Viking Ocean Viking Sky Cruise Reviews

I was invited to join friends on this cruise. Although I have been on several river cruises, I probably would not have considered this kind of a vacation but was very happy to try a new experience. I liked everything about it. The ship was beautiful, even with a sold-out cruise the on-board venues were never crowded, the cabin was very nice, the food was excellent and there was plenty to do, both ...

Traveling with friends who had never been to Italy. Previous Viking river cruises were great. This cruise was delayed from 2021 due to cancelation by Viking. In 2021 Viking offered the pre-cruise Rome extension and post-cruise Tuscany extension. That was not an option for 2023, with only Rome and Tuscany offered as a pre-extension. For those considering a Tuscany extension, do it on your own ...

I have been wanting to take a Viking cruise for several years. During COVID lockdown, we were having a "virtual Happy Hour" with some friends and they suggested we go ahead and book something for after the world returned to normal. We all agreed that a Viking cruise was something we all wanted to do, so we bit the bullet and booked for 2023. Definitely the best idea we had during lockdown! We ...

Chose this cruise to try an ocean cruise for the first time and to see the places where the ship would be docked. We really enjoyed the ship itself and how comfortable and smooth the cruise ship was. The restaurants, staff and all the things to do on the ship was above our expectations. The crew was so attentive and caring. The cleanliness of the ship was immaculate and the security in ...

This Mediterranean Cruise was a buck list item. The whole experience was terrific. The ship was very comfortable with all sorts of choices for meals and for places to just sit and relax. There was entertainment everywhere, from pianists to guitar players to shows in the theatre. The size of the ship was perfect with 900+ passengers. Big enough to have variety and options on board, but small ...

A first time cruiser, the Viking Sky shattered all my expectations. The cabins were comfortable, the staff was incredible, the food was delicious, the common spaces were approachable and elegant, and the excursions were seamlessly organized. The port talks before each destination ensure that you are prepared, the flow of getting of the boat and on to transportation is flawless. There was a great ...

There were 8 people in our group. We unanimously chose Viking based on reviews and word of mouth from our friends who had previously been on Viking cruises. We had the trip of a lifetime on the Viking Sky! Everything was perfect. Viking makes it so easy to enjoy every aspect of the experience. The ship is beautiful, the crew is so friendly and accommodating, the food is delicious and the ...

Some things I loved about my cruise with my mother: Rome Extension- allowed us to adjust/get through jet lag before embarking on the ship. The cabins! - spacious bathroom! Extremely comfortable beds and bedding. Spacious veranda with two chairs and table. The Food! Fresh and delicious fresh fruit at each meal time. So many bakery options! Gelato and the donuts were my favorite ...

My wife and I chose this cruise (21 days, from Istanbul to Athens to Venice to Rome) because we had never cruised the Mediterranean before, and since we enjoy history, this cruise covered many of the historical sites of the Eastern Mediterranean, including Istanbul Troy, Ephesus, Athens, Olympia, Pompeii and Rome; there are very few sea days, basically a new port every day. Plus, this cruise had ...

We chose this cruise of ancient antiquities as we had never been to the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. We had a great time on the Viking Sky. We especially enjoyed the people that we met on board. We loved the educational lectures. The food was tremendous, all venues were great. The included specialty coffees were very much appreciated. The included excursions were pretty good. The number of cruisers ...
