Having recently disembarked from Holland America’s Rotterdam this(June 5 2022) I would like to share my thoughts with you. Be prepared for a long, thorough report.
This a brand new, well maintained boat. We had about 60-70% capacity. A great majority 65 plus. Many walkers and motorized wheel chairs. Maybe a dozen children along with a group of 150 young European

Did more ships from Celebrity! Also with the grand old lady "Conny". Top.
But the Apex was in one word "Fantastic".
Tips: Have a drink on the carpet!

Go to a show in the theater with the beautiful LED screen, or take a walk on the curves up and down walking/running track.

This ship is amazing - can't say enough great things about it. Food was excellent, staff was great. The entertainment was so different and so enjoyable. Martini Bar, well what can I say - try the gangster martini.
I would say it is going to be hard to beat this ship - I was in Aqua Class - with the infinity balcony - loved it.
Sailed the British Isles - weather was too chilly to use the ...
I went with a friend and this was her pick. I had been to Oslo in the past but had not spent anytime around the Fjords.
I know the world is still coping with Covid but we did have a bit of a hassle with the covid test required before the sailing. We had spent 3 days in Amsterdam so then had to find a place to get the test, at our expense, when it seems like the Viking labs could have done that ...
The cruise was quite good. The ship was in incredibly good shape, the tour directors Edward and Max were excellent. great guided tours on land.Excellent lectures by astronomer Dr Brad Hughes and historian Dr. Bazin. The fjord cruise to Flam was breathtaking. The food was excellent and the crew was incredibly polite and friendly. On our last day, Thursday we interpreted from the brochures that we ...
We had not intended to go on a sea cruise but the offer earlier this year was too good to refuse and we are so glad we said yes. Viking came up to all the superb standards that we have experienced on our river cruises and we loved every moment. We cannot fault anything from the restaurant service, to the bar service, to the quality of our stateroom, to the excellence of the entertainment, to the ...
I chose this cruise because of the itinerary. Norwegian fjords were always on my list of world wonders to see, but the cruise became more about the people who made it such a delight and the first of many Viking cruises I plan to take.
I cannot say enough about the warmth and welcoming atmosphere which greeted us each day as we went about the ship and shore excursions—I looked forward to every ...
This is my first time on any line that wasn't one of the "big 3" and I will never go back! From the no-children, no-pressure, no-casino on-board experience, to the included tours, to the airport and hotel transfers, to the food, to the staff, to the verandas, to the scenery absolutely every detail was spectacular. The spa was an excellent amenity and is included for all (massages were reasonably ...
There was nothing ordinary about this cruise: everything was above and beyond. Viking treated us like special people, not numbers on a passenger list. The food, crew, entertainment, and the ship itself was superlative. The pre-excursion talks were informative and gave us more insight into our excursions. The library had a wealth of information; the hallways had nicely appointed original sketches ...
Truly enjoyed seeing the Fjords of Norway and starting/ending at Amsterdam. I needed time connecting with nature and this cruise provided many opportunities to do that. 95% of staff was awesome, and I think that is all one can reasonably ask because there is no such thing as perfection. Beautuful ship; love the art theme. Musical and dance entertainment was outstanding. I am in awe of the Lincoln ...
