Q:
Hi We are taking a river cruise with Select Explorer from Passau, Germany to Giurgiu, Romania. Am I correct to assume we will pass through the Iron Gates on the Danube. I am a bit confused as our cruise is offering a tour by bus of the Iron Gates? Not sure if it is just a money grab or if some River Cruises do not pass through this area. Looking at the map it looks like the only way to go! Any information you have would be much appreciated. Regards

The Viking cruises run regularly. Ours was about 10 nights spent in hotels and on the boat. The boat itself was very safe in that it had fully trained staff and every cabin was equipped with life jackets. We also had a practice to ensure that we knew what to do in the case of an emergency. Viking have a website and the regularity and duration of all the trips can be seen on there. I hope this helps.
