We had taken the Grand European Viking River cruise in 2022 and were so impressed with the experience that we thought we would try the ocean cruise.
This cruise had all the great things we experienced on the river but included things like the infinity pool, (so cool) and inside pool and hot tubs. A variety of dining experiences. Shows & entertainment. We missed the intimacy of the river ...
We wanted to see the Eastern shoreline and hoped to see Fall leaves, we were a bit early it seems. Everyone at Viking went out of their way to make us comfortable and happy. Viking has an excellent crew from the crew director, the bar staff and the cleaning service. We met new friends and so enjoyed the enrichment lectures. The food was delicious and the spirit package made it more special. ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary, always dreamed of visiting Iceland. This was our second Viking trip, first ocean cruise. We knew the level of excellence to expect from our experience on a Viking river cruise, but were pleasantly surprised at how Viking even surpassed that expectation.
The ship was emaculate, the food delicious and very accommodating for my vegetarian diet, the crew ...
My husband has never been a cruising enthusiast, but this itinerary was appealing. This was our first Viking cruise, and we had such a marvelous time. The staff was top notch, the food superb, the ship lovely and quiet. Everything was to our liking, and we have now booked another Viking cruise! My husband said the experience was like being in a 5 star hotel that sailed you to your various ...
Having cruised with several cruise lines and Viking river cruises, we were attracted to the Viking Ocean Cruise offering. We chose Iceland and Greenland as exotic destinations which we would otherwise never visit.
The cruise itself was excellent, as one would expect from Viking, but it would be fair to say that the Viking river cruises are probable a little ahead in many respects. The ship is ...
We absolutely love Viking Ocean cruises! We have cruised on other lines before and feel we get more from the Viking experience. People truly do enjoy learning here! It was nice to hear one of our guides in Iceland who stated how respectful Viking guests are in comparison to other cruise lines. Despite the somewhat stressful excursion and specialty restaurant booking process, we feel like we got ...
We chose Viking because of their reputation. We were not disappointed. We chose the Iceland cruise to experience whale watching; seeing the puffins; and hopefully to see the Northern lights. From the moment we stepped on board, we felt we were being greeted by friends who wanted to ensure our comfort and happiness. We lo ed the whale watching excursion and can't say enough about how wonderful ...
We took a 7 day cruise around Iceland in August, 2023. It was our first time on Viking, although we have been on many cruises, including Crystal, Regent, Paul Gaugin as well as Princess, Celebrity and Carnival. I would say that this was among the best, if not THE best, ship we have encountered. It was FAR better than our more recent trip on Regent which was a huge disappointment.
We booked 2 ...
The excursions that were offered by Viking allowed us to see the beauty of all of Iceland!
Never disappointed with Viking. From embarkation through disembarking, Viking makes sure that your needs and requests are always met. The staff goes out of their way with a smile to start each day as well as making sure that your room is ready at the end of each day.
The meals were professional ...
Originally booked in 2021. Rebooked due to Covid. The weather was perfect. No rain for entire voyage. The local Tour Guides were all excellent. Very knowledgable and articulate. Smooth sailing throughout.
Service on the ship was excellent and up to Viking standards. This was our first Ocean Cruise with Viking. We were concerned with the size of the ship since our previous cruises were long ...
