cr1 Posted March 1, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 1, 2013 We will be sailing Viking's Romantic Danube in Sept. For others who have done this itinerary, how early were you allowed to board the ship? We are starting in Nuremberg. Very excited about our first river cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacksonnh Posted March 1, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 1, 2013 People disembark in the morning at various times. You can store your luggage on board until your room is ready. Viking has always provided a lite lunch for those arriving. Some people just sit around and relax and others visit the town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr1 Posted March 1, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Thank you! Exactly the info I needed. If arriving to Nuremberg by train, do you think a taxi would be the best way to get to the pier? I think it's only a 15 minute ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary Cruiser Posted March 1, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 1, 2013 We are doing the same cruise on the Viking Idun at the beginning of November, but will be transported by Viking from Prague to Nuremburg. I was told that the ride from Prague is about 2hrs, 45 minutes. I was kind of wondering what time they were going to get us to the boat and if they make any stops along the way.

OkieCruiser49 Posted March 1, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 1, 2013 We did the Nuremberg to Prague trip after a cruise last year, and the buses will make a stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary Cruiser Posted March 2, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 2, 2013 We did the Nuremberg to Prague trip after a cruise last year, and the buses will make a stop. Was it a pit stop for the restrooms or a stop to actually see something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OkieCruiser49 Posted March 2, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 2, 2013 For us it was a pit stop and refreshments. We were going from Nuremberg to Prague, and we stopped right over the Czech border at a stop with McDonalds and another filling station/snack bar.

MURPHY27 Posted March 2, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I took a private transfer last year rather than the bus otherwise its a basic bus ride with one stop. Make sure you have coins for the bathroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cr1 Posted March 3, 2013 Author #9 Share Posted March 3, 2013 MURPHY27, were you happy with the private transfer service you used? We may decide to do that. Let loading and unloading of luggage than if using train and taxis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
