We sailed on the maiden voyage of the Viking Sea starting in Istanbul, Turkey and ending in Stokholm, Sweden. This is a beautiful ship. Viking has really included so many extra features to ensure a fabulous time. The crew was outstanding in that you could really feel that they genuinely loved their jobs and did everything possible to make our voyage a once-in-a-lifetime event! The ports of call were so interesting and the included excursions were outstanding!
Viking provides Enrichment Lectures by experts in various fields (history, geography, music, the arts, etc) which enhanced each segment of the journey. All of the rooms are suites with outside verandas. The accommodations are very comfortable and beautiful. There are many places on the ship to find a quiet place to read or enjoy a nice glass of wine. The pools are very nice as well. We loved the ship and crew! We highly recommend Viking!
