From the moment we boarded the ship, everything was great! We loved the small ship with only 900 people. It never felt crowded. Excursions were excellent and informative. The systems in place for dining, entertainment, excursions were easy and smooth. Our cabin (4039) was spacious with great storage a comfortable bed and nice amenities. We ate at all of the restaurant locations which gave you some ...

We chose the cruise because it went to Thessaloniki and Crete. Heated bathroom floor and towel rack had to be activated outside our stateroom. That's bad in summer. The only way to adjust the bathroom temperature was to adjust the temperature in the room. Most of the food was good. In the World Cafe, signs did not always match the food. Most serious was putting soft-boiled eggs under the ...

We chose this cruise because we wanted to see Greece and Viking was offering upgrades, great fares, and free airfare. So we decided to go for it!! The cruise was phenomenal - the ship was immaculate - the food was beyond what I have ever had on a cruise. No photographers, no children no extra fees, and free shore excursions if we used to take part in them. We chose to upgrade our shore ...

Viking promises "travel the world in comfort". This cruise was no exception to that promise. Elegant surroundings, exceptional service, exquisite cuisine - there is a reason why Viking is a leader in the industry. My husband and I had previously traveled on a Viking river cruise, their Grand European Tour in May 2022 and were made immediate fans of Viking. When we received a promotional ...

Viking won us over on our first river cruise last year, and our first ocean cruise was just a fine.

Wonderful opportunity to see Athens, Crete, Rhodes, Ephesus, Troy and Istanbul. Beautiful ship, wonderful food and the service that makes Viking famous. The shore excursions had informative and friendly guides. We visited three UNESCO World Heritage sites- my favorite was the medieval walled city on Rhodes. The ruins at Ephesus were incredible. We both enjoyed the many friendly dogs in ...

We chose this cruise because it touched so many of the ancient sites in Greece and Turkey that we wanted to visit. A cruise is the best way of reaching such a widely spread list of fascinating sites within a reasonable amount of time; the fact that Viking provided such a good range of excursion options was a bonus, backed up by the subject matter experts that were on the ship, providing lectures ...

This was my fourth Viking cruise and at this point, I can't imagine cruising with any other line. I didn't really choose this itinerary; it chose me through an offer I couldn't refuse. I love the Viking ships and I love knowing exactly where I am and where to go as soon as I step on board. I get the greatest sense of homecoming each time I return. It's like a beloved vacation resort that takes ...

Review for Viking Venus to Europe - Eastern Mediterranean

It was our very first Viking cruise. We chose the Journey to Antiquities cruise because the schedule worked well with ours, the total package was priced reasonably, we haven't been to the specific places on this tour, and the call of "quality" beckoned. We've only read about "the Viking diffference" before and we wanted to experience it ourselves. Everything was as expected, and more... ...

I loved my first Viking experience, and I have always wanted to travel to Italy, so this cruise was a “no brainer”! The history involved in this journey was especially fascinating.The crew was amazing! Viking meets every possible need - some we didn’t even know we would have! We especially enjoyed the entertainment included. There was always something going on that was fun. The Viking Venus is ...

The overall cruise was great but the food selections and cabin were not up to par for a Viking sailing. The World Café has many of the same items each night (side dishes, fillers, salads) and the selections for the main courses were limited. Also on the night they served lobster we ate in the restaurant but when they served the lobster it was "fishy". I ate one bite and that was it. We went to the ...
