Eastern Euro Capitals with Viking

We're still in Tasmania.

Should have been overnighting in Bicheno! Instead, we kept going and arrived in Prospect Vale … a suburb of Launceston.

The change in plans gave us downtime this afternoon to work on 2024 travel plans for fall/winter.

In 2022, we canceled our Swiss Alps to Paris river cruise with Viking. The reason? Concern over river levels during August. The cancelation did not hit us in the wallet. Instead, we were given a voucher for the entire fare … with a use-by date of 20 July 2024.

So, today we deposited a French balcony cabin on the two-week long "Capitals of Eastern Europe" itinerary on the longboat Kadlin … a mid-October sailing on the Danube River ... Vienna, Austria to Bucharest, Romania.

We are excited about finally dipping our toes into Eastern Europe!

Keeping fingers crossed that there are no water level issues to deal with.Læs mere
