Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Viking Sea

My husband and I chose Viking based on a friend’s recommendation and published reviews. We chose the West Indies Explorer cruise to celebrate the Christmas holidays. Overall, we had a wonderful time. Ship: We loved the casual elegance of the ship’s design and furnishing. The ship’s small size made it easy to become familiar with its facilities and to get around. It was easy to get on and off ...

I know I’m not a seasoned cruiser, but I will tell you this much: I will be back on another Viking ship. Everything was clean, the food was delicious, the staff couldn’t have been better…I seriously can’t think of any complaints. We had a problem with the ports we were supposed to go to (Amazon River was low), but Viking gave us an excellent experience anyway. We even got onboard credit due to the ...

I would have given 5 stars as it was a wonderful experience overall with one major exception. We were supposed to go to Manaus & other stops in Brazil, but the Amazon was at historic low water levels and couldn't be navigated. Instead of rerouting us to a coastal port in Brazil, we were taken to the West Indies. We had visited those islands with Viking the year before, so the repeat stops ...

I love Viking and I love the amenities of their ocean ships. This was my 3rd ocean cruise and I was disappointed in the decline of service in the restaurant, bars, and tea room. Servers either didn’t take my order except after several requests or took my order and never returned or brought only a partial order. I was never asked if I wanted a cocktail in the pool area or lounge where drink ...

This was our first experience with Viking. We had considered a River Cruise for 2024 but changed our minds. Mid summer we received an email from Viking that had several cruises at the end of the year that included International Air. This being a Transatlantic Cruise with a great price. I wasn't sure how we would stay busy for one stretch of 6 days across the Atlantic. We found plenty to do, ...

Passing but not great

Loved the itinerary. Nice ship. Decent food but not great and lacking variety. Two lobster nights was really nice. Included Excursions were disappointing with average to below average guides. Paid excursions had better guides but really poor planning relative to time. Many excursions returned to the ship as buffet was closing. Others did not allow enough time for shopping and enjoying the ...

River cruise of 2022 was cancelled by us due to low river levels. Transferred to Med cruise that took us from Venice to Barcelona. We were looking for at least 14 days. It was wonderful in all aspects. Viking family was attentive, welcoming and warm. Plenty of adult educational seminars on the ports we visited. Nightly entertainment was superb and with audience participation (if one so wished) ...

Have sailed on this same ship on the viking homeland. Such a beautiful ship. My husbands first time on viking & he said he would never travel on any other cruiseline except viking. They are so exceptional. All the restaurants are fabulous & staff can't say enough. We will definitely sail with them again. Love it that no children. Have been on other crusies where parents let their children run ...

This was our first Viking ocean cruise. We've been on a Viking river cruise previously, as well as numerous cruises on other cruise lines. The Viking experience was different than on the larger ships. With 900 passengers, the ship never felt crowded and we had no problem going to different venues and finding seats. The ship is immaculate and very well maintained. The crew are very ...
