Viking Ocean Venice Cruise Reviews

I’ve always wanted to take a Viking Ocean cruise. We usually do on Disney Cruise Lines but frankly they have cut way back on food, service and increased cost. It was our first Viking cruise from Venice to Athens. Food, service, the ship, especially the cleanliness, was amazing. They booked the flights on Aer Lingus and Delta for the trip home to Boston. We did note that the leg room on ...

Wonderful cruise from the moment we checked in! Easy check in, great welcoming crew. Food was amazing. Very welcoming staff all around. Seas were smooth as glass for the entire trip. We did all our tours through Viking which we enjoyed. We did not attend any of the shows or presentations as we dined late each night. We really enjoyed the chefs dinners and were only able to get one ...

Itinerary and ports of call were what we wanted. Exceed our expectations. Shore excursion were top notch. Good and service were A +. Have cruised on other lines and Viking is by far the best. The cabin was cleany possible and excellent with amenities. Food was the best I have had on cruises. Staff was friendly and always looking to assist in any way possible. I have been in a Viking River cruise ...

This was to be our 25 year wedding anniversary trip in 2020. Then COVID happened so Viking rescheduled twice and we delayed another year to be back to as close to “normal” no masks or daily testing, as possible. We had a wonderful time. Over the delays we upgraded our room each time so we’re blessed to have Jr suite. It was so nice and comfortable. Our room stewards were fantastic. Having ...

So glad that we booked this cruise!! Staff was welcoming and wonderful! Impressed by the size of the bathroom in our cabin! Cabin was very comfortable. Of course, we were not in our cabin much! Viking is so organized! Embarking was so easy and a pleasure. Food options were good. So nice to be on a small cruise that didn’t have screaming children! We were the younger of the cruisers, but enjoyed ...

A change in Airlines on the first day of travel created issues that would adversely impact the start of our vacation. We could not wait to visit Venice. However, the weather would not co-operate. Star departed 1 day early as a consequence our luggage missed the ship's movement. Clothing caught up with us the afternoon of the port visit in Bari 4 days later. Welcome Star's customer service and ...

I chose this cruise because going to Italy was on my "bucket list" and being of Italian descent, I wanted to see this beautiful country. The Italian Sojourn itinerary allowed me to visit several areas of interest in a short period of time. I was unaware that this was the second leg of a 3-week journey and the third leg, which ends in Barcelona, also visits additional ports in Italy. Had I ...

My husband and I chose this cruise for our honeymoon. We love history and we love activities, we typically can't sit still for too long. We both have never been to Italy or Croatia. We are so glad we chose Viking, it was a great way to see a lot of different cities in a short amount of time. The excursions were easy to book and the guides, drivers and staff were fantastic. Everything was so well ...

We have been on 3 Viking River Cruises and they were fabulous. I had so hoped Viking could recreate this magic on their ocean cruises. I have to say I was slightly disappointed. On the river cruises Viking has thought of every detail, but this does not always translate to the ocean experience. For example, we had 150 people arrive at a small town at the same time. With 4 buses it would have ...

This is the second cruise my husband and I have taken with Viking. The ship had an abundance of staff members and the service was wonderful. Staff seems to be highly trained in their area of hospitality. I found that Viking is very organized and has an acute attention to detail. Little things, like handing out hot towels upon our return from an excursion, were well appreciated. The rooms were ...
