I chose this cruise because I love to cruise and had read great reviews about viking and its ships. I was not disappointed! The cabin was spacious and well appointed. The service was awesome. The food was delicious. We were treated excellently. We had a great time, great activities on board, lots of interesting things to do on board and if you just wanted to relax and have quite time you ...

After a wonderful Grand European Tour River Cruise on Viking Skadi this past May we decided to try a Viking Ocean Cruise. This was our 11th Cruise overall and one of the best. The ship with ~980 possible passengers had only 582 and crew ratio was all most 1:1. Warm, inviting public spaces in favorites Explorers Louge and the Living Room Atrium. Food was delicious, hot & well served. Speciality ...

The ship was absolutely beautiful; great size - not too large; the crew friendly and so helpful; the programs good and the cast friendly and talented. The food choices varied and excellent. The land tours were good and educational. My pursers were attentive and friendly. The towns visited were incredible showing a great itinerary. My only regret is that we didn't have more time in Quebec and ...

We had never cruised with Viking before but seeing photos of their new Ocean ships, we fell in love with the aesthetic and the designs of the ships. First impressions on board, the staff were so friendly and helpful, immediately had a glass of wine in hand and we were off to a great trip. We were on the 8th floor in a deluxe Veranda Cabin. First time having a balcony on a cruise and loved it. ...

This was the best cruse we have ever been on. Beginning at the time we boarded until we very reluctantly disembarked we could not have been more pleased. The service was impeccable. The food unbelievable. The overall experience was most satisfying and rewarding. Someone asked us about the food on board. Our answer is imagine the best place you have ever eaten - well, we ate there 3 meals a ...

We chose this cruise to try out Viking Ocean Cruises. We have been on 35+ Princess and 1 RCL ocean cruises. We took a Viking River cruise last year and loved it so we wanted to see how they were for ocean cruises. For us, we loved this cruise. Embarkation was easy just needed ticket and passport. Only a little delay as the agent had trouble with his handheld passport scanner. Towelettes and ...

Wanted to try a Viking Ocean Cruise. In 2007 we took a Viking River Cruise in Russia which was not great.......the ship, food, cabin, etc, were in general BAD. The destinations were most interesting but as a river cruise experience, we have not been on one since. This Ocean cruise was GREAT except for some really rough weather. The programs and lectures were very interesting, frequent and ...

My husband and I were disgruntled Royal Caribbean customers: the service got worse as the ships got bigger. Our last RCI ship had 6,000 passengers (Viking carries 980 max) and 17 decks. Since positive reviews and chat rooms pointed to Viking, we booked the 14 night "Around the Caribbean" which covered Bermuda, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, Curacao, Jamaica, Aruba, and Grand Cayman. We did an excursion at ...

I have been on many cruises over the last 30 years and this was by far the best. The food was amazing. Interestingly, the main dining room was better than the specialty restaurants. The service from the crew was attentive without being obstrusive. The ship is gorgeous with a number of innovative features like the snow grotto and the tropical bird sounds in the public restrooms. The "included" ...
