Viking is known for its impeccable quality in cruises ; they did not disappoint ! Service, food, ship, all excellent. The stateroom was nicely appointed and serviced twice a day. Our room steward was extremely attentive. The bed was firm but comfortable. Dining was very good. Several restaurants to choose from. The world cafe buffet was a bit crowded several nights , but we managed and the ...

We had cruised with Viking once before on the Rhine River Cruise and loved it! We chose this cruise because of the ship size, the leisure travel itinerary and the final stop at Stonehenge. We were so happy with everything -- the greeting at the airport when we arrived, the cleanliness of the ship, the food, the service, the entertainment, the availability of relaxation opportunities -- seating ...

This was a wonderful trip although I would hesitate to go back during the Christmas/Ephiphany holiday as we lost two stops along the way due to the holiday. Having said that, Viking made it very nice to celebrate on the ship. We had a nice Christmas, a fun New Year’s Eve and an amazing spread on New Year’s Day. I would not take any other cruise line again after sailing with Viking. This was ...

We were interested in this cruise because we had never been to Greece or Turkey and were excited to follow the journey of the Apostle Paul. We booked a guaranteed verandah cabin and let Viking choose our particular stateroom and were thrilled to have been upgraded to the 6th deck in a lovely midship deluxe verandah cabin. Our stateroom, the service and food and beverage choices and the entire ship ...

Viking is Fantastic! Need I say more. The friendliness of service both for our cabin and the resturaunts was more than great. Staff remembered our names, which, was very impressive. You asked for something you needed, you got it and right a way. Not hours later. We ate at the speciality resturaunts, the food was as good as eatting at a 5 star resturaunt on shore. The entertainment was impeccable. ...

I've always been interested in taking a Viking River cruise but to be perfectly honest the cost is a bit too high for my pocketbook. When I saw this Ocean Cruise in one of the ads I had been receiving it just seemed too good to pass up. 14 days, including free airfare, excursions at no charge for each port of call, no charge for wine at meals, specialty restaurants with no upcharge was right up ...

I sailed with them before on a river cruise the year before and loved it. Although the ports of call were changed due to the conflict in Israel, we were very happy with the replacement ports of Cyprus and Malta. The ship’s crew was fantastic. Always helpful and smiling. The ship itself is beautiful. The shore excursions (both included and optional) were great selections. Our only wish was that ...

Viking shipboard service was impeccable. The included excursions did not always match their descriptions, especially the driving excursions. Some of the excursion guides seemed to lack training and enthusiasm which made the excursion below expectations. Viking food was okay, nothing special Twice menu items preselected for medical diet were unavailable because the wrong menu was ...
