Viking River Cruises.
Imagine wandering the halls of the Hermitage Museum in Russia's
St Petersburg; sampling fine wines in colourful Beaune, centre of
the French Burgundy wine industry; stroll through the courtyards of
the Forbidden City in Beijing, or witness the incredible dexterity
of a Chinese ceramics master crafting fine porcelain wares. With
Viking River Cruises, the excursions are designed to bring you close
to the culture, people and history of the destinations you visit.
Almost all your excursions are included in your cruise cost,
providing you with great value and an incredibly rich experience.
Unfortunately we don't have time here to cover Viking River Cruises
in the depth that they deserve, with 21 ships offering the discovery
of places and cultures along the rivers of Europe, Russia and China.
With Viking, you visit cosmopolitan cities plus small villages
inaccessible by an ocean cruise. Enjoy "walk off the ship" access -
all from the comfort of a deluxe ship. A sample of the new options
for 2008 are below but for the full details on all the cruises,
itineraries and prices please contact us. |
