Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm Carol Shadex with Imagine Going There Travel, and we are your Viking Master Cruise Experts.

This is a 12-day tour from Paris to Prague or the reverse, and we're going to go through it day by day so you can see if this might be the next best fit for your Viking bucket list.

I love this river. It's, as you can see, it's very narrow, windy. It's um sharp, steep cliffs, known for its reasonlings.

We're going to talk about the stateaterooms. This is the standard stateateroom. It is um 150 square ft. It has a high fixed window and I am 5'7 so it comes about to my chin.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Extend your trip with extra nights in Paris or Prague to see more.
Take a picture of the mile markers along the Rhine to identify castles.
Book the Marxburg Castle tour if you can, as it's an incredible castle.
Choose a veranda suite for the best experience, as they are the most popular.
