1-10 of 28 Norwegian Fjords Viking Star Norwegian Fjords Cruise Reviews
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 ...
This ship, the level of comfort and individualized service, were incredible. Clean, elegant areas on the ship. Interesting tours and sightseeing events. Viking is known for really taking care of their passengers. My favorite destination on this trip was going to Norway and seeing the fjords.
Although we would like to experience the entertainment, most shows started too late for us. However, the ...
We chose this cruise in hopes of seeing the elusive Northern Lights. We were so lucky as we saw them on four or five different nights. Our best views were from the ship after leaving Narvik.
We cruised from Bergen to Tilbury on the Viking Star February 15 through February 27th. We have been on over 50 cruises but this was our first on Viking. We were surprised with the uncrowded open spaces. ...
My husband and I have always wanted to see Norway. We both have Norwegian DNA. It is also a place that neither one of us has been before. The ship and our cabin were immaculate. Our cabin stewards anticipated our every need. All of the Viking employees were wonderful. We enjoyed the port talks and all the lectures they offered. Our favorite excursion was the husky dog sleds. We also got to ...
We wanted to see a part of the world that is not easily accessible and also beautiful. The few days at sea allowed us a very good opportunity to explore and enjoy the various amenities provided on the ship. All the crew were tremendously friendly and helpful. I particularly enjoyed visiting the spa with the large heated jacuzzi, steam, sauna and snow grotto. The fitness center offered all the ...
(Sorry in advance for the long review.)
My wife & I had not been on any significant cruises in the past decade because the trend to larger ships goes against most of what I want in a cruise. Things that are important to me are: lack of crowds, not feeling like each activity or announcement was a grab for more money, food properly prepared (does not need to be uber-high end, but it shouldn't ...
We have cruised Princess, HAL, Celebrity and NCL before. This was our first Viking Ocean cruise.
We arrived in Olso 2 days before the cruise and on our own booked in advance a "Norway in a Nutshell" 12 hour tour to Bergen as recommended by Rick Steves. It involved 3 different train rides, a Fjord boat tour and a bus ride all in one day, all very spectacular. Although unaccompanied, all the ...
We had previously had an enjoyable experience on a Viking River Cruise so we decided to try the Ocean cruise. We had wanted to go to Norway so the London, Scotland and Norway itinerary fit our needs. The ship was beautiful and the amenities were well thought out. The service in the restaurants, cabin and special events was great. The sites visited were breathtaking. We enjoyed the history of the ...
First we went to Iceland for the precruise holiday and Viking did an outstanding job. Arrived in Bergen, Norway, and we were bussed to the port. Very easy embarkation, and our room was ready when we arrived. Bags arrived shortly thereafter while we were having a drink on the explorer's lounge. We purchased the silver spirits beverage package which for us was a great deal. My husband had his ...
Booked this cruise based upon our experience on our 2014 Budapest to Amsterdam- Danube River Cruise which was fantastic by any definition as well! The Baltic Cruise went far beyond our expectations from embarkation to disembarkation. The Viking Star is an unbelievable ship! The amenities and service far exceeded that of the larger cruise ships we have travelled on including food, service, ...
