After my wife and I enjoyed a Viking river cruise, we wanted to see what the ocean cruise was like. The Ocean Cruise on the Viking Sea exceeded our expectations. The ship was very nice with the decorative appointments. My wife said the cabin must have been designed by a women because of the space, storage, décor, and layout of the room. The bathroom was spacious and included all needed amenities. Dining was superior at all restaurants, especially Manfredi's Italian Restaurant. The service was exceptional....seen when needed and unseen when not needed. The shore excursions were excellent. The included and additional tours were well thought out to give an excellent overview of the port culture and history. We took several additional tours and were not disappointed in our selections. All tour directors and drivers were knowledgeable, informative and courteous. We have booked another cruise on the new Viking Sky and expect another fantastic cruise on another fantastic ship.
