$2499 – Viking Europe river cruise w/air & more, save $1490

Update (March 21, 9:30 a.m. ET): Due to popularity, the $2499 departures have sold out. Departures for the 7-night cruises now start at $2599; departures for the 14-night river cruise now start at $3799.

If you were to search for this cruise elsewhere, the sailing itself would cost more than this exclusive offer that includes roundtrip airfare, an upgraded drinks package (we see a glass of bubbly in your future) and even a $500 onboard spending credit. Combine that impressive value with the fact that we haven't seen a Viking river cruise in three years, and you've got a true no-brainer. 

What's included:

• 7-night cruise aboard a Viking Longship in a riverview cabin
• Free airfare from all gateways in the United States except Alaska, Hawaii, San Juan, Canada and Mexico City
• Upgraded silver spirits beverage package, which covers any drinks (excluding Champagne) up to $18, including premium wines by the glass, cocktails, beers, liquors, soft drinks, specialty coffees and more (reg. $140 per person)
• $500 onboard credit, per cabin
• One guided walking tour in every port of call
• Free Wi-Fi (connection speed may vary)
• Transfers between the airport to the ship (when flights are booked through Viking)
• Port taxes and fees
