which deck on viking

Recommended Posts

Have not done a river cruise yet, but are booked for late August. Had the same question when we looked for "best cabin". Twp things I discovered that I had not thought about.

1) In a busy port, ship often dock along side each other. As a result your balcony may be only a couple of feet from some one else on a different ship.

2) While cruising sitting on your balcony you are blind to the other side of the river, so being up top, or at least in the lounge may be a better view.

I considered these points, and opted for a lower cat. room (but not water level). Can use the "saved" money for other personal pleasures on the cruise.

Just something for your consideration

On the river cruises, deck isn't all that important. As a general rule, you will spend most of your time walking around, eating dinner, and sleeping. Very little time will be spent gazing out of your stateroom window.

 

Bottom line: Assuming bedding arrangements are the same, any deck is fine!
