Viking Hemming and the River Douro

[Solent Richard]

My wife and I have recently returned from an excellent cruise on Viking's latest Longship, Viking Hemming.



This was our third Viking River cruise and they certainly lived up to their reputation for quality and value for money. The included excursions were all outstanding, indeed some surpassed expectations: particularly those that involved dining away from the ship.

A full review with many full sized photographs can be read on my blog page...

July was a particularly good time to do this river cruise, the colours and scenery were magnificent.

Thank you Seabird. Time is getting close.

I sincerely hope when you are captivated by the Douro and Viking you won't change your name to 'Riverbed'.
