Stockholm to Europe - British Isles & Western Cruise Reviews

We chose the cruise because of the destination and because we could stay for 3 back-to-back cruises shortly after 2 back-to-back cruises on the NCL Star. We have cruised with NCL many times and our experience this time was very consistent. The staff, especially some of the key managers, are wonderful friendly and very good at their jobs (for the most part). There are some who didn't get the memo ...

We chose the cruise for the itinerary .....and also for St. Petersburg. This is our first cruise with Oceania and we have already booked another cruise for next year! So with that being said we can only say good things about Oceania Nautica. There is nothing negative to say....albeit the ship is being refurbished in a few months but the ship was still beautiful. Our stateroom was roomy, the bed ...

This is our first Ocean cruise experience and it was absolutely wonderful! Our cabin was roomy and I was impressed about how the storage space was designed. The bed was really comfy and the bathroom was large for a stateroom. Although electrical outlets in the bathroom were only for razors or toothbrushes, there were ample 220 and 110 outlets in the main cabin. I really enjoyed having a port to ...

Chose this cruise mainly to see St Petersburg, Estonia, Stockholm and Copenhagen. Excellent to have the overnights in Stockholm and Copenhagen and especially two nights in St Petersburg. We found both the embarkation and disembarkation went well for us and I didn't hear anyone we spoke to complaining about it. Found the ship easy to navigate and liked that there are not too many people on ...

We had heard great things about Viking Ocean cruises and we had always wanted to see Scandinavia and Northern Europe. The Viking Homelands cruise was our post-retirement celebration and it was well worth it! We saw 8 countries and 11 ports of call over 15 days. We saw historic cities we had always wanted to see such as Stockholm, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, Berlin and Copenhagen and we had three ...

We had done the Grand European River Cruise in 2018 and we were so impressed with Viking that we decided to try one of their ocean cruises. We liked the itinerary of the Nordic Homelands cruise and it did not disappoint. Every port was a great experience and the included tours brought each city to life with information about their history. We spent an additional 5 days in Stockholm before the ...

We had taken a Viking River cruise and loved. I wasn't sure what to expect on there smaller ocean ships. It was and incredible surprise. They offers so much entertainment and the staff was prefect, after several days you were on a first name basis, every staff member spoke English which was very nice, you wanted for absolutely nothing. Port excursions were excellent and well organized. Being 67 I ...

This was a great experience! The itinerary was excellent as were the tour guides. We took the included tour in each port and then some of the optional tours that you pay for. The guides on the included tours were as good as, and in some cases even better than, the guides on the optional tours. The main restaurant and Manfredi's were our favorites. We did not enjoy our meal at the Chef's ...

We had heard from friends and read reviews about Viking Ocean cruises. I wanted to go to Norway and visit my cousins I had never met after the cruise ended in Bergen. I also love the history of Russia so we thought the Viking Homelands cruise was the best for us. And all came true for us. We loved our Explorer Suite. We did have our cabin steward remove a couple of chairs. He was amazing and made ...

We both have Baltic roots so this was a homecoming of sorts. Viking offers the right combination of entertainment and educational activities for us. Entertainment was geared toward baby-boomer generation which was fine for us but may not be for everyone. We would have liked more opportunity to dance (i.e., larger venue). We learned a lot from the lectures. The combination of several cities and ...
