London (Greenwich, Tower Bridge, Tilbury) Romantic Cruises Reviews

The Northern Lights were on our bucket list so we were excited to do this cruise. The winds were too strong to make it into Bodo so we cruised onward. Viking was unaware of the Sami Festival culminating the weekend we were in Tromso. I asked the General Manager, Tom, why we could not get to Tromso, the next port, earlier so we could participate and enjoy the Sami Festival. He was not aware of the ...

The adventure of a cold vacation in beautiful Norway, with the chance of seeing the Northern Lights was a draw. Great time on a beautiful ship, full of cozy places to read, visit and explore.The Spa was fun and so nice to be able to use it as often as we wanted. Massage staff very good and helpful. Embarkation and disembarkation were the smoothest and least amount of hassle of any cruise ...

Seeing the Northern Lights was on our bucket list. This was the first cruise we noticed that offered that opportunity. We have sailed Viking before so we were aware of the restaurants, food, etc. so we snapped at the chance and signed up. Obviously, sailing the north Atlantic in JANUARY is probably not the smartest thing to do if you get sea sick easily, and there are no guarantees that the ...

We wanted to see a part of the world that is not easily accessible and also beautiful. The few days at sea allowed us a very good opportunity to explore and enjoy the various amenities provided on the ship. All the crew were tremendously friendly and helpful. I particularly enjoyed visiting the spa with the large heated jacuzzi, steam, sauna and snow grotto. The fitness center offered all the ...

Having taken 2 previous cruises on Viking, we were pleased with the consistent attention to details, friendly crew, cabin cleanliness and comfort and over all relaxed atmosphere. Another very pleasurable experience! Thank you Viking for keeping your 5.5* standards. Upon arrival at baggage carousel we were met by a very friendly Viking representative, who guided us to our transportation to the ...

(Sorry in advance for the long review.) My wife & I had not been on any significant cruises in the past decade because the trend to larger ships goes against most of what I want in a cruise. Things that are important to me are: lack of crowds, not feeling like each activity or announcement was a grab for more money, food properly prepared (does not need to be uber-high end, but it shouldn't ...

I treated my art teaching daughter to this cruise during her Christmas vacation. She had never been on a cruise previously and was impressed with the beautiful Viking Star amenities. Our cabin was roomy and comfortable. I don't think my daughter believed that we could have a 4 star meal every night at your excellent restaurant. We particularly enjoyed the New Year's Day brunch which was a ...

We chose this cruise for our anniversary (and to get away from the cold weather) and also because this cruise would take us to countries we'd never been to before, Unfortunately, the cruise began just a couple of days after the huge earthquake in Puerto Rico. That did not affect our time in San Juan. Don't know if that also adversely affect the weather, but the Captain was not able to dock at ...

A smaller cruise ship ( about 900 guests). Although the ship was almost at capacity, never felt like it. Excellent friendly service....great food, wonderful experience. We chose it for the itinerary and were pleased with every port. Rough seas made it necessary to divert, missing a port, but adding a fjord, so we were pleased. This is our first Viking Ocean cruise experience and we ...

This was a special event for a special birthday. We were a group of four from the UK - two couples. Right from the start the level of service and attention to detail were amazing - from the embarkation process, the cabin, the food, the excursions, the explorers lounge. We had the silver spirits package and this proved to be a great addition. My husband and I love cocktails , so we could try them ...
