Viking Ocean Venice Cruise Reviews

Getting to Venice was a long travel day. Viking had a guide to escort us through Heathrow and given our short layover there it was a lifesaver. Viking had representatives at the Venice airport to gather everyone together and to the buses to transport us to the ship. Checking into the ship was a breeze. We took a break and had a late lunch as the crew brought our luggage up to our cabin. ...

We had heard about Viking from several friends. This was our first time and we were blown away. The ship was beautiful, with modern, clean lines, beautiful woods, large windows and comfortable seating. The sweeping windows in the Explorer Lounge were dramatic. Everything was so well thought out. For example, books were located in several places around the ship (rather than in an library) so it was ...

We chose this cruise because we toured Rome, Florence, Tuscany and Venice prior to sailing. This cruise enabled us to see more of southern Italy and relax on the second half of the trip. Food was great, only had one off meal. The steak was chewy but the waiter was more than happy to replace with a different entree. Room service for breakfast every morning was on time, hot and delivered right to ...

River cruise of 2022 was cancelled by us due to low river levels. Transferred to Med cruise that took us from Venice to Barcelona. We were looking for at least 14 days. It was wonderful in all aspects. Viking family was attentive, welcoming and warm. Plenty of adult educational seminars on the ports we visited. Nightly entertainment was superb and with audience participation (if one so wished) ...

Have sailed on this same ship on the viking homeland. Such a beautiful ship. My husbands first time on viking & he said he would never travel on any other cruiseline except viking. They are so exceptional. All the restaurants are fabulous & staff can't say enough. We will definitely sail with them again. Love it that no children. Have been on other crusies where parents let their children run ...

The cruise was an unforgettable experience filled with opulence and elegance. From the moment we stepped on board, we were treated like royalty, with impeccable service and attention to detail. It was a perfect blend of relaxation and excitement. The stunning views from the ship's deck were breathtaking at sea and in the ports. We saw picturesque sunsets and beautiful coastal landscapes. The ...

We very much enjoyed the educational material, talks, guides and information. Next, we enjoyed that there were no kids running around. The food was excellent, especially the local food as we visited various cities. The ship was not crowded and seemed like we had sections of the ship to ourselves. The excursions were the right length, not to short or too long. We went on several additional ...

My husband selected this cruise prior to COVID so it was a long-awaited trip. The whole experience was exceptional! The ship is well-maintained, clean and provides a number of areas to enjoy the trip and the vistas. You don't feel like you are traveling with 900 + other passengers. The service and staff are friendly and meet your every need, without bothering you. We started going to the Living ...

We chose this cruise for our 25th wedding anniversary, and it was all we could have ever dreamed of. This was our first experience on a cruise, and Viking came highly recommended. Our friends did not steer us wrong. What a wonderful cruise! We enjoyed the atmosphere, our room, the service, the tours, the nightlife--everything! The customer service before and during the cruise was thorough and ...
