We have wanted to sail the Adriatic Sea and visit the countries bordering.We wanted to sail during a time which was suitable for our weather preferences. We chose a great time! Having traveled with Viking before, we wanted to do this with Viking. The staff was uniformly courteous, helpful and always wanted to know if there was anything they could do to make our trip better. Typical Viking!The boat ...
We did a Viking river cruise and loved it. We thought this was an interesting itinerary and wanted to try an ocean cruise. It was wonderful, but we did decide that we enjoy the atmosphere of the smaller ships more. We also liked the ease of touring when the ship was docked. We didn't enjoy long bus rides to get to the sights or lack of free time during included tours. The buffet was good and well ...
The Good:
The ship is nice and the ports are interesting. Manfredi’s is a great place and the man who manages it is a very accommodating fellow. Our room Steward was very good.
The not-so-good:
The silver liquor package is not worth it anymore. When we traveled with Viking on the Budapest to Amsterdam river cruise the higher-end wine and liquor were worth the extra money – on this ...
We had heard good reviews about Viking from our friends so we decided to give it a try - we were on two prior cruises with other lines. We picked the Viking Homelands cruise after having two prior cruises cancelled due to Covid. We added Iceland as a pre-cruise excursion and were glad we did. We enjoyed all of our port of calls but wished Finland had been included on the itinerary. The ship was ...
We chose this cruise in 2019 after our first experience with Viking -- a River Cruise in Provence. We thought it would be a good way to see Scandinavia, where we had never been before. It would also have probably been our only chance to see St. Petersburg. After two covid cancellations we were pleased that we finally got to go, even without St. Petersburg (cancellation of which was a ...
The Viking cruise line gives you a 10 out of 10 service I felt so special and that’s fantastic Cruise. They make you feel like you are number one. I also had special dietary needs and they went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied above and beyond.
Also the excursions were very nice and organized as well. They also picked you up from the airport and brought you to your ...
We originally chose the cruise because I had always wanted to go to St Petersburg. Obviously with the war taking place the itinerary had to be changed. Viking made substitutions and while they weren't as amazing as Catherine the Great, I appreciated their efforts. The staff was exceptional. They were friendly, always looking to make sure you had everything you needed. The entertainment was ...
Viking takes care of you. From when you land, to taking you to your flight check in. They are always there. Top notch services, ships, tours, food choices, spa, pools and shows. The Mars was brand new. We enjoyed our accommodations. our cabin steward , Darwin was top notch! We couldn't ask for a better cruise. Viking made us feel like stars! They did a great job with adjusting ports after the ...
The Viking Homelands cruise of Scandinavia and other countries on the Baltic Sea has always been high on our bucket list. After two years of no cruises due to Covid, we were excited when Viking started back up and there were openings on their new ship Mars. The gracious Viking staff took care of our every need. Our arrival flight into Stockholm was delayed and we did not embark until nearly ...
This was our first Viking Cruise. We did the Viking Homelands with the pre-cruise extension in Iceland. From the minute we got off the plane in Reykjavik to the time we got on the plane for the return flight, everything was flawless. There was more than adequate help for the excursions and the housekeeping, dining, and other staff members were helpful and courteous. I would say it was one of ...
