Viking Ocean Miami Cruise Reviews

Who are we? We are a couple in our early 60's (a good 10-15 years younger than most on board) and have cruised on Princess 28 times. We decided to try something a little different and thought we'll give Viking Ocean a try. We decided on a 7 day Caribbean cruise to "try it out". We've been to the Caribbean many times, so we went for the ship experience as much as the ports. I will try not to ...

This was our first time sailing with Viking and we were very impressed. The ship was very nice with lots of quiet spaces. You did not feel that there were 900 plus other people on it except in the cafe the first day while waiting for the cabins to be ready. The food was excellent with a wide variety. Service was also excellent. Most of the excursions were good. We did have one where the ...

The whole experience of the ship (Sky) was the best,from the cabin, dining and service. Embarkation and disembarkation experience was smooth. The cabin was excellent, with the large shower, amenities and very roomy. The bed was very comfortable and king size which was great. Dining in all the restaurant was excellent. We had room service every morning and the service was ...

Overall we loved our first Ocean cruise on Viking. One of our complaints were with Manfredi's. We were the last seating of the night and think that may have been part of the problem. I ordered lasagna and the sauce on it was just like somebody had used canned tomato soup.....no flavor at all! My husband has Pasta fagoli and it was like a can of bean soup with a few tomatoes thrown in....not at ...

Canadians Cruising Without Luggage This first part has everything to do with our accepting Viking’s free airfare offer. And I believe by telling about all these experiences, future ocean voyage passengers might learn and avoid similar problems. The big mistake was to accept that offer, something that will never happen again. I will try all my best to be brief. We left Ottawa on an Air ...

LOVED the Viking Sky. We have done many ocean cruises on larger ships. This one was just right. Easy boat to navigate around, many amenities, first-class feel. Public areas were upscale. Wonderful dining room (not the big banquet hall feel of larger ships). Food was great. The World Café had a nice buffet, and seating (unlike on some larger ships) was never a problem. Access to the Aquavit ...

We chose this cruise because the price was right and we wanted to go to Key West. My brother and his wife ended up joining us. It was a fabulous 7 days. We visited Key West, Belize City, Cancun and Medea--included excursions in every port. The ship is magnificent and Viking REALLY knows how to do it right. We have cruised over a total of 600 days with other cruise lines and figured we had ...

Our cruise was to the Western Caribbean. When asked about it our response was more about the boat than the destinations. Friends and family would ask what about the shore excursions,but, our comments would always return to how great the time aboard was. From the moment we stepped aboard as our crew welcomed us they could not have been more genuinely friendly and helpful. After one day aboard our ...

We were passengers on the Viking Sky last week. We were trying this for a first time. We normally cruise with Holland America. While the cruise was "okay", we'll be staying with Holland America. The ship is very new so everything was fresh and bright. We like to watch movies in theater on sea days - there were no movies on sea days. There was a movie at night on the large screen by the ...

Wanted to try Viking Ocean, enjoy a winter break and see the Mayan sites. This cruise accomplished all of these. Viking Ocean is a very good cruise line and will enter our rotation of acceptable Cruise lines. We choose our cruises more on the itinerary and the quality of the cruise line and ship more than anything else Viking Ocean met or exceeded all our expectations for a cruise line. The ...
