Viking Ocean Malta (Valletta) Cruise Reviews

The 930-passenger ship is a perfect size for me. The penthouse veranda was nicely appointed and the beds were very comfortable. The ship has a couple specialty restaurants that were excellent. The main restaurant was also very good with a wide variety of specialties served throughout the cruise. We purchased the drinks package, which was very worthwhile for us as we typically have a drink or two ...

I chose this cruise because of the destination (Croatia) and because of the safety precautions that were in place due to COVID. I loved everything about the cruise. Boarding the ship was a breeze as was disembarkation. The ship was only about half capacity. The staff were so eager to see us and extremely professional and courteous. The food and wine were great with a good variety of selections ...

Viking was well organized and ship was stunning. Loved the Thermal Suite--try everything! Push all the buttons including the one in the snow room!! Happy and cordial staff everywhere. Our balcony penthouse(not a penthouse) was perfect with tons of storage. Easy covid testing everyday. Unique vessel sinks to wash your hands just inside the dining venues. The average age on our cruise we ...

My First Viking Cruise was amazing. It was just what i needed after all the lockdowns in the uk. I felt very safe onboard with this company doing covid tests every day. We started our cruise in Malta to Croatia and a free trip of your choice in every port or you can pay for a trip on many of there other planed trips. The ship was amazing the choice of restaurant's very good and afternoon tea with ...

I chose Viking because of my prior experience in the five river cruises that I have sailed on before. Travel in comfort, that is for certain. Got the drinks package and it was a great choice. All personnel were very helpful and outstanding customer service throughout. The excursions were well managed on time and outstanding guides. The stateroom was very confortable with plenty of room in the ...

We took the combined cruise from Malta and thoroughly enjoyed the entire cruise. The Viking team handled the Covid restrictions well and made it less intrusive than it could have been. Overall, it was a great three weeks. We enjoyed Malta, the Greek islands, and Croatia. We had to skip Montenegro because of Covid restrictions. Otherwise, the tour stops were very good. For some locations we were ...

Nice to get back on the water. Lots of paperwork to get on the cruise, some of it was never checked. PCR tested every morning, as far as I know, there were no outbreaks. The Viking only charter flight direct to/from Malta was icing on the cake. We had to skip Montenegro because of changing Covid conditions, we spent 2 days in Dubrovnik instead. Tours varied, some good, some not so good. In ...

This review includes information on our August 10, 2021, “Malta & Adriatic Jewels” cruise on the Viking Sea. Although we have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 since February, 2021, we had not anticipated cruising safely until 2022. We especially had not considered cruising from Malta as it is so difficult to get there from our home airport, Raleigh/Durham (RDU). However, at the beginning of ...

It was so long since we had cruised. When we saw the chance to go on a fully vaccinated cruise with exceptional health protocols, we jumped at it and we made it a back-to-back, starting in Malta, cruising the Adriatic, Montenegro and Croatia, then back to Malta, the Greek Islands, and returning to Malta to fly home. On board, we were tested every day, including when we boarded. Viking has an ...
