We've always wanted to go on a Mediterranean cruise, this Viking cruise was almost perfect. Other that some bad weather issues which prevented us from visiting Monte Carlo, the cruise was everything we expected. The crew, the ship, the excursions, the food, the attention to health practices, the views, all exceptional. We enjoyed the entertainment, the gym and the spa services. We particularly ...
Two of my sisters, my oldest niece and I started our planning for this cruise almost two years to the day of sailing with the original embarkation date of March 2022 to celebrate my 65th birthday. But since COVID was still active, we decided to not risk it and cancelled our original dates and went in October. We could not have had a better time and we were not disappointed. We had a travel agent ...
We travelled From Piraeus - Dubai on Azamara Quest, from Oct 29 - Nov 15.
We boarded the Azamara Quest in Piraeus (Athens) and after we finally got onboard, we started to have a great time.
There was a delay of nearly 2hrs to board the ship, due to only 1 customs agent working at the Port.
We went straight to our safety demonstration once onboard, then off to the cabin , we were greeted ...
This was our third Viking cruise. We have always been pleased with all aspects of the cruise.
The size of the cruise ships and the limited amount of passengers have been attractive to us. The cabins are spacious and have enough closet / storage space.
The dining choices we very nice. The buffet was always well stocked . The restaurant had an elegant feel yet was very comfortable. Our group ...
We are big fans of the Viking Ocean Cruises. We loved every port and the excursions. The food was fantastic, loved the entertainment and the gym was great as well. We had already been on the same ship in the British West Indies and upgraded this trip to a Suite. We have two Viking Ocean Cruises booked for 2023. The cabins are very well planned and quiet and comfortable. Love to be able to do ...
We chose this cruise because the itinerary was 100% Greek history and archaeology at locations not focused on beaches. Also wanted to try the Viking Ocean cruises, as we have been very satisfied with the Viking River cruises. Both objectives were delivered way above expectations.
The Viking experience was as good as expected with the added benefit of a smaller ship. The dining and entertainment ...
Greece has been on our bucket list for a long time, and although our original sailing date was "adjusted" by the pandemic, we were happy to wait. The wait was certainly worth it. We are Viking junk)ies. This is was our sixth cruise. Four rivers and two oceans. They never get old.
As committed river cruisers we booked our first ocean cruise (Iconic Western Med) a few years ago with some fear and ...
This was our second ocean cruise with Viking (the first in 2019, Barcelona to Venice; 2014 Grand European River Cruise). As previously experienced, we thoroughly enjoyed our cruise, with fabulous ports-of-call, seeing something new to us each day, meeting the locals, and totally loving the entire staff of the Viking Sea! We always love Viking’s meals, however, we did notice a change since our ...
We picked Viking because we appreciated the adults-only, no-nonsense focus on the destinations. The small ship was comfortable and homey, and all food venues were excellent. Our pre-excursion to Capaddocia was a highlight of the trip, and we made friends who we stayed in touch with for the duration of the cruise and after. Cabins were top notch, well maintained and serviced. By pre-paying for ...
We chose Celestryal for the 3rd time as we have had 2 great cruises in the past. We love the Crystal she is a small compact ship, (yes, ship, she doesn't look like a floating warehouse with windows!) , with a fantastic crew. We wanted to relax and enjoy ourselves and that's just what happened. The first week there were only 400 passengers on board, capacity is 1200, so we had a very quiet, well ...
