I was concerned after reading some reviews of this ship that it might be dirty or outdated but after boarding I found everything to be in just about perfect condition. The decorations and layout of the ship were very impressive. We had an interior stateroom that was compact but had enough space for us to be comfortable.
The shows were one of the most impressive parts of the cruise, the singers and dancers gave wonderful performances. I was able to karaoke one night and had a great time with that too. They had a lot of events and classes to choose from. The Viking crown lounge had a great late night DJ and the views of the ship at night were amazing. Our cruise was during the beginning of February so it was a little too cool to go swimming, but they had multiple pools we would have used if the weather had been warmer.
The food served was very impressive as well. I don't eat meat so I was a little concerned about having adequate nutrition, but they had plenty of options for vegetarians. I definitely recommend getting the drink pass, and if not keep an eye out for the automatic gratuity added to every order.
Seahorse Snorkeling and Sailing, great excursion!
