COVID
Has anyone contracted COVID while traveling in Germany, Austria, Northern Italy, or Switzerland? We have an upcoming trip to the Dolomites in June. We have been on a couple of Viking River Cruises, one in 2022 and one in 2024 and I tested positive for COVID when we returned from each of them. Has anyone had such an experience with Tauck? How was it handled? Thanks!

Tauck has a Covid policy, it’s on the website, but when I took some late Covid tours with them, they did not follow guidelines and there were people on one tour, quite a few who had Covid. Both tours, masks were supposed to be compulsory but Tauck did not enforced it. One thing for sure, if someone shows signs of Covid on tour, the TD has no powers to ask them to test or isolate them….they are not a doctor.
It really is up to you to protect yourself. We have never had Covid, but the few colds etc we get are on Tauck tours from fellow travelers.
Remember that Europeans are more likely to be vaccinated than Americans these days. We get our Covid shots here in the US every six months which is recommended and Medicare covers it. Last one was a few weeks ago. We were in Europe fairly recently and never knowingly came in contact with Covid. Austria, Bratislava and Hungary
