The itinerary was unbelievable ,to see So many countries ! The ship was one of Vikings new small ship ocean liners. A really beautifully layed out ship. The crew was exceptional. I have been on Seaborne and Silver Seas ships which were good but this Viking ship and all aspects of the cruise were exceptional. Of course everyone raves about the food on cruises but this ship made all others pale in comparison. The daily selection were varied and the specialty pool side brunch was outstanding. The one issue encountered a number of times was poorly organization and departure for the shore excursions. I understand this was a new route for this ship and excursion crew so I would expect this to improve ,I hope quickly.
I would only cruise on mid size liners and River cruise ships , the thought of a Cruise on a mega ship would not be anything I would consider. I had been on Grand Circle on a River Cruise ,Moscow to St Petersburg and had encountered a Viking sip when we were rafted at a port which peeked my interest in Viking. I would have to say Viking sets the standard with all others far behind. Bravo Viking!!
We were in a veranda penthouse cabin I believe. It was comfortable ,muted decor.
