We have had past Viking cruises and knew that this one would also be exceptional. While on the cruise we also booked yet another. We enjoy cruises that are adult customers - we do not want casinos or fancy dining and dancing. Viking gives us extraordinary food, always with the local area touches and lectures and programs on board that entertain and educate about the area we are cruising. The ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

We have waited for a long time to take this bucket list trip to Alaska! The smaller number of passengers on the ship was important to us and we had heard so many positive recommendations for Viking. We selected both the cruise and the inland extension as we have wanted to se Denali National Park for quite sometime. All accommodations we first class as the cabin was a great size and we enjoyed ...

I used funds from a Viking trip to Iceland cancelled during Covid. Very expensive but have never had better service from the staff on a cruise ship. The guest lecturers were amazing and so much more accessible given the small ship atmosphere. We liked the stop in Valdez which only a few cruise lines offer. The food was the best we’ve had on. a ship. Drinks, shore excursions and specialty ...

We chose this cruise because the ship was smaller than many of the other cruises, the great reputation of Viking, and the ports it was sailing to. We were not disappointed. The cabins are well thought out and were perfect for the amount of time that we spent in them. The food was outstanding. From the World Cafe to the three sit-down restaurants, the staff and food was excellent. Any need we had ...

We wanted to cruise the Alaskan Inside passage on a ship with fewer passengers and quality service. The Viking Orion is a beautiful ship in perfect condition. There is an understated elegance on the Orion with beautiful art and artifacts. Our crew members were friendly and professional and always ready to help. The food was very good with plenty of choices at every meal. The excursions were ...

This cruise was the culmination of a lifelong interest in the glacial geography, flora, fauna, and indigenous cultures of the Alaska panhandle. It certainly did not disappoint! From the active glacial fields and plentiful marine fauna of Seward’s Kenai Fjords and Resurrection Bay to the frequent interactions with living members the native Tlingit civilization to be found in Haines, Sitka, Juneau, ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

Alaska was a bucket list trip. Saw a lot of animals: lots of brown bears, humpback whales, orca, sea otters, eagles, caribou, etc. Ship room was great. Staff from housekeeping to restaurant were very attentive. Evening entertainment was great. Food at both the buffets and reservation-only dining rooms was wonderful. Great choices not matter your preference. Highly recommend the cruise and ...

Three couples went on this cruise together; one of them already had it scheduled and talked the other two (including us) into going. We were fortunate to have ideal weather for the entire 10 days. Everything about this cruise was top-notch. The service aboard Orion was excellent and very personalized. For example, we established a regular routine for dinner and always arrived at 6 PM when the ...

From the time you embark to disembark, your experience will be amazing with Viking. The Alaska 10 day itinerary was perfect, leaving Seward and ending in Vancouver. The Orion and crew are exceptional. I wish we had gotten this review earlier so we could mentioned every one…. From the cabin attendants, spa, dining, to the bar tenders, everyone brought their A games and provided amazing ...

Decadence of a ship with the beauty of nature

Can't beat an Alaskan Cruise. The scenery is unbelievable. This was our 5th Alaskan Cruise and we've booked another. The Orion was decadent in the room, the Restaurant, the Cafe, or the forward lounge. The food was great. We loved our aft suite, watching the ship's wake. The wrap-around deck allowed great views as we sailed the glaciers and the fjords. The cabin stewards were super, and all ...
