Viking Atla Review
Rating by category
Additional details
We had always avoided cruises, thinking of massive ships and massive crowds overwhelming the arrival ports. Many of my (retired) business school classmates suggested that we try a Viking river cruise--smaller, older, affluent demographic but most importantly the quality of the on-shore excursions. We got exactly what we expected--about 180 people, mostly USA with 8-10 Canadians and 6-8 Brits in the mix.
The ship was exactly as shown on the website, food onboard was very good and evening/entertainment time was fun.
The highlights of the trip were the on-shore experiences.
Cabin Review
Veranda Stateroom
Exactly as shown on the website--good Scandinavian design. A little tight for space, but nothing we couldn't handle. Very well-designed with plenty of storage space in a small area. Bed was very comfortable. Couldn't hear our neighbors at all.
Bathroom was big enough for one person at a time. Enjoyed sitting on the small veranda in the afternoons and evenings when under way and watching the farms and villages slip by. Cabin service was outstanding--cleaned up and fresh towels each day if we needed them.
