In order to give you perspective, we chose this ship based on the fact we had sailed on the Regal on five different occasions and were excited to sail on the Sky during her inaugural season, we have also sailed on Princess’ Grand and Crown class ships but prefer the Royal class ships, having said that, we have enjoyed every cruise with Princess.
Embarkation: We embarked in Barcelona, although ...
Was excited to be on a brand new ship that was part of the Royal Princess group. Had a good itinerary and was happy with my past cruises on the Royal and over 20 past Princess cruises. We have had a total of 40+ cruises on various lines.
The Medallion system is a lot of hype about nothing. I never had a problem carrying a cruise card in my pocket and presenting it for a purchase. I can't ...
We were so excited to be going on a transatlantic cruise, as well as having several stops in Spain and Portugal. We had been told there would be many activities on board on sea days, but we didn't find that to be the case. There was little to do. The schedule looks pretty full, but on further evaluation, many of the "activities" were simply drop-by type things, like pricing the artwork or spa ...
This trip was wonderful on so many dimensions. The ship was brand new, elegant and cozy! Not crowded. Had great seats, views everywhere I went.
The food was delicious. The crew was marvelous-- they knew my name by day 2. And were so gracious and accommodating,
The port calls were varied and very interesting. Perfect for the person who wants to see the world and experience different ...
I love viking ocean. This was a 39 day cruise. We do back to back cruise. Have four more booked. Would like to have more games on ship. We did trivia on every at sea day. Would like minute to win it also. We like fun things to do. We ate at world cafe nearly every night. Wonderful food and staff is even better. We do mainly viking ocean and we live in Port Canaveral with many cruise ships. Would ...
Everything about this cruise was awesome..The best was the entertainment. The crew members were very talented and we had the best, and I say the best and most talented entertainers that I have ever seen on a cruise...and I have been on many many cruises. The food was awesome.The bar service was awesome. Almost everyone on the ship called me by my name as we passed during the time that we were on ...
We chose this cruise because it was a re-positioning/crossing with good ports and quite a few sea days. It far exceeded our expectations. The on-board activities were great and the food was outstanding. Viking staff were excellent. The ports were very interesting and all but one was new to us. Viking was great in making all arrangements. We made new friends on-board and had a fabulous time. ...
We are Mariner 4 on Holland America but decided to have a change and try the new guy on the block, Viking.
I don’t know how it happened, the airiness of the open spaces, the friendly faces, I know not but immediately we felt totally relaxed.........normally it takes a day or two.
The heart of any cruise ship are the personnel, the people looking after your needs and the needs you didn’t ...
We chose this cruise because it provided an opportunity for us to visit cities and countries that we had never seen before. We had been on a Viking River Cruise before and was very pleased with the experience. We appreciated that the fees were all up front. The ship was clean, comfortable and the staff always polite and helpful. The service was impeccable.
We especially enjoyed the meals at ...
This was my first cruise and my first foreign travel experience. I was thrilled with the size of the ship: small in comparison with other cruise ships. The crew was diverse and extremely helpful and friendly. There was always something to do while at sea from lectures, films, games, books, a puzzle, beautiful music, wonderful food in several venues in a variety of settings, two pools, a full ...
