Bergen to Baltic Sea Cruise Reviews

The Good: The ship is nice and the ports are interesting. Manfredi’s is a great place and the man who manages it is a very accommodating fellow. Our room Steward was very good. The not-so-good: The silver liquor package is not worth it anymore. When we traveled with Viking on the Budapest to Amsterdam river cruise the higher-end wine and liquor were worth the extra money – on this ...

We chose this cruise because of Hurtigruten's reputation for providing the best and most authentic trip to the North Cape of Europe. We really liked the idea that we would be travelling on a "working boat" which was still an important link for many of the more remote communities on the Norwegian north coast. The trip was well beyond our expectations. The boat was very comfortable, with our ...

We chose this cruise since we wanted to visit the Scandinavian countries. It was our first Viking experience and it met all of our expectations. The service was outstanding and the food was extremely good in all the restaurant facilities. Ample activities were offered on board ship. The entertainment was very enjoyable. The excursions were extremely organized. The entire trip was a very delightful ...

The Viking cruise line gives you a 10 out of 10 service I felt so special and that’s fantastic Cruise. They make you feel like you are number one. I also had special dietary needs and they went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied above and beyond. Also the excursions were very nice and organized as well. They also picked you up from the airport and brought you to your ...

We had heard good reviews about Viking from our friends so we decided to give it a try - we were on two prior cruises with other lines. We picked the Viking Homelands cruise after having two prior cruises cancelled due to Covid. We added Iceland as a pre-cruise excursion and were glad we did. We enjoyed all of our port of calls but wished Finland had been included on the itinerary. The ship was ...

We chose this cruise in 2019 after our first experience with Viking -- a River Cruise in Provence. We thought it would be a good way to see Scandinavia, where we had never been before. It would also have probably been our only chance to see St. Petersburg. After two covid cancellations we were pleased that we finally got to go, even without St. Petersburg (cancellation of which was a ...

My land tour was cancelled at the last minute and I had to find an alternative. Hurtigruten was all I could find but it is little more than a passenger ferry and an expensive one at that! I could have bought a new car for what I paid Hurtigruten and they‘nickel and dime’ their passengers for everything from extortionate alcohol prices to expensive bus ride excursions which passengers could do ...

We choose this cruise due to the variety of destinations. Originally our itinerary included St. Petersburg but and another major stop but due to political reasons we had two very small islands (Bornholm and Mariehamn) added which were a disappointment. Now for the good news! The ship size was very manageable. There is an excellent variety of restaurant selections. Breakfast can be buffet or ...

We selected this because of the itinerary and because we wanted to try out Viking. We had never been to Scandinavia and the Viking trip seemed a good way of scouting out the area. We liked that the cruise spent two nights in Bergen, Oslo and Stockholm which gave us more time to explore these cities. We would have liked another day in Copenhagen but we are going back there this summer. We met a ...

Destination was the main reason for selecting this cruise. We have done a river cruise with Viking and were very please. This ship was very nice, clean, bright and offered all the amenities you could want. The staff was great. Everyone was very accommodating. The guitarist was wonderful. Play our request and learned a new tune we suggested. Was disappointed in the chef's table. The service ...
