Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Viking Mars

First Viking cruise and I was not disappointed. The customer service, accommodations, and food was outstanding. They don't nickel and dime you on board which was appreciated. I love that many excursions are included in the initial price. We enjoyed the specialty restaurant meals. The chef's accommodated my shellfish allergy.
The ship was clean and the massage in the spa was enjoyable. ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s
This was our first cruise on over 30 years. We were traveling half way around the world to visit with a family member in Sydney and decided to include New Zealand in our travels. The pre-extension around the north island was fabulous. We met some great people on the cruise, and there was a lot of good food. The entertainment was outstanding, as well as the talks on history of the areas we were ...

My husband and I took our first cruise with Viking in March, actually 2 cruises combined into one (New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia). The ship's staff were excellent and went out of their way to serve. Food selection and quality were always good in all of the dining venues. Our only complaint would be lack of a decent salad bar and few whole grain bread options. We appreciated the ship's light ...

Though we've traveled on many different cruise lines, this was our 1st Viking cruise. Prior to boarding our experience was so-so. Viking brochures clearly tell you that on board tips & gratuities are included for ocean cruises in general and this trip in particular, yet as soon as you pay they ask you to prepay onboard tips and gratuities. We booked with 2 other couples (6 people total) and asked ...

My husband and I originally purchased a river cruise to sail 2020; then Covid. After waiting three years to travel we decided the Australia/New Zealand ocean cruise sounded like a once in a lifetime adventure. Viking did not disappoint! This was our first Viking cruise but not our first cruise.
First let me begin with the safety features for Covid that were built into our ship-sinks with cloth ...

My husband and I are in our forties, so we understand we’re younger than the typical Viking guest. We have done two Holland America cruises in the past (although in 2010 and 2015, so several years ago) and enjoyed them. We did a Viking River cruise in 2019 and loved it, which was our primary motivator for booking with Viking Ocean. We’re avid readers and generally quiet people, so the appeal of 1) ...

After three iterations we finally made it to our bucket list destination: New Zealand. We’ve been to Australia before, but New Zealand has evaded us for years for many different reasons. It was well worth the wait. Our cruise was exceptional in all aspects. The food was delicious, the wine plentiful and the staff so friendly and worked to make every detail perfect. The excursions were well planned ...

Just returned from a dream trip down under. This was our second ocean cruise with Viking. We had cruised the Mediterranean on the Jupiter, pre-pandemic. Have taken dozens of cruises on many lines. Love the Viking vibe - sleek, intimate, inclusive excellence with no formal nights, no casino, no kids. First, some general impressions about their ocean cruises: the launderette on each floor ...

We choose this cruise to travel with our friends who has mobility issues. Our first Viking Cruise and it more than met my expectations. The stateroom was excellent, our cabin service as well as the waitstaff and ship crew were all friendly, and went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. We had a few issues including an electrical fire in a stateroom on our deck the first day and a ...

We are aware that Viking has a vast and loyal following. Unfortunately, our recent cruise on the Mars was a disappointment. First a little background. We have sailed on most every river cruise Viking offers and been completely satisfied. While this was our first Viking ocean cruise, we have sailed with Norwegian, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Holland America, Oceania, and Regent so we do have some ...
