We took this cruise to become familiar with Viking Ocean before taking the 141 day World Cruise that we have booked with Viking Sun. Couple travelling with us impressed enough to also book World Cruise while on board..
Embarkation problem due to fog relocating ship to Trieste. Not really Viking's fault, but they should have had more agents in Trieste. They did apologize with a $250 trip credit pp when we got home.
Pompeii excursion was probably the best we have ever been on. Some other excursions did not leave enough or any time on our own ...If they did, shuttle bus service back to ship was not well organized....some long waits.
