Bergen Cruise Reviews

(There was not a choice for Norway or Iceland on the list) The trip started in Bergen Norway, spending one night there, then sailing, and stopping at four ports along the way. One complimentary shore excursion is included in every port. That is, if they are not SOLD OUT out before you have the chance to make your selection. Extra paid excursions are available, most of which were too much for us ...

My husband and I had long wanted to explore the North Atlantic as we both have ancestors from that region. We have traveled with Viking before and experienced exceptional tours, service and experiences. This trip was planned for May of 2020, and of course we had to sit back and wait with the rest of the world until science could provide protection from the COVID virus. Though we were impatient ...

We were unhappy with our last Viking cruise right before Covid to Australia/NZ. Poor food quality, lacking in evening entertainment, difficulty getting on the ship when our plane arrived late (which Viking Air booked) so were cautious this time around. It could not have been better. Everything was great. Beautiful new ship, excellent dining, good excursions. I still think evenings are a bit of a ...

This was our 1st Viking Cruise and we were very happy with our overall experience. The service throughout our time onboard was amazing! We've been on other cruises, and never have we had the personal attention as we did onboard the Viking Mars. I have Celiac Disease and I never had to worry as all the waiters and chefs were aware of my dietary restrictions. The cleanliness throughout the entire ...

We chose this cruise because of Hurtigruten's reputation for providing the best and most authentic trip to the North Cape of Europe. We really liked the idea that we would be travelling on a "working boat" which was still an important link for many of the more remote communities on the Norwegian north coast. The trip was well beyond our expectations. The boat was very comfortable, with our ...

The Viking cruise line gives you a 10 out of 10 service I felt so special and that’s fantastic Cruise. They make you feel like you are number one. I also had special dietary needs and they went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied above and beyond. Also the excursions were very nice and organized as well. They also picked you up from the airport and brought you to your ...

We had heard good reviews about Viking from our friends so we decided to give it a try - we were on two prior cruises with other lines. We picked the Viking Homelands cruise after having two prior cruises cancelled due to Covid. We added Iceland as a pre-cruise excursion and were glad we did. We enjoyed all of our port of calls but wished Finland had been included on the itinerary. The ship was ...

We chose this cruise in 2019 after our first experience with Viking -- a River Cruise in Provence. We thought it would be a good way to see Scandinavia, where we had never been before. It would also have probably been our only chance to see St. Petersburg. After two covid cancellations we were pleased that we finally got to go, even without St. Petersburg (cancellation of which was a ...

We choose this cruise due to the variety of destinations. Originally our itinerary included St. Petersburg but and another major stop but due to political reasons we had two very small islands (Bornholm and Mariehamn) added which were a disappointment. Now for the good news! The ship size was very manageable. There is an excellent variety of restaurant selections. Breakfast can be buffet or ...

We selected this because of the itinerary and because we wanted to try out Viking. We had never been to Scandinavia and the Viking trip seemed a good way of scouting out the area. We liked that the cruise spent two nights in Bergen, Oslo and Stockholm which gave us more time to explore these cities. We would have liked another day in Copenhagen but we are going back there this summer. We met a ...
