This was our 3rd Viking cruise, but our first ocean one. The general consensus was that if we had never taken a Viking river cruise then this would have been the best experience we’ve ever had. However the larger ship with the greater population, while well managed, lacks the intimacy of the river longships. An example is dining in the restaurant. The open seating with the smaller tables was not ...

This was our first cruise on Viking and to the Mediterranean. We have been on several other cruise lines and all have been good. Viking probably appeals to a 55+ age group so there is not a lot of party, drinking themes in its programs or tours. The excursions we took through the line were all well done and had very knowledgeable people conducting the tours. The dining was very good with ...

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 a wonderful trip although I would hesitate to go back during the Christmas/Ephiphany holiday as we lost two stops along the way due to the holiday. Having said that, Viking made it very nice to celebrate on the ship. We had a nice Christmas, a fun New Year’s Eve and an amazing spread on New Year’s Day. I would not take any other cruise line again after sailing with Viking. This was ...

We wanted to focus on antiquities from Athens through Florence. We continued on through Barcelona to get a taste of southern France, in particular. Viking provided the perfect setting on its beautiful ship and with its exceptional staff. All details of our daily excursions were taken care of, and returning each afternoon for tea time, spa relaxation, excellent dining options and fun nightly ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

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 ...

Husband and I joined his parents for the first Viking Cruise (for all 4 of us). We sailed on the Mediterranean Antiquities journey and had a wonderful time. We picked early morning “upgraded” (paid) excursions with one exception (Monte Carlo, included tour), and our guides hit it out of the park 9/10 trips. The service on Viking is excellent and unobtrusive, and the ship decor and comfort level ...

We were interested in this cruise because we had never been to Greece or Turkey and were excited to follow the journey of the Apostle Paul. We booked a guaranteed verandah cabin and let Viking choose our particular stateroom and were thrilled to have been upgraded to the 6th deck in a lovely midship deluxe verandah cabin. Our stateroom, the service and food and beverage choices and the entire ship ...

We chose this cruise because it was going to the Holy Lands. Unfortunately, we needed to be rerouted due to the current conflict. We decided to stay with the cruise because the rest of the trip would still be memorable, plus going with a group of friends. Malta was a good choice for the reroute. Mdina and Valetta were very interesting cities to visit. Our favorite excursion was Pompeii. ...

We were most excited to choose this cruise because Israel was on route. Disappointed but not to the extent to cancel. Also having experienced a few over the top river cruises we wanted to experience a Viking Ocean. Other than a few glitches with winter flights and time changes this 15 day cruise was flawless. Of course Viking has a standard of service and amenities that is elevated beyond ...
