My wife and I had never been on a cruise for several reasons, but the primary reason was the large number of passengers on the typical ship.
We decided to try Viking for our first cruise because of their smaller ships and they were all new. as of 2015. Our cruise on Viking Sky was its first voyage with paying passengers.
We cannot say enough good things about the experience with this company so I will not try in the space provided here. All aspects of the cruise from on board activities, food and beverage, to shore excursions and disembarkation and embarkation were excellent.We found the dining choices to be excellent both for variety and quality
