Viking Ocean Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

First off, the the cruise was perfect - the cabins, the service, the food, the amenities. The ports were generally nice - to take pictures of from the ship! But if you have trouble walking, forget it! For a cruise line that supposedly caters to the older crowd, there is NO accommodation for the even moderately impaired. Even when a shuttle bus was offered to get into town, it was pitiful ...

As as a first time cruiser, I was unsure of what to expect. In my opinion, Viking exceeded all expectations. The ship was absolutely beautiful and impeccably clean. Every aspect was meticulous - warm and friendly staff genuinely happy to provide excellent service. Food options were plentiful, from casual to elegant. Our stateroom was small but more than comfortable; plenty of closet and ...

In true Viking style, our cruise was wonderful. All the staff were excellent. The ship was always clean. The food was abundant and delicious. You can’t go wrong with Viking. The staff were constantly cleaning all areas of the ship. We never felt like 900 people were on the ship since there are so many areas you can sit and visit. We did a behind the scenes tour which was very interesting and ...

We selected this cruise because of the itinerary. We visited 6 countries and got a taste of the Mediterranean so we can return to our favorite places. Viking has always been a favorite cruise line for us...so inclusive. We never have a balance on our account at the end of the cruise because so much is included. We did not purchase the Silver Beverage package and had plenty of wine and beer. ...

Compare to other cruise ships we took in the past; Viking is head and shoulders above all other cruise ships. Including best customer service (they even remember our names), cleanliness of stateroom and the entire ship, 5-star services in all restaurants, bars on the ship and stateroom. In addition to the excellent services, the food was spectacular. To serve so many people every day and ...

We have cruised many times before but never on Viking. It was an unbelievable experience. Every need was met, the staff was so friendly and helpful. Our room steward was so great. Anything we needed was taken care of very quickly. It was not crowded and we never waited in line for anything. The excursions were top notch, so well run and efficient. The ship was spotless and the food was phenomenal. ...

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 ...

We wanted to check out many diffrent countries within 1 cruise. We wanted to see a lot of Italy. The restaurants were all very good.The waiters and bartenders were all accomating and super friendly,ready to please.All the excursions were wonderful!There were a few we could not book but when we got on board we were able to get on them.Same when we wanted some of the restaurants we were able to ...

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 ...
