My wife and I just returned home from doing the Viking Danube Waltz cruise - eight days from Budapest to Passau. We spent extra time in both Budapest and Prague, both great cities, but loved Prague more.

Pic of Budapest as we departed:



You are really pampered on board - great meals and shore excursions. Met many fine people - just see a couple by themselves at a table for four and join them.

Some friends who took the same cruise a week after us reported that water levels were so low around Budapest they had to be bussed about four hours to their ship.

Two days after returning home we booked a 2023 Viking Rhine River Cruise.

We've done 4 cruises with Viking (3 river / 1 ocean) including that one. Can't say enough good things. Posted several threads on the topic.

Definitely build pre / post trips. Once you're there, it's fairly cheap. Prague in particular. We "added on" for our trip down the Elbe in December. Magical time. Some photos:

We're doing the Viking Seine River tour in November and Portugal in May next year.

Highly recommend obviously. Be aware that the "age demographic" might turn some off. It'll be generally a mid 50's / 60's crowd, with outliers on either side. Don't let that turn you off. These are people that have worked their whole lives for these kinds of trips and they're livin' life! Can be very fun to hang with!
