Creator's Key Takeaways

I recently completed a Ry getaway river cruise on the Viking inar it was supposed to be on the Viking seum but the boat was changed at the last minute

the room I stayed in was a French balcony room it is called a French balcony because it only has a narrow railing with a sliding glass door

my only complaint was that the bed was extremely hard I asked if they had any additional padding and they put the same quilt that was on top top of the bed under the sheet which wasn't a great solution

the boat is divided into four decks I'll start on the main or bottom deck and move my way up

Creator's Tips & Advice

Arrive early to drop off luggage and explore the departure city
Use a travel adapter for electronics as USB ports are limited
Visit the Sun Deck for the best views, even if it's cold
