Viking Modi - June 19 - July 3, 2023

June

Pros: The Ship was very clean and comfortable. The wait staff and Room Steward were absolutely incredible!

Cons: The TV in our room malfunctioned the entire time and numerous requests to have it fixed seemed to be ignored. One of our tours was cut short even though the ship moved to the start and end point for this optional excursion a few hours later. No compensation provided for this trip.

Recommended: Yes

One of the biggest disappointments is that this tour ends in Amsterdam; however, the only way to actually visit Amsterdam is to extend the trip. Several other passengers expressed the same sentiment. With regard to the TV, several presentations from the Lounge were supposedly available for viewing in the Stateroom. The quality of the audio was poor and we could not understand what was being said. Furthermore, when attempting to watch movies, the volume had to be at 100% to barely hear the movies. As we were ill halfway through the trip, our time in the stateroom was less than desirable. Nevertheless, our Room Steward, Jovana, was outstanding, as were Marlin & Roger in the restaurant who helped us get meals during our illness and were extremely accommodating at all other times.

Very nice cruise

June

Pros: Staff and crew, fellow travelers, food

Cons: Short time in some ports due to lock traffic and water levels

Recommended: Yes

First time we have been able to enjoy our veranda. We were lucky with almost no rain and great temperatures. Some guests were disappointed with some of the optional tours. We just did the included ones. Guides were quite good. There was always a leisure group with an easier slower pace. Cabins are well organized but not spacious. Fellow guests can make or break a trip. Viking attracts passengers that are usually a very pleasant group to travel with. This is a great trip for first time travelers to Europe or first time river cruisers. We had traveled Viking several times pre COVID and had noticed a decrease in quality. Quality was back to what we expected from Viking. Several passengers that booked directly with Viking and used Viking air did have some problems with flights.

Viking Longship Modi

April

Pros: Friendly staff, excellent excursions, most of those included and extra, wonderful food and service. Sensational cruise director, Wez!!

Cons: Not enough time in some ports; too much time to shop

Recommended: Yes

Would have preferred a choice, instead of shopping possibly touring a museum if available. In Vienna the Lipizzaner extra excursion write-up should make it clear that you will NOT get to take pictures or touch the horses or see them out of their stalls! This was a BIG disappointment, and far below my expectations. If I had known we would only get to see the horses in their stalls resting I would have chosen a different excursion. Touring the tulip gardens in Amsterdam was outstanding!

Not Quite a River Cruise, but Still Fun

October

Pros: Great crew, food, excursions, and fellow cruisers. Due to itinerary changes we got to visit several nice towns in Germany.

Cons: Due to low water levels on the Danube and the Rhine Rivers we spent little time cruising and a lot of time on busses.The first and last nights we slept in hotels rather than on the ship. Mid-cruise we did a ship swap and moved by bus from the Modi to the Skirnin. The original itinerary was changed a lot.

Recommended: Yes

Viking officials knew for months that the water levels were low and they should have given passengers the option of cancelling or rescheduling the cruise. Even with the changes, we did have a nice time, but it was not the river cruise we expected.

Grand European Cruise

September

Pros: All inclusive with daily included shore excursion

Cons: None we can think of

Recommended: Yes

So much good food! Inclusion of beer & wine with every meal was a real bonus for us and meant did not need to have the silver spirits package. The crew as amazing! Very attentive. I was ill and confined to my cabin one day and the maitre'd delivered soup and ginger ale to my stateroom. It was the suggestion of our usual dinner server, Mae, to send the ginger ale. Mae was extremely attentive. On German night, when I could not eat pork due to an allergy, she had the chef prepare a salmon dinner for me which was one of the best meals I had on the entire cruise. Would travel this ship and this crew again. Made some lifelong friends as well.
