Viking River Cruises Now Adults Only
Viking Ocean Cruises, the deep-sea fleet, has had a policy for about two years that no one under the age of 18 will be accepted as a passenger, and now, the adults-only policy has been extended to its huge fleet of riverboats — Viking River Cruises. The passenger has to have reached 18 on the day prior to embarkation.
The ban applies to all new bookings from August 1, 2018. Those booked before that date will be allowed to travel as long as they are at least 12 years old. This latter policy will be in play until the year 2020 when those who do not now qualify will have sailed.
Meanwhile, other river lines, including Uniworld, are offering incentives and special activities to attract families with children during summer school breaks and holiday periods.
