This is our second cruise with Celestyal, and will not be our last. The staff from the Celestyal Crystal had transferred to the Celestyal Journey, and we were delighted to be remembered by many of them, which increased our cruise enjoyment.
Originally a three week cruise to start with the Three Continents, which was changed to a new itinerary, due to the conflict in Gaza. For the first week, ...
Our cruise was amazing. Everything Viking does from how immaculate the ship and rooms are to the free excursions in every port are top notch. Because of the Mar's size and the much lower amount of passengers it can accompany we never felt crowded anywhere on the ship. There were so many places onboard inside and out to have quiet time to yourself. The ship's crew were all very polite and provided ...
I will recommend Viking River Cruises to everyone. We were treated like royalty. Viking went above and beyond, as I became quite ill during travel to Budapest. Viking rep Vicktor was our guardian angel, as he called a doctor our first night in the hotel, got my meds, called an ambulance the following morning, sat with us at the hospital for EIGHT hours, and made sure we connected with Mario from ...
Excellent cruise from Rio to Lisbon. Very friendly staff. Atmosphere is upscale-casual: Few men wore sport jackets at any time. Ship was about 3/4 full, with almost all passengers being in their fifties and up. There were no children. Large mix of nationalities (US, UK, Canada, Australia, etc.). It got a bit rocky towards the end of the cruise and the captain chose to skip the Madeira port of ...
We loved this cruise. I loved the beautiful cities we toured and the tour guides were exceptional. The ship is luxurious and the crew were warm, helpful and good at what they did. Our hostess Sue, was amazing. She handled every situation calmly and professionally. She was fun to listen to as she shared our schedules for the next day. So very helpful. Our room was small but very efficient. The bed ...
Vilking staff were so helpful kind and efficient. Really wonderful. Food was well presented and consistently good. Regional dishes/wine/beer are included when possible. Don’t forget to ask for regional -included wine or beer.. as it changes. Many meals include both menu ordering and buffet. They individually cared for those with dietary restrictions. Tip: (just ask) I forgot to order my salad ...
We were on the first voyage for the year. Everything was seamless in the way it functioned! My Cousin referred me to Viking, based on her experiences with Viking in the past. I loved unpacking once for a 2 week vacation in the spring, yet traveling through the heart of Europe! It’s like staying on a floating 5 star hotel!
Only negative thing I can say is that laundry, for some reason, now ...
Viking and their entire staff, from booking, to choosing excursions far exceeded our expectations. ‘My Viking’ app creates a nearly seamless way to handle all of our details. The cruise itself was a joy from start to finish with every detail handled. I am thrilled to highly recommend Viking to everyone. Our cabin was spacious and provided everything you could possibly want.
One of the ...
We went in search of the Northern Lights, which we saw briefly, but discovered so many magical worlds. Before embarking on a Northern Lights cruise you need to understand the reality of searching for the Northern Lights (it’s not like social media would lead you to believe) and adjust your expectations. Still, the hunt is exciting and completely worth it. You’d be hard pressed to do better than ...
To be honest I did worry about having an inside cabin on a 17 day transatlantic cruise. BUT I was so wrong to even think that I felt like royalty the staff I must mention their names ! Yatish, squid and anchor bar service amazing happy to always help always remembered my name and cabin also Jacinto same bar always so helpful, Angela in the really lovely more personal nonnas restaurant once again ...
