Viking Ocean Viking Jupiter Luxury Cruises Reviews

Pros We enjoyed the ship and the atmosphere. The furnishing were tasteful and quite comfortable. Surprisingly we enjoyed the entertainment. It was fun and not over the top. I was not expecting it to be as good as it was. The service and attitudes were really great. The Chef's table was very good. The cabin design especially the bathroom was exceptional. Room service breakfasts ...

What we liked: Everything Viking did was great! The ship was modern, spotless, right-sized....just an overall wonderful ship. The staff and crew were very friendly and always willing to help. We always found something good to eat and gained the customary poundage. The destinations were fabulous on this itinerary. What we didn't like as much: Sea days were somewhat boring. Yes, we could ...

This was our third viking cruise, (the first two were euro rivers,) and second ocean cruise ever. I appreciate everything Viking does and tries to be. A quieter, more intimate experience with cultural enrichment and classical entertainment. The loud, roudy ocean liners with casinos, kiddos, and cigarette smoke are so not our scene. Viking ocean cruises are a better compromise for those who ...

We chose this cruise because of the ports they visited and the pre-cruise extension. The pre-cruise extension had 2 nights in Oslo and 2 additional nights in Bergen. In both locations the hotels Viking booked us in were excellent. We loved their central locations where we could walk to everything or have easy access to transportation. The train ride from Oslo to Bergen was beautiful. The fjords in ...

Viking is extremely well organized and the service is for the most part excellent. All of the shore excursion guides were very good for both the included and optional tours--our only negative was that there was not enough time allowed in a number of the museums to see more of the exhibits after listening to the guide's narrations. Tours operate rain or shine but umbrellas are provided. We were ...

We returned from our Scenic Scandinavia cruise on the Jupiter, and decided to pen a few thoughts here. I'll do good and not so good. The not so good part is very small indeed. Good:- The ship was beautiful and in impeccable condition. We thought the food was better than on previous trips too. The World cafe always had a good selection, and the lobster and prime rib night was fantastic. They ...

I wanted to see the fjords. I have always wanted to visit Norway. The ship is beautiful. The attention to detail is what makes Viking special. The crew and staff are amazing. I loved the cruise. We could not dock in Flam due to high winds. That made me very sad. I really wanted to take that train ride. The captain was great in taking us slowly through the fjords and it was beautiful but not the ...

We traveled on the Waterways of the Tsars with Viking a few years ago before covid hit. It was an exceptional experience. We decided to try the ocean cruise combined with a river cruise for my wife's and my 65th birthdays. Together we totally enjoyed the ship. The staff was superb and the food outstanding. We were quite disappointed with all of the land excursions. I guess we were spoiled on ...

We had only been to South America once; a trip to the Galapagos Islands ten years ago. We wanted to see more of mainland South America so we signed up for this cruise along with two other couples. We had also been on two Viking river boat cruises (both in Europe) and we wanted to try out a Viking Ocean Cruise. Just about everything was up to the high standards we have come to expect from ...

We hadn’t been to South America so we decided to cruise with Viking. We added the pre-cruise package to Buenos Aires which was very nice! Wonderful hotel (Hilton) . I would highly recommend adding these pre-cruise days. We had wonderful weather for the most part on the cruise. Lots of sun. The ship was lovely. The food was good, but not the best beef. The beef (steaks) were tough. Great ...
