Danube's Fabled Waters

Norse Heritage

Jarl is a noble Norse warrior renowned for his strength and intelligence. He is the son of Heimdal who, in many stories, is the grandson of Odin, father of the gods. According to Norse legend, Heimdal disguised himself as a human named Rig, and leaves his post at the gateway to Asgard, where he is guarding the gods, to travel the earth where he fathered three children: Thrall (serf), Karl (freeman) and Jarl (earl). Jarl enhanced his noble status by marrying Erna, the beautiful daughter of the nobleman Hersis. As a noble earl with his own hall, Jarl, gathered a loyal following. Like all aristocrats in Viking society, Jarl served under the king, training warriors and overseeing vast estates.

Great Experience

| Budapest, Vienna, Krems, Passau, Regensburg and Nuremburg
I'm being picky about the shower stall, a small inconvenience considering everything else was "Top of the Line"! Regional dinner meals were outstanding, especially the soups. The staff were always accommodating, friendly and fun. The included tours were more than we expected - educational, well-managed and tour guides were exceptional. The Danube is truly a beautiful river with excellent port visits (Regensburg was our favorite surprise!). We did have to change ships due to the river level and Viking managed it almost seamlessly. Yes, we had to pack and unpack and rise an hour earlier, but by the end of day it was a non-event. Well done!

Ryan Anniversary Trip

| Germany - Austria - Hungary
This was our second Viking river cruise. The food and service was excellent. All the tour guides were very knowledgeable. There was something for everyone's interests. Would highly recommend Viking for anyone interested in river cruising.

Don and Loretta sail away in Europe

| Budapest, Vienna, Salzburg, and Germany
This was a great trip. We met a lot of really nice people, and had a great time. The program director (Boris) was a total stitch. It was interesting to watch the ship sail through the various locks on the Danube. We didn't get a chance to shop a lot in Budapest or Salzburg due to the fact that the days we were there were national holidays in the respective countries and the shops were closed. We had a great time regardless. Very attentive personal service.

Review of Budapest to Regensberg

| Budapest, Krems, Vienna, Passau, Regensberg
Two seatings for dinner would be better than one. Wish there could have been more entertainment in the evening - maybe local people singing folk songs or playing traditional music Would have liked more lectures about the areas we visited
