Viking is a stellar organization and we had complete confidence that this cruise would exceed our expectations. Viking's attention to detail is unmatched. It started at the airport with Viking staff making sure we found our way to the bus that would transport us to the ship. They literally had human breadcrumbs lined up throughout the airport, pointing the way to the bus. It was awesome. Once we arrived at the ship, they greeted us with refreshments. Our cabin was very roomy and well equipped. Our veranda had two very comfortable chairs and a decent size table. The bed and linens were so comfortable I thought I was in a hotel. The bathroom and shower were quite roomy which was a surprise for a ship. The restaurant selections were varied and the open seating was very welcomed. It was fun to either have a dinner for two or join a party of eight. The food was fabulous. There was a great selection of excursions and the nightly entertainment was fun. The cruise was worth every penny.
