We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and we loved Viking River cruises and decided to try the Viking Ocean Cruise. We were pleasantly surprised and the ship was everything we like, Small Ship, No Casino, No young children and free style dining. Embarkation was efficient and hassle free the best we have ever had. Disembarkation was not as good because of all the walking and climbing stairs, but that was due to the port and customs not Viking. The Crew was excellent and very friendly. Entertainment was varied and quite professional. The chamber music trio did a great job of playing relaxing music in the living room.

The ship including the cabins was very clean. The food was average but I liked the local cuisine that was offered every evening. The poorest part of the whole experience was the tour in Cartagena, Columbia, very disorganized and poor guides. the whole cruise was very relaxing and we met a lot of wonderful people.
