Last-minute flash-sale offering 15-day Grand European Tour sailing from Amsterdam to Budapest. Staterooms start at $2,999/person (Cat C-F). Offer expires June 17, 2016.

Imagine 15 magical days along the Rhine, Main and Danube Rivers. From Holland’s windmill-studded tulip fields to Germany’s fairytale castles, from the engineering marvel of the Main–Danube Canal to the picturesque vineyards of Austria’s Wachau Valley, this epic voyage presents the highlights of Holland, Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary. Savor a decadent Sachertorte in a Viennese café and panoramic views of imperial Budapest and along the way, discover the legend of the Lorelei, the ancient art of glassblowing, the music of Mozart and more. Guests who choose this voyage soon see why it is Viking’s most popular itinerary.

We brought you a flash-sale offer on this sailing back in early April and it was so well received, we booked 12 sailings in one weekend.  This offering has less availability, but the price has dropped $1,000/person.

A 15-day European vacation starting at $2,999/person is a remarkable offer!

Before we get started, there are a few things you need to know:

1. These offers are not advertised to the general public and will not be found on the Viking River Cruises website.  We bring our clients and readers access to these offers because of our relationship with Viking.  We do a lot of business with Viking, and they only make these offers available to their best travel partners.
2. These offers are very limited in supply. Viking is filling up the remaining staterooms on this sailing, and when they’re gone, they’re gone.  So, if you’re interested, don’t delay.
3. Because these are very special and limited offers, Viking will require full payment at booking, or within 90 days of departure, if earlier.
4. All of the prices below are per person prices based on double occupancy.
5. Lastly, these last-minute offers are for new bookings only.

If you’re interested, and want to check on availability, call our office at (480) 550-1235.  Or, use our convenient online information request (click here) and we’ll reach out to you.

OK. Now that we got that on the table, let us tell you about this wonderful offer from Viking River Cruises…

June – October 2016 Departures

While these prices are certainly attractive and worthy of your immediate response, perhaps the most exciting part of this last-minute offer is that the balcony staterooms are being offered at $3,999/person.

I just peeked at Viking Website to compare these special unadvertised last-minute offers and the staterooms above are listed at $4,762/person and the balcony staterooms start at $6,962/person.  So, as you can see, this last-minute offer is really quite remarkable. To be frank, there’s no way in creation you could have a 4-star+ European, all-inclusive vacation at these prices.
