Eir - Valkyrie & Goddess of Healing

The goddess Eir is by many accounts “the best of all physicians.” But scholars differ on the capacity in which she used her power. Some depict her as a goddess of healing, tending to the sick and the war-wounded. Others view her as a horse-riding Valkyrie who rides into battles to decide which soldiers die and which live.

Best vacation ever

| Switzerland, France, Germany, Netherlands - cruise on the Rhine River
Absolutely best trip ever! The staff are over the top when it comes to providing service and anticipating your needs. It is great to wake up to a new port every day and not have to pack/unpack. I highly recommend Viking for anyone planning a River Cruise.

Amazing trip

| Rhine River Cruise
Since I have come home two days ago I have praised the cruise that we had with Viking. I would love to take another trip with them. On second thought...filling this form out is not fun. I have put in the month three times and it keeps asking for it again.
