This was our first Viking Ocean Cruise and it won't be our last. The food and service were great and we got to see a part of the world that was on our bucket list. We especially enjoyed getting to know a few of the staff members who really worked hard to make our time traveling perfect. A few things to know which would have helped us out would be to sign up in passenger services at the beginning of the cruise for the two shows that are staged by in the smaller venue and also sign up for the kitchen ad bridge tours at the same time. By the tie those shows and tours are advertised they were almost full. We didn't get in to the shows but were able to get the last few tickets for the bridge and galley tours.
The included tours at each port were informative and well organized. If a local guide refuses to use the speaker system be sure to try to get them to change their mind. In any case, let Viking know about the guide.
We enjoyed our time on board the Viking Sky and 80% of our tours were excellent.
