My husband and I are 66 and 72 years of age, and we were delighted with the variety of on-board evening shows; the sumptuous, gourmet, delicious meals; and the exciting shore excursions, all of which were led by astute, interesting, witty guides, and conducted at a lively pace. The cabin was immaculate and quiet, the staff was attentive and friendly, and the clientele was marvelous. It was the best vacation of our lives!!! Everything was perfect, and Viking lived up to its reputation. I would definitely do this again and recommend it to anyone, young and old. It was exciting to see so many different cities and learn about their history and have time to hike, explore, make new friends over dinner, and shop as much as we liked. I slept well, which is unusual for me on a trip; I think it was due to the sense of security and peace of mind I had, along with the healthy exercise gained from the daily excursions. It was a most relaxing and educationally stimulating experience! We both loved it!
