Harwich to Norwegian Fjords Cruise Reviews

This was our 2nd cruise, first for Fred Olsen. Our room was a balcony suite 9903 on Marquee deck 9. Having heard the reports over the past trees weeks when they had the engine problem we were slightly apprehensive as to if the cruise would be cancelled or not, thankfully no problems on enquiring. We sailed from Harwich, only a 30 mile journey and for once we had someone drop us off, there ...

Beautiful ship, a work of Art. Excellent food and breathtaking scenery with wonderful excursions at each port. We managed to get a cancellation and our stateroom was marvellous. All the public areas of the ship are beautiful. The service from the wonderfully friendly staff could not be faulted. The dining options were varied and we enjoyed the speciality restaurants although our preference was to ...

After three days in London we transferred to Harwich Port to the new Viking Sea. Embarkation was flawless and quick, we boarded and found our stateroom to be excellent. The ship is all veranda staterooms, the bathroom floor and mirrors are heated. Plenty of drawer, shelf and hanging space for two weeks. We required extra hangers which were provided in a flash. Wine and beer are provided ...

We chose a month-long cruise that focused on the Norwegian fjords and the Baltic -- it was a combination itinerary that satisfied my desire to cruise the fjords and my husband's to visit the ports of the Baltic. It was the Viking Sea's second voyage -- and it was fantastic. The ship was beautiful; the crew were friendly and helpful; the shore sightseeing options were plentiful and the staff very ...

Had always wanted to go to Norway and Scotland, had had an excellent experience on a Viking river cruise in 2014. The ship was wonderful (Viking Sea). The cabin was great. Food and service were above expectations. Embarkation and disembarkation could not have gone more smoothly. The entertainment was professional grade, the best we've had on any cruise. Shore excursions were overall very ...

The Viking Sea is a brand new ship that is beautifully appointed and one feels not only welcome but quickly at home. We enjoyed the many conversational areas that were offered all around the ship. The original art and small libraries found around the ship made it very hospitable and comfortable. The dining arrangements were terrific as we particularly enjoyed The Chef's Table and the many ...

Heard about Viking starting Ocean cruising when on a Viking River Cruise 2 years earlier and thought we'd try it. The embarkation went very smoothly as we were taken from Heathrow to Harwich by taxi with another couple. The Viking Sea was brand new and had state-of-the-art technology. Cabins were roomy as were the bathrooms which had underfloor heating. The food was excellent and so was the ...

We chose this cruise based on the itinerary and on our enjoyment of previous Viking River cruises. Viking hit the nail on the head with their Ocean cruises. We loved the size and feel of the ship. The decor is light and airy without any fussiness, yet Viking made it feel warm and friendly by creating gathering spaces throughout the ship - each with a unique feel to it. The inclusion of hi-tech ...

We choose this cruise because of the itinerary, the midnight sun and the baltics (Two cruises were combined into one). We were not disappointed. Scotland and Norway (the first half of our cruise) were natural wonders. Beautiful scenery and photography. The second half (the baltics) was more citified but also wonderful. The food on the Viking Sea was first rate. The restaurant has dedicated staff ...

Everything was exceptional. The food selection was excellent and the presentation was as you would get in the finest restaurant. Accommodations very comfortable and the many enrichments lectures were a fantastic bonus. The public rooms were quite nice, the entertainment way above what you would expect in a ship of this size, and the spa was fantastic. The cruise to the North Cape was gorgeous ...
