This was the most amazing vacation we have ever had, the crew were more like family,the stateroom was so comfortable and very pretty, the shower was large. Food fantastic. I would highly recommend Viking . The entertainment each evening was cultural and fun. The excursions were were enlightening, we all learned so much about each of the towns we visited we also had adequate time to go off on our own to explore at leisure. It was fun watching the cooks fix breakfast, amazing the way they could flip eggs without missing a beat, and they would fix them any way you wanted so good. On most cruises you pay extra for excursions and also beer and wine but on Viking the excursions are included and at meals beer, wine and soft drinks are also included. Rain was in the forecast on a couple of days Viking was ready with umbrellas for everyone who wanted one, they were always prepared whatever the circumstances. If you want the most memorable vacation you must go with Viking they will not let you down
