My overall rating as a 4 has mostly to do with the excursions. This trip was a typical 5 Star Viking voyage and through no fault of Viking this area just doesn't have the most exciting excursions. The Panama Canal was the highlight. Viking is still watching out for everyones safety as all the crew were masked all of the time. Our cabin attendants would have our room ready by the time we came back from breakfast which we thought was amazing. The food was excellent and on a few days a special lunch was served by the aft pool. Viking cruises just tick all of our boxes. Not a crowded ship, staff always going out of their way to help and the speciality restaurants are just amazing. We were loyal customers with another popular cruise line but Viking has stolen our hearts and minds. We also have sailed on the Viking River cruises and they are equally as good as the ocean.
