I chose the cruise because of ancestors' homelands were around the Baltic & Norway and Viking had an excellent reputation.
I never dreamed the experience would be so beautiful. The Ship's decor was wonderfully thought out with Viking and nautical themes. The spaces were so designed that there were many cozy areas to relax, read, visit with others. The Crew, no matter how busy they were, never failed to smile and greet you as you went by. The Tour choices were numerous and well planned with very knowledgeable guides. You could do as much or little to none of them of course. Our Room was spacious enough for the two of us even though adjusted for 2 twin beds. We even took pictures of the bathroom because we were so impressed by the Euro features. I've been in hospitals and rehab facilities that weren't as immaculate as the Viking ship. The excitement has not worn off after a month being home. I'm encouraging everyone I know to go with Viking.
