We booked the cruise a little over a month before we sailed. It was the best thing we ever did.. My wife contacted a travel agent and they managed everything. The ship was great. Clean, well built and well laid out. Everything was spotless. It was easy to find your way and find what you wanted. The cabin was also spotless. It was a joy to stay there. The cabin steward was very proficient, ...
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 ...
We had been on several river cruises, but this was our first Ocean. We were very happy with the Viking River cruise (especially the limited number of passengers) and wanted to try the Viking Ocean as it was much larger but still limited to 900 passengers.
We were surprised at how we never felt crowded on the ship, the additional restaurant options were great, and we took advantage of room ...
We just did nearly a month from 8/2. Our point of view - We have 60-+ days on Seabourn, nearly 100 on Regent and Oceania each and some Holland and Royal. The good - ship is brand new and is well appointed. Lectures and enrichment is good. the rest just isn’t for us - poor service - except for a few exceptions in the Chefs Table. Nobody remembers your preferences, the food repeated after 14 days, ...

We’ve always wanted to visit Norway and to cruise across the ocean and the Iceland/Norway cruise was perfect. Viking only visited one port in Iceland but we did arrive early and took a few day trips from Reykjavik. The cruise ship itself did not disappoint as they truly cater to the older crowd. The embarkation process is exceptional and the number of staff involved make it a simple process. ...
We booked the Iceland and Norway cruise in 2020, but were unable to go. We finally made it in 2022. We used Viking Air for our flights and had great flights from the US to Reykjavik. We arrived early in the morning so Viking picked us up and took us to a conference hall for breakfast and to wait until we could board our ship. Once on the ship, all the staff were friendly and willing to help. ...
We chose this cruise because others told us about their wonderful experiences and they were right! Planning the trip on the website was so easy. Filling out the forms and having access to important information throughout the process was extremely helpful. The transfers and security were run seamlessly. Every single staff member that we encountered, was professional, courteous and very kind. The ...
My husband and I decided to take our first cruise with Viking. It was beyond what we expected and have now seen the value that cruising has to offer. We were blown away by the service of every individual we came in contact with. Everyone was friendly and happy to accommodate us to make sure we were having our needs met and that we were having great experiences. The cabin service was ...
We had originally booked this cruise (London to Bergen) for 2020, but Covid got in the way! Viking were superb about keeping our booking open and we finally made it on board in Greenwich. I had been fortunate enough to be given a tour of one of her sister ships that had docked in Eden, NSW, Australia, earlier in the year, so I knew we were going to be impressed - and we were!
Being a smaller ...
We chose this cruise because of the Scandinavian itinerary. The natural beauty of Norway especially cannot be overstated. We've cruised with Viking before, both river and ocean, and we never even considered any other cruise line. Our stateroom was spacious (penthouse veranda), comfortable and beautiful. Once again we were impressed and very happy with all of the staff on board. Incredible ...
