Viking is a great cruise line, Embarkation was simple and efficient. Elegant, great service. No kids which is a bonus. All about the ports and the people. Great ports and excursions. Food and service were excellent. We were on the maiden voyage of the Viking Sea. Cabins were spacious with first rate amenities. Heated floors in the bathroom. Lots of storage space. Loved the veranda. Had coffee out there each morning. Each port had wonderful excursions. Learned a lot about the history of Turkey, Greece and Croatia. Service was first rate. Meals were wonderful. Lots of choices. Shows and entertainment were first rate. Loved the Abba and Beatles tributes. Wonderful food was available any time you wanted it, Afternoon tea sitting in the explorer's lounge was relaxing. Loved the infinity pool. Ship was just the right size. The self service laundry was a real plus. Will definitely go on another viking cruise in the future
