Cruise Highlight - the Amazing Panama Canal

We enjoyed every aspect of our experience on the Sky. Communication, food, enrichment, entertainment, cruise team, organization, room steward and service - all were very good. The activities offered were varied and inclusive - opportunities for those traveling alone, those in recovery, those of different religious faiths and lifestyles. The staff did a great job of organizing and disembarking ...

The wife and I just returned from an extremely enjoyable 10 days aboard Viking Sky, traveling from Ft. Lauderdale to Panama City, Panama. While this was our first ocean cruise in over 15 years, (our previous was on another cruise line), it got us very interested in doing this type of travel more frequently in the future. The crew and staff onboard our ship, to a person, were beyond friendly and ...

Going through the Panama Canal was bucket list item for me, and since we had a great experience on Viking several years ago (Barcelona to Rome) decided to book again. First all the pluses(and they are mostly pluses) Viking has top notch customer service, both pre boarding and on the ship. Incredibly friendly staff. Really nice touches like the covered patio area on the upper deck to shade ...

Given some of the negativity about Connie I was somewhat apprehensive. I am not sure what some folks expect but I have to say this is a wonderful ship with terrific staff. The food was excellent and whilst the staterooms are due an upgrade there was certainly nothing wrong with our Aqua Veranda cabin. The public areas are immaculate and there is always plenty of space to sit down and relax. ...

We chose this cruise because Panama Canal was on our bucket list, but I won't go on a ship with over 1000 guests. I was interested in trying viking because we'd already booked an expedition to Antarctica, but mostly, the itinerary and length of the cruise suited me - a full crossing WITHOUT days of sailing up west coast of Mexico, where we've been many times. Also, in the lowest grade cabin, the ...

This cruise was chosen last minute due to an itinerary change on the Caribbean Amazon cruise I originally booked. I was not happy with the itinerary change offered just 1 week prior to planned departure. Loved the Mars ship and all the variety of areas to sit and enjoy reading a book or playing cards. Nice to be able to find quiet areas to relax! The stateroom was especially roomy with ...

We originally chose this cruise as Panama Canal was on "Bucket List". Wanted full crossing in original canal. Also, won't go on large ship anyway. (Beware - most of larger ships go through new locks just completed in 2016 - less history). Also, we don't like all of the stuff Viking doesn't have - gambling, hard sells and add-ons. So we decided to give it a try. Here are our thoughts ...

We cruised from Ft. Lauderdale to Panama Canal and back to Ft. Lauderdale. The embarkation was very easy and smooth. No complaints about that. We had stops in Montego Bay, Cartagena, Limon and Grand Cayman. We could have skipped Montego Bay and Cartagena. The guide on the excursion in Montego Bay just spoke about the poverty on the island. Not what we were looking for. Cartagena excursion ...

We have cruised many times on all the mainstream lines, but this was our first time on Oceania. We loved it and have already booked another one. The Marina is a beautiful ship. The sculptures, the art work, the furnishings are all interesting and tastefully done. Our fellow passengers were a fine group of people, well travelled but not snooty. We loved that there were few announcements and no ...

Captain Bas van Dreumel was at the helm on our cruise. You can always tell great management when the crew is happy and laughing, service is great and the ship is spotless. That was our experience on the Rotterdam. 5 stars is based on that experience alone. The itinerary included some ports that I will never return to, some food I didn't enjoy and entertainment that wasn't...but cruises are ...
