Viking Ocean Montreal Cruise Reviews

Viking ships were known to us. We chose the Eastern Seaboard cruise because this is an area we were not familiar with. The standard of onboard living was excellent. The cabin appeared spotlessly clean and the dining to a high standard as we had experienced on previous voyages. Embarkation and disembarkation was smooth and well organised. Viking say that they place emphasis on the ports of call but ...

Beautiful ship, great staff, terrific food but: rooms are small, hallways are freezing!, some of the excursions we were on were not well described, ie. inappropriate for anyone with even a small disability, (one cruise excursion was so bumpy it was actually dangerous trying to disembark....sea conditions should have been reviewed). Most excursions were well executed but there was often a chaotic ...

We went on this cruise to see Montreal and Quebec. The included tours of Quebec, Gaspe and Boston were very, very disappointing. We will not be taking any further Viking cruises in North America. If we decide to go on a Mississippi cruise, we will use the American Cruise line. The girl who handled our embarkation was the least friendly of the entire staff. The food was good but there were too ...

We chose this for our first ocean cruise experience. the ship accommodations were wonderful and the ship staff were very personal and a joy to interact with. the dining exceeded our expectations.the shore excursions were very fun and the guides were wonderful. the only hiccup was the disembarkation in New York City was an ordeal in getting to hotel in Times Square which is location in ...

We had been on a Viking River cruise and wanted to try an ocean cruise with Viking. This was our 14th cruise, the first with Viking. Not impressed. Cons: the food, the food, the food. The food was always cold. At the buffet at lunch, the hot food was cold, the food at dinner was cold, the nightly pea soup at 11:00pm was cold!! I complained, nicely, the first 3 days, it never got better. I ...

We have sailed ocean cruises a lot and wanted a smaller ship that was quiet & customer oriented and hoped we had found the right combination BUT the food was not the best and the service poor in the Restaurant. The daily scheduling was not well planned. They had lots of enrichment programs but they were put on at bad times. The price of the cruise was on the high side but many things are included ...

Decided to try Viking again after a great experience with Viking last year on their Baltic Homelands cruise. This time we were a bit disappointed. Air travel was messed up. We were notified of a return flight itinerary change mid way through our cruise.This was because of Viking's misunderstanding of customs requirements in NY. The change delayed our departure and resulted in an additional 5 ...

Eastern Canada and the St. Lawrence has been on my list for several years. I chose this cruise because of the itinerary and my desire to experience Viking Ocean cruising. I cannot fault Viking that the itinerary had to be changed and Prince Edward Island was eliminated. What I do find disappointing was that what I thought would be quite a luxurious experience turned out to be very average. ...

We wanted to give Viking Ocean cruises a try, after sailing with them previously on 6 or 7 river cruises. We've been sailing Viking for about 15 years. On our last river cruise (about 6 months ago), we were disappointed; the quality just wasn't the same as it had been previously. We've also sailed on Azamara (we love Azamara!), Princess, Oceania, Norwegian, and Royal Caribbean. On the ...
