Our family of 9 opted for a destination Christmas, and for most of us it was our first cruise! We spent a week on the ship and enjoyed Key West, Belize, and Merida and Progresso in the Yucatan, Mexico. I'm spoiled, Viking is the best. Excellent service, great excursions, the food is fabulous. Do make sure to bring cash on the excursions, however, needed for locker and water shoe rental, tips, etc. Bonuses: NO kids under 18 (can't say enough about this, made for a very relaxing and peaceful cruise), small ship size. We were able to develop friendships by the end of the trip. Crew was very dedicated to making sure our needs were met, dinner service was fun and delicious. The ship was kept immaculate. Thoroughly enjoyed the on board team trivia games, shuffleboard, infinity pool and sauna. Will definitely cruise Viking again, great value for the money.
Perfect, loved the private balcony.
We chose to rent a golf cart and cruise the island on our own.
