This cruise took us to many places that we hadn't been to before. And not having to pack and unpack a suitcase at each port was a real plus! We found the ship to be immaculate and the staff to be so very friendly and accommodating. The food and dining options on this cruise were wonderful! We also found the entertainment in the theater to be outstanding. We especially enjoyed the daily presentations that were given regarding the port we would be embarking on each day, in addition to the historian and astronomer's presentations. It was nice to be able to view these presentations on the TV set in our cabin if we couldn't see them in person. The classical music in the atrium, plus the rock music and dancing in the lounge each night provided nice entertainment options. Viking does a great job of handling passengers to and from its scheduled excursions at each of the ports. We liked having a Viking representative by our side from the time we got off the airplane in Venice to the time we got off our bus at the Barcelona airport. We're looking forward to our next Viking cruise, which we've already booked to Australia and New Zealand!
Our cabin had plenty of space for both storage and comfort. It was not confining, at all. Our cabin was kept replenished and clean each and every day. Also, the bathroom and shower were quite spacious and supplies and towels were replenished very frequently. Our housekeeping staff was wonderful!
