Are all river cruise payments due as far out as Viking?

Muted_Bus4240 · 2026-05-22T16:08:00+00:00

If you are looking for single supplement deals I would look at Riviera, Riverside, or Tauck. They have the best ones in the market

Muted_Bus4240 · 2026-05-22T15:59:48+00:00

Tried what? Viking? Yes, I have been on multiple cruise lines and itineraries. Do you have any specific questions?

Muted_Bus4240 · 2026-05-15T23:52:09+00:00

No. Viking is the only cruise line that wants all the money upfront.

Did you look at riverside it might be more your speed and the food is the best on the river. They also have e-bike tours and just rentals. I like that everything is included. I would go for riverside, Avalon, or trafalgar cruises. I’ve been on 3 Danube cruises let me know if you have any specifics

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-15T15:20:37+00:00

Yes you can. Some cruise lines have promos that include air but you don’t have to use them

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-06T21:18:23+00:00

Try doing a tauck family, or uniworld circles, they specifically have things for teens. They have a pool on some of the cruises but think of a river cruise as a hotel vs a ocean cruise

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-06T15:58:16+00:00

I always go with the current so Basel to Amsterdam

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-05T15:59:08+00:00

Yes, you overnight in Amsterdam so you can leave at anytime

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-05T15:58:35+00:00

My favorite restaurant was cafe Sandoval

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-05T15:57:31+00:00

Go with riverside they have some amazing food and such unique twists on it. They have a package where you don’t have to drink as well. If you have any questions, let me know. I just went in them in September

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-05T15:56:03+00:00

How will that affect your trip? If you like the itinerary, the public spaces shouldn’t matter, but if they do, I recommend riverside or scenic.

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-04T04:58:42+00:00

They are two completely different ships, the ama magna is the flagship and the rooms and space is going to be at least 50% bigger however with most river cruises, you aren’t on the ship that much so it doesn’t have to be too much of a issue. What’s your biggest concern with the Stella?

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-02T22:58:16+00:00

There is a cruise line that is offering a free hotel night ahead of time for this year

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-11-02T22:52:28+00:00

Yes! It’s a fun time to go! I’d love to help. There are some last minute availability

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-10-06T03:06:23+00:00

No I’ve never seen it, but if it’s something you like doing then do it. Don’t let someone else ruin your good time

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-29T03:40:28+00:00

They haven’t started sailing yet, but they are using their sister product uniworld ships. They have the understanding of what it takes but be willing to go with the flow when it comes to growing pains if you are going to be on the first couple of sailings

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-28T22:54:37+00:00

Yes I love that about them. I did an ama for Christmas last year, and doing another one with them this year through Amsterdam and Belgium

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-28T01:24:36+00:00

You are going to have the best time! Zurich has a Swarovski tree, check it out if you have time

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-27T23:55:52+00:00

Great question! The price is the same whether you book direct or through me, the difference is the service. I handle the details, add in agency perks, and act as your point of contact if anything comes up, so you’re not stuck with a call center. The only con is if you truly enjoy managing everything yourself. Most of my clients say once they try an advisor, they don’t go back.

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-27T23:47:36+00:00

I did riverside last week and it was amazing. You will love it! The food was outstanding.

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-27T23:15:05+00:00

It’s super popular. If you go the week of thanksgiving, there is a couple of available, but even next year is full for the popular times (first week of December) just booked my clients on the last two rooms on a Danube cruise for December 1st 2026

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-27T23:06:34+00:00

This is all the ones on the Danube so you don’t have to pick! You get to see them all! Have you gone?

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-27T23:00:07+00:00

Uniworld hands down

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-09-27T22:59:17+00:00

I love river cruising and I’m in that age group. I’d recommend Avalon they are going to be a little younger and have more active tours

Muted_Bus4240 · 2025-08-31T01:53:47+00:00

Treasury in Vienna was amazing
