Wonderful Mediterranean Cruise

Review for a Mediterranean Cruise on Viking Venus

This was a wonderful trip although I would hesitate to go back during the Christmas/Ephiphany holiday as we lost two stops along the way due to the holiday. Having said that, Viking made it very nice to celebrate on the ship. We had a nice Christmas, a fun New Year’s Eve and an amazing spread on New Year’s Day. I would not take any other cruise line again after sailing with Viking. This was ...

We wanted to focus on antiquities from Athens through Florence. We continued on through Barcelona to get a taste of southern France, in particular. Viking provided the perfect setting on its beautiful ship and with its exceptional staff. All details of our daily excursions were taken care of, and returning each afternoon for tea time, spa relaxation, excellent dining options and fun nightly ...

Husband and I joined his parents for the first Viking Cruise (for all 4 of us). We sailed on the Mediterranean Antiquities journey and had a wonderful time. We picked early morning “upgraded” (paid) excursions with one exception (Monte Carlo, included tour), and our guides hit it out of the park 9/10 trips. The service on Viking is excellent and unobtrusive, and the ship decor and comfort level ...

We were interested in this cruise because we had never been to Greece or Turkey and were excited to follow the journey of the Apostle Paul. We booked a guaranteed verandah cabin and let Viking choose our particular stateroom and were thrilled to have been upgraded to the 6th deck in a lovely midship deluxe verandah cabin. Our stateroom, the service and food and beverage choices and the entire ship ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

A friend of mine booked this cruise and asked me if I wanted to go. It was a bit spur of the moment but I don't regret my decision one bit. From the moment we boarded the ship, we were greeted with smiles and friendly, helpful staff. We nicknamed Paul (our stateroom steward) our Genie because of his ability to anticipate our needs. We quickly "made friends" with the wonderful people of the ...

We had heard a lot about Viking cruises from friends but had never been on one until this cruise (had cruised with other companies many times). The booking process was a little rocky because I received an email offer the day after I booked, and Viking was originally unwilling to honor the offer. After some discussion, they did so. We had Viking book our air and this went smoothly except we had ...

This is our first trip with Viking and we enjoyed the trip very much! We definitely will consider Viking again for future trips! The only sad part was that we could not visit Israel. Overall, Viking is very organized on the logistics for customers and the entire trip. The staffs (including the waiters/waitress) who served the food as well as the customers are very attentive, polite and friendly. ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

This was our first cruise, an 11 night Eastern Mediterranean itinerary, & we booked it for a great price without knowing too much about the industry at first. Reading other reviews of the Epic on this site we were slightly worried, but we needn't have been - the ship is fantastic, & we couldn't have asked for better. Looking at the detail of others' criticisms it seems many of the issues being ...

The service was impeccable. We felt at home as staff remembered our names and greeted us at every turn. The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The entertainment was exceptional especially the Viking singers and musicians. It was nice to see other entertainment but the Viking singers and musicians were fantastic. The food was delicious in all of the venues. The staff in the Restaurant ...

We chose the cruise initially because we were interested in the religious sites, especially Israel. Due to the ongoing conflict, Israel was removed from the itinerary and Malta was added. Due to the weather, we had several changes to the itinerary but we were pleased with the Captain's decisions. He also kept us informed about why we needed to change and frankly, the change from Naples to ...
