Viking Ocean Luxury Cruises Reviews

they don't tell you that the weather will "probably" stink--1st stop Bergen-now they tell us it's the rainiest city in europe-rain coming down sideways-couldn't get off the tour bus-day 1 wasted-sailing to Alta was fine-decent weather-get toAlta-if its cloudy, which it was-there's nothing there-excursions are expensive but necessary-try the husky ride -its very very good-typical clouds, no ...

We had taken Viking's Mekong Delta cruise and had a great time so we booked the South American Cruise expecting a similar experience. While the ship was beautiful our cruise experience was sadly disappointing. The ship could not dock at two of 8 ports of call due to weather. This was not their fault but Viking made no effort to make up for it (on board credits, additional on board ...

Review of Viking Sky 2023/24 World Cruise. For 4 months per year my wife and I have been avid cruisers. Firstly 18 with Azamara, but since their sad decline we switched to Viking. Now with 8 completed, and enjoyed, it was sad to see how far Viking standards have fallen. We found this on our recent segmented 2 legs on this world cruise. This was after we were initially notified that we were ...

Our cruise on Viking was so-so at best. I will be avoiding that cruise line in the future. LAX as a major departure/arrival airport and San Pedro as the cruise port are EXTREMELY unsuitable and inconvenient. I have no idea why Viking selected this terrible combination as one of their two basic ports (the other being New York -- can you believe it?). There was hardly anything for us in the ...

Viking gets stellar reviews, which is why I booked this. Perhaps an "off " cruise? Beyond disappointing. Let's be clear; Viking is, in no way, a luxury cruise line. First the good: the ship is lovely, the food is very good and the crew are wonderful, with the exception of Guest Services. There were so many passengers complaining on this trip, I imagine they felt themselves overworked. They ...

We have done 2 Viking river cruises but this was very disappointing. Poor communication concerning description of tours and difficulty of some walking tours. Food quality and preparation had a lot to be desired. Many times food was cold and we were not thrilled with the selections offered. Everything seemed to have fish it it. Could not cut steaks. Not enough pool waiters on hand. Many of ...

My wife and I had a major Viking cruise credit left from the pandemic in 2020. As we did not wish to lose the major dollars in our account, we chose a cruise really based on using up the dollar balance, as Viking would not let us sail on multiple cruises leaving us with a zero balance. Initially, we boarded the Viking Sky and yes, the ship is clean as any cruise ship we have sailed on. We ...

We took this cruise because we had a voucher we received from Viking due to previous covid related planned river cruises. We had previously taken three Viking River Cruises which were excellent. Organization was outstanding; communication with passengers also excellent; excursions were great. Naturally, we expected the same on an ocean cruise however, that turned out not to be the case. ...

Took the cruise because of the itinerary and the Guest Speaker CAPT Don Walsh USN. Regrettably CAPT Walsh did not make the cruise. If you look overly salty food, then I recommend Viking. The food is abundant and of good presentation and quality. I found the spicing of the food uninspired. The itinerary was great. The crew was great. The ship is beautiful and well thought out. The ...

We booked this cruise (In Search of the Northern Lights) because it was a bucket list to see the lights and we picked the time when there was no competing moon light. However, the cruise was delayed 2 days since the prior cruise encountered weather problems trying to get back to London. Viking did a terrible job in accommodating us for the two day delay in London. The hotel they put us up at was ...
