We chose to cruise on Viking because of their reputation. This was our first time cruising with them and it won't be our last. We loved this cruise line!!! If you need to be entertained with activities like games and exercises every day, this cruise line is not for you. We enjoyed presentations about how to take better pictures, which you wouldn't think would be something you'd want to attend, ...
The activities, meaning excursions, were simply wonderful and perfect. The people we met were all very nice and seem to have a great relationship with Viking. Hats off to the tour guides and the drivers, and (of course), the guides. Onboard the ship I met a lot of smiling and genuinely happy appearing people. Of course the food was wonderful as it was diverse - and I had some of the best and ...
We chose the "In Search of Northern Lights" cruise because seeing northern lights was a top "bucket list" experience we wanted to have. We chose the particular date because it was the only cruise that had an ADA-compliant accessible stateroom still available when we booked almost a year ahead. As it turned out, this cruise had the best weather conditions for seeing the lights of any cruises by the ...
We choose this cruise to see the Northern Lights. We lucked out with the best weather ever! Captain said it was the best cruise weather of the season! We were in Alta or the best display of the northern lights ever! The lights appeared 4 out of the 6 days we were in the artic zone! Fabulous service, fantastic room. Great food choices! Excellent enrichment speakers. This was as close to ...
I wanted to experience something very different and my Viking cruise “In Search of the Northern Lights” fulfilled that dream.
The ship, the crew, the excursions were all FANTASTIC. I could not ask for anything more in a cruise. Dining experience from elegant room service to dinner at the Chef’s Table were all top notch.
Excursions exceeded expectations, ie, The Knitting Factory tour in ...
Seeing the Northern Lights have been top of my bucket list for a while, so when a friend suggested we take this Viking cruise to Norway up above the Arctic Circle, I went for it.
Well, my friend lost her passport of the final flight of three to Bergen and it could not be found. She was devastated to find that she would need to travel to Oslo to obtain a new passport, but I have to tell you, ...
On our journey in Search of the Northern Lights, we were redirected by hurricane-force winds, the threat of an avalanche and had overcast skies much of the time. Our intrepid Captain rerouted us to safer ports and scenic fjord-lined channels to other ports of call. The staff worked tirelessly to set up excursions in our unexpected ports of call. The food and the service was superior.
We had one ...
We love Viking. Because of weather we could not go to 2 of our ports. They did a wonderful job in getting new pots with great excursions. The service is so good. I have dietary restrictions and they accommodate them extremely well. The Chef's Table is superb, but all of the restaurants serve excellent food. This was a Northern Lights cruise and they alerted
us even late at night so we ...
Viking is first class all the way. Their customer service is second to none!
We had a change in itinerary due to severe weather conditions in Northern Norway but they put together a new itinerary for us that was incredible! Viking really goes out of their way to make sure that we are satisfied and I truly appreciate that.
The entertainment was so great. Loved the piano music every night ...
This was our 7th cruise but the first one on Viking. We picked "Trade Routes of the Middle Ages" due to its 7-country itinerary and Viking's reputation for service. Viking impressed us in all areas and we'll definitely sail with them again in the future.

1. We missed our flight connection in Amsterdam (AMS) partly due to our own fault getting lost and Viking Air giving us only a ...
