The embarkation and disembarkation were smooth. The outbound and return flights and transfers were well organized.
Thee ship is beautiful. The decor is modern and elegant. The furnishing is unique and stylish. Enjoyed walking around looking at the artwork. The attention to detail is obvious throughout the ship.
The ship is spotless and immaculate including the public bathrooms....enjoyed the ...
Dates of travel; to try Viking Ocean ships, ship is beautiful, love the public spaces. Cabin is quite well designed, with great storage and organization. We wish there were some sort of small prizes in daily trivia games, some Viking labels small items, perhaps?. We enjoyed both specialty restaurants -- would like to know menu focus when reserving a particular night at Chef's Table. Entertainment ...
We chose this cruise to go to Cuba and were disappointed that didn't work out. Then we kept the cruise with the revised itinerary in order to see Key West. That didn't work out either as we didn't stop there due to rough waters. But the cruise was nice. Loved the lectures. Ship was nice. The main dining room service was very slow and they seemed understaffed. The other dining venues were much ...
We recently cruised the Western Caribbean on the Viking Sky, leaving Miami on January 10. This was our first ocean cruise with Viking. We had done two previous river cruises with Viking and liked their product, and we were looking forward to trying their ocean cruises. Overall, it was our 11th ocean cruise. We had three prior cruises on Star Clippers, two each on Carnival, NCL and Celebrity, ...
I had such an incredible experience when I was on the Baltic Sea cruise in July 2019. It was my first experience of a cruise ship, and I decided that I would only travel on Viking.
Unfortunately, the Caribbean cruise was a great disappointment. I chose this particular cruise so I could visit the Chicken Itza Mayan Ruins. Unfortunately, because the ship had "technical difficulties" the ship did ...
We thought this cruise, even though a short one going basically nowhere, would be a nice getaway for a few days. The "highlight" was a stop in Belize. THAT part of the entire experience went as expected. The rest, forgettable. Aggravating. Disappointing, and worse. …..First, the people in Woodland Hills, just the marketing part of the company, will answer your questions, but the answers they ...
We wanted to try Viking as we like smaller ships and nice service. Sadly, Viking does not live up to a luxury or premium standard. Passenger to crew ratio is around 2 to 1. Staff in restaurants and bars are over-worked at times if it is busy and service becomes very slow and poor. If not busy, staff are great.
Communications on the ship are lacking. The cruise director, Chris, is a great singer ...
Thank you for sharing your experience, rdt4780. While adverse weather is beyond our control, your disappointment in the impact to your itinerary is understandable; your feedback about the...
We selected this cruise because Cuba was originally on the itinerary. Through no fault of Viking, this port of call was cancelled due to a change in government policy. We still kept the reservation, as we wanted to visit the Central American places on the itinerary, as well as part of the Panama Canal. We knew we had some days at sea, but because of winds and rough seas, in addition to the Cuba ...
I chose this cruise because it left from Miami where I live. The ship is beautiful and is keep extremely clean in all areas. Service in all area were polite, pleasant and happy to help in any way needed. I was a single traveler so my cabin was quite comfortable. For two people I think the drawers are not adequate.Shower was exceptional hot water whenever needed.The Manfredi's restaurant was the ...
We are incredulous about the service on this ship: friendly, attentitive, and conscientious. Each person we see greets us warmly and with authenticity. The waiters learn your names within a day or two and treat you like royalty.
After five days of being at sea, there is no let up in the attention to detail and graciousness. The food is generally quite good; the sushi bar is excellent and ...
