We are doing a pre-excursion in Amsterdam early April and was wondering if the Viking hotel upgrade is worth it as well.

Thanks for everyone’s help. It has been invaluable. I’ll share this with our group of 8!

AMSTERDAM QUESTION: We added the 2 days in Amsterdam on to our Rhine Getaway Cruise (Viking). They offer Ann Frank House & Tulip/Flower tour. Since we will need to adjust our sleeping pattern, shouldn’t we do the Flower tour on our second day (longer and more walking). ALSO, is upgrading to the more expensive hotel worth it? thanks for your suggestions. They have been so helpful!

Oh my gosh, that looks delicious!

Thanks for your suggestions. Good to know about what we could skip and what we could do on our own. We are extending the cruise 2 extra days in Amsterdam, but at the mercy of Viking for picking our hotel. It will be during the Tulip season and would love any restaurant /activity suggestions. Can’t decide if we want to see the Anne Frank House (may be depressing)???

We are 4 60ish yr old active couples going on our 1st cruise. We chose Rhine Getaway (A to B)in April because of its size, no children and great reputation. Although I have seen several posts, they are scattered and older. Want to hear from veteran travelers who have been on the particular cruise as to what are the absolute musts, your favorite meals, restaurants, excursions, plus those to avoid. We are planners and want to know the best excursions along with those we could skip or add on too. Thanks for your input. The Tupelo Crew
