Bergen Cruise Reviews

Chose this cruise because of our positive experience with Viking River Cruises and to explore new to us regions. We were expecting the dining to be good, but it exceeded that. We were especially surprised at how much we enjoyed the Chefs Table (ended up booking three times). We tended to eat at the ala carte venues for dinner and the casual options for breakfast and lunch. I am not a fan of ...

We chose this cruise in 2018 for sailing in 2020. We had to extend our wait due to Covid. We lost St. Petersburg due to Poopooism but Viking made up for that with a couple of stops in Denmark and Mariehamm. I'd go there, again. We really enjoyed Bergen, Oslo and Copenhagen; great cities. My favorite city was Gdansk. Incredible people and history! Berlin was a bit of a disappointment. We were left ...

We wanted to treat ourselves for our 50th Wedding Anniversary so we booked this cruise for 2021. We also wanted to see the lands of some of our ancestors and we were not disappointed. Since we did not want an FCC, we decided to rebook the cruise before it was cancelled by Viking.Due to a decrease in the airline prices from our original booking, we were able to use this money to add a pre-extension ...

My initial trepidation vanished within minutes of my arrival on board. Cleanliness, efficiency and organization were the keys to a remarkable voyage on the Viking Jupiter last month. Chef Martin was the first member of the staff I met that day, and, as a foodie, he certainly whetted my appetite as he regaled me with the menus he had prepared. Every member of the staff and crew were ...

We chose this cruise because it had ports of call in countries we have not yet been able to visit. Unfortunately, we were not able to visit Estonia, Russia and Helsinki. This did not deter us from having a great time at the ports we did visit. We would have liked to not have the two additional nights in Oslo as we did the pre-cruise in Oslo. However it did give us the opportunity to see the ...

My husband’s grandmother was Swedish and I wanted him to see how beautiful Stockholm is. The added ports of Bornholm and Mariehamn were a nice addition as I would not have picked those as places to go. We started in Bergen and ended in Stockholm. As we hit each successive port there was more and more sunshine. We almost exclusively did the included tours and I thought they were great! The one tour ...

Having loved every Viking River Cruise we've ever been on, (and having been disappointed with other ocean cruise lines,) we decided to put Viking to the test. We could not be happier. Viking is a class act in every way! We have been on less expensive cruises, but by the time they nickel and dime you to death, it comes out about even. Viking gives you a free excursion at every ...

Friends had raved about their Viking Cruise, so our expectations were high. All expectations were met. The staff was friendly and attentive. All appeared to love their job. The food choices were phenomenal and quality the same. The ship was immaculate 24/7. The spa was an incredible feature with steam, sauna and snow room. I had a great massage and should have had another. The shore excursions ...

My wife is of Scandinavian descent so we wanted to see the fjords of Norway and touch Denmark. We were able to cruise up close to very small villages and experience the friendly atmosphere of the country. The small cruise ship is the perfect size. The food selection is incredible and service is top notch. Service on Viking ships is more personal than any other cruise line we have been on. ...

We have been on several Viking river cruise and enjoyed them all, decided to try their Ocean cruise line. Again it was exceptional! The ship was very clean, the staff was very attentive to all our needs. The food and the different dining rooms each had different cuisine all excellent. The service and crew were A+. We visited six different ports all interesting and gave you a well rounded flavor of ...
