their fares are always all-inclusive with everything you need — and nothing you do not. There is no charge for Wi-Fi or port taxes and fees, plus all onboard meals and one complimentary shore excursion in every port included and so much more.

2. Destination-Focused Itineraries

With prime docking locations along Europe’s great rivers, Viking takes you to the heart of great destinations with itineraries designed to help you explore and engage with your destination through its food, culture, countryside and customs. For example, on Viking’s Grand European Tour, trace the Danube, Main and Rhine Rivers between the landscapes of Hungary and the windmill-dotted waterways of Holland, with engaging encounters and charming towns and villages at every bend. Admire Rhine Valley vistas from a 900-year-old castle, learn the Viennese waltz or sample the food and wine of Austria’s Wachau Valley along the way.

3. Awe-inspiring Views

Europe’s inland waterways are brimming with stunning scenery and old-world treasures. Admire the views from an unparalleled choice of all-outside staterooms, expansive views from floor-to-ceiling windows and the most open seating and al fresco dining on Europe’s waterways, so you always have the option to enjoy a meal or a glass of wine while surrounded by the turreted fortresses and grand cathedrals of the Middle Rhine or the the medieval towns, grand cities and stunning scenery of the Danube.

4. Suite Accommodations

Viking believes in “Exploring the World in Comfort.” That is why their small ships offer a sense of comfort akin to a floating hotel. With light-filled spaces and a quiet, understated elegance, their signature Scandinavian design never upstages the destination. Their innovative ships feature river cruising’s first-ever true two-room suites and all outside staterooms with verandas or French balconies, so you can enjoy the views from the comfort of your room.
