A New Favorite Cruise Line

Review for a Baltic Sea Cruise on Europa 2

As American English-speaking first timers on Hapag-Lloyd, we chose this cruise to try the storied line (with a long and very distinguished history, much like Cunard), and to be on a smaller upmarket ship, but with a completely different, German vibe. We were not disappointed. It was a wonderful overall cruise experience. Europa 2 is a small(er) ship and is quiet and subdued, with a very sleek ...

Viking Overpriced and Not Premium

Review for a Transatlantic Cruise on Viking Star

My wife and I chose Viking because it runs smaller ships and after three years without cruising believed this to be a safer option following COVID. This was our first time on Viking after 30+ cruises with other cruise companies. It was probably the worst. We made the decision to sail from Bergen to Montreal and then a second cruise from Montreal to New York 26 days in all. We saw the best and ...

Interested in the destinations and historical background of the region. The ports were interesting, and the guides were knowledgeable and fun. Our guides in the Shetland Islands and Quebec City were outstanding. Wished we could have spent some more time in Iceland, as a one-day stay was less than optimal. Because of weather (Farrow Islands) and a problem with distilling fresh water due to low ...

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 ...

Port Replacements for Russia, Estonia and Finland Were Mediocre

We had been looking forward to seeing St. Petersburg but understood why that stop had to be changed, of course, as well as Finland and Estonia. However the replacement stops were mostly unremarkable. We still enjoyed the trip due to the excellent staff who were always kind and friendly making each day a joy. The entertainment was awesome! And the food was fantastic. We also very much ...

We chose this cruise because it had ports of call in countries we have not yet been able to visit. Unfortunately, we were not able to visit Estonia, Russia and Helsinki. This did not deter us from having a great time at the ports we did visit. We would have liked to not have the two additional nights in Oslo as we did the pre-cruise in Oslo. However it did give us the opportunity to see the ...
