Stockholm Cruise Reviews

Basically, I was not a cruise person, but was generously invited on this one. Since it fit my schedule I went, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations!!! The ship is beautifully appointed (down to plenty of bookshelves with great books to borrow), the staff was first class, the food was amazing, and the tours were extremely well-organized. Kudos to the always-charming Cruise ...

This was recommended by our travel agent because of Viking's reputation and the itinerary which included St Petersbourg and Norwegian Fjords with desirable "included" tours at each port. There were many choices of optional tours as well, such as the Gold Room at the Hermitage and the Russian Folk Music & Dance. Local tour guides were knowledgeable and we covered a lot of ground without feeling ...

Nothing was left to chance...the passengers were wined, dined, entertained and attended to in a warm, professional manner by every crew member from the Captain down to the "behind the scenes" deck hands. Anything that could be done to enhance our cruise experience...on board ship or in port was done. Had us dreaming about that "Silversea around the world cruises". Shore excursions were ...

We considered several other cruise options, but picked Silver Sea for several reasons. 1. the schedule suited our time frame. 2. I like the no tipping policy, although we did leave a gratuity for our cabin butler and his assistant. (their service was too good not to be recognized). I Like the smaller ship ( can't imagine being on a ship with three thousand plus other passengers). 3. However St ...

We sailed the Baltic on Silver Seas, and every thing was outstanding, including the variety, and quality of the food, and entertainment. All of the crew members seemed so happy, and were true professionals. Our butler was outstanding. He took care of our every need, listened to us very carefully, and followed up on everything we needed. The shows were great, and the cooking demonstration, and ...

My daughter and her husband wanted to join us on a Silver sea cruise. We chose the Baltic cruise because of the interesting ports. We loved the cruise and the service from all of the staff was wonderful! We have been on many cruises, on different cruise lines and Siversea is the best by far. The butler service is great and gives us the feeling that we are very special guests. The bartender ...

We were apprehensive about cruising - mainly because of the crowds found on the larger ships. My husband uses a wheelchair and the idea of navigating through crowds was daunting. However, the size of this ship was just perfect for us, as we had discovered on an earlier SilverSea cruise to Alaska. The staff were all very helpful and the accessibility for a power wheelchair user was very good ...

We been taking a lot of cruise vacations using different cruise lines. Now I can say that the Viking is the best cruise line.This if our second Viking Cruise experience. 2 years ago we been on a Viking River cruise. Its was awesome. That's why we decided to take Ocean cruise. Everything was excellent. This is new ship. All cabins have balcony and were kept very clean.. The food was so good. ...

We had never been to the Baltic countries and have had wonderful experiences on Viking river cruises. Also, the ship has no internal guest rooms. All cabins are shipside with decks. I also have always wanted to see St Petersburg, Russia. I was not disappointed. The lectures by experts in history, foreign relations, and cultures were fascinating and created wonderful fertilizer for ...

We picked this cruise because we liked the Itinerary and have never cruised the Baltic countries. The 93% percent approval rating for this cruise was why we chose Viking over Celebrity. The airport reception, transfer to the ship and embarkation was swift and efficient. Everything and all staff was wonderful. They were also very generous with the wine at lunch and dinner. The selection and quality ...
