I will shortly be leaving on my fourth river cruise with Viking and so far I have nothing but praise for the company, it's staff and the selection of cruises available. As far as value for money is concerned I would say that up until 2014 it was excellent. However, to increase prices at a time when Sterling was appreciating against the Euro and fuel prices were falling, I would say that the last increase was much too high. The new Longships are excellent with the exception of the size of the French window rooms on the middle decks which are smaller than on the older ships. However, all in all we very much enjoy the experience.
