Sailed with Viking before, and this was our first ocean cruise. We liked the itinerary, and knew that the cruise and everything that was part of it, would be great. Having a balcony in our stateroom was good for having the perfect spot for photos, as we approached each port.
Everything from the food to any services on the cruise were excellent. We liked being able to try the different restaurants onboard. The Chef's Table was especially interesting, and a new dining experience for us. The Italian restaurant became a favorite, and we dined there several times. We also enjoyed having afternoon tea. The teas and especially the treats were perfect.
We enjoyed the excursions and felt that we were able to experience a good overview and flavor of each city that we visited.
