We had another great Viking Cruise for ten days visiting the beautiful Caribbean islands. The Viking is rated #1 for many reasons. Moreover with all its outstanding attributes (cabin, dining, entertainment, shore excursions, service etc,), Viking has “class” which is apparent in all of its operations. Specifically, the planning and air arrangements were flawless. Our cabin was spacious and quite ...
We have taken 3 Viking River Cruises and thoroughly enjoyed each one so we wanted to try a Viking Ocean Cruise! We chose December because cruising in the Caribbean would offer us sun and warmth.
It was an amazing experience from start to finish. The embarkation was was very efficient as was the disembarkation. No stress!
The ship is beautiful and very passenger friendly. There are no ...
We've taken several viking river cruises, and wanted to try their ocean cruise to compare. Entertainment was great, better than most cruise lines we've taken. Food, and specialty restaurants were free and above our expectations. Entire crew was the friendliest we've seen, entire ship was a outstanding in amenities , cleanliness, and forward thinking. The free beer and wine at our meals was ...
Like many, we'd done several Viking River cruises and wanted to try their ocean voyages. I was not disappointed.
First, embarkation: We've taken ocean cruises on a couple of other lines, but the embarkation to Viking Sea was the easiest and fastest I have ever experienced. I braced myself for waiting in a long line and climbing a vast gangway into the ship, but we walked into an empty cruise ...
We chose this cruise for the itinerary and island destinations. This was our first cruise so we only had online research to help us. Once we were onboard and speaking with other guests -most of which were Viking Explorers which means repeat guests- we knew how lucky we were to have chosen this line. No up-sell. No one in your face. Attentive service with amazing food. Every port included a ...
Overall, an excellent cruise. We stopped every day in a new port (except for cancellation of Dominica due to political unrest there, and back to St. Lucia for the day.)
Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. With only one exception, service was fast, courteous and efficient in the bars and restaurants. We often encountered the crew, including the ship's captain, around the ship.
Dress ...
There are no other cruise experiences to equal Viking. The crew and staff are exceptionally friendly and made us feel most welcome.
There were no screaming kiddies running around raising havoc. All guests were made to feel special. There were so many different excursions to choose from. Our favorites were the submarine adventure and the catamaran trip to St. John's National Park.
We ...
We chose this cruise because of Viking’s excellent reputation and for the destination. We cruised to 10 ports in 10 days. Next time I’ll keep a journal so I can remember all the great locations.
The only thing I wish was different is Viking’s choices of included excursions. I would appreciate more variety. I’m not crazy about mountain drives. And, almost all of the included excursions involved ...
We chose this cruise because we had never been to these islands. This was our 6th Viking cruise, obviously we love the ship, staff, entertainment Service etc. Of the nine ports we had 5 included excursions and 4 extra excursions. One of the extra excursions was cancelled when political unrest made stopping in Dominica unwise. The other three were excellent. they include a tour of Harrison's ...
This was our first Viking cruise and we took the West Indies Explorer on the Viking Sea. We had been watching the Viking Ocean itineraries since the cruise line started in 2015 and thought it looked like a cruise line to meet all our needs. Well, that was certainly correct. We are experienced cruisers on 8 different cruise lines, both ocean and river. This was our favorite cruise. There were ...
