Viking River Cruises
Unlike the bloated, gimmicky ocean liners that cart hoards of tourists around the Caribbean, river cruises offer a more refined and intimate experience.
And travelers are taking note, as the river cruising industry is booming, with a 10% increase in river cruise passengers in the last 5 years.
Viking River Cruises has carved a niche for itself as the premiere luxury river cruise ship operator.
The cruise company recently unveiled 16 new Longships that travel all over Europe, exploring different cities like Amsterdam, Belgrade, and Budapest on the famous rivers like Rhine and Danube.
On board and off, a trip with Viking River Cruises is a full cultural immersion, with talks and activities that shed light on the destinations, such as cuckoo clock-making, wooden shoe-carving, cooking classes, wine tastings, and dance performances.
