Viking Ocean Asia Cruise Reviews

This was the best cruise of our life. Viking really does everything right: All-inclusive pricing, almost no extras (some excursions are extra), absolutely delicious food every meal, almost no sense of crowding, fantastic destinations. We enjoyed every single day. Got to see some bucket-list sites, notably Borobudur, the largest Buddhist monument on Earth. Staff were exceedingly helpful and ...

We chose the Viking Panama Canal 16 day cruise because of the opportunity for extended sea days mixed with South American tropical ports of call. This itinerary afforded us ample time aboard to take advantage of multiple Nordic Spa days, daily promenade walks at sunrise, sunsets on our veranda and star lite nights. Quiet times to sunbath with a good book or reflect upon the soul stirring live ...

This was my very first ocean cruise. I had specific requirements in my search for the right cruise. I wasn’t interested in a party atmosphere with loud disco music, I wanted to avoid children running around the ship, and I wasn’t interested in spending time with gambling or casinos. I wanted a cruise with diverse dining options in restaurants that didn’t require me to become best friends with a ...

We chose this cruise because we have wanted to see Australia and New Zealand and this cruise had a lot of stops in both countries. Another plus was having the opportunity to unpack once and having a home base to keep coming back to vs a land tour where you live out of your suitcase moving every day or two. Those were the top 2 important criteria. Embarkation was very easy, especially since ...

I was interested in learning more about this region in a relaxing travel mode and this cruise delivered. The one thing that surprised me most was how well appointed the Orion was. I have been on several cruises and none were as nice as this for me. So much was included that I way overpacked! I even enjoyed coffee and sodas in my room without using room service. Great as I like to spend time on my ...

We were looking for something out of the ordinary, and this adventure did not disappoint. We enjoyed exploring Sydney and riding the public ferries to the local beaches,, seeing kangaroos in the wild during our Hunter Valley wine tasting, snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef, witnessing Komodo Dragons in their natural environment, and relaxing in a luxurious Bali resort. The Viking Experience ...

This Viking cruise was our first Ocean cruise. We took a Viking River cruise and loved it, so we decided to try an Ocean cruise. The staff and their customer service on a Viking cruise were top notch. The amenities on board, from the gym, the spa and pool areas were amazing. The food was so delicious and expertly prepared. The staterooms were very comfortable with a lovely balcony. ...

What a relief to be on a ship that actually has some culture, no casinos and no kids! Boarding was a dream no cues. No cues to get off and onto the ship along the way! The best of all, everything was included in the price, including never ending beer and wine at mealtimes. Yes, you pay for fancy cocktails and spirits, but that is not necessary unless you are an alcoholic. The ratio of ...

We have done 2 previous river cruises and this was our first Ocean Cruise. We were very impressed with the travel and transfer arrangements that Viking had made for us. If you are like us, which are cautious travelers to first time destinations, Viking is the cruise company for you. Once you meet your Viking representative at the destination airport EVERYTHING is taken care of for you. We ...

My husband and I were onboard Viking Orion last November, starting from Bali (Indonesia), ending in Sydney (Australia). Going to Australia was never on our agenda because it was just too far from our home in New York. But Viking had a Flash Sale that included free airfare and free beverage package -- it was too good a deal to pass! We knew this kind of sale usually means limited stateroom ...
