This was our first time on Viking. We enjoyed everything start to finish. Our check-in was quick and easy; we were granted immediate access to the ship and to lunch, which was greatly appreciated because we were both famished and fatigued from the long flight. Our bags were delivered promptly to our gorgeous state room. It was obvious that every item in our room and throughout the ship was carefully selected to meet the needs of the passengers. Nothing selected was pretentious or ostentation. It was serene. The colors and quality of our state room and the ship were perfect to unwind during the day and to sleep soundly during the night. The entire ship was new, well planned with many windowed and places to relax alone and/or mingle with others. We also loved the wide variety of choices presented. This led to high quality and delicious breakfasts, lunches and dinners. We also loved the variety of ports of call. At each port we experienced a well organized, informative, exciting and fun guided tour.

Each member of the crew was equally fantastic as well. We definitely plan to sail again, again and again on Viking!
