Lovely Longship that Sails Bordeaux

βœ“ I liked

Loved learning about Bordeaux and the region through small ports and interesting stops on the Garonne & Dordogne Rivers.

βœ— I didn't like

The itinerary doesn't sail that much - of 7 nights, it's docked overnight 3 times and does very minimal sailing overall.

πŸ’¬ Comment

Viking staff is very friendly, food is good (not great), and we loved that they served Bordeaux wine even with included lunch/dinner beverages. And they don't charge any corkage fee for wines you bring on the ship during the trip!
