This was our first cruise EVER, and what an wonderful experience it was. From the minute we got to Barcelona and met our coach to be transferred we were treated so well! Our room - Penthouse Veranda Suite 6013 was beautiful, Starboard side but it did not matter the way we docked in ports. Our dining experiences were over the top! We loved "The Restaurant." The Pool Grill had the Best Burger I have had in years! We made a point to visit every single restaurant on board. We also had reservations at The Chef's table and Manfredi's - SO Delicious! In the Spa we indulged in the hydro-facial and a massage! Both were exceptional! We had excursions most every day in the different ports! Our favorites were the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Monte Carlo on our own & A Day in Tuscany. The staff on Viking Sky were so professional and took such good care of us! We will definitely cruise with Viking again!
