Viking Ocean Cruise Reviews

This was the best cruise of our life. Viking really does everything right: All-inclusive pricing, almost no extras (some excursions are extra), absolutely delicious food every meal, almost no sense of crowding, fantastic destinations. We enjoyed every single day. Got to see some bucket-list sites, notably Borobudur, the largest Buddhist monument on Earth. Staff were exceedingly helpful and ...

I thought given reviews that Viking would give us a superior experience, not a superior attitude. I erred. Problems began, and ended, with Viking Air. We spent over $12,000 on air alone to get .... not a ticket. Viking and Viking Air were unable to fix the problem despite our time on the phone with both AND assurances that they had. So, our trip started with the customer service agent ...

Viking and their entire staff, from booking, to choosing excursions far exceeded our expectations. ‘My Viking’ app creates a nearly seamless way to handle all of our details. The cruise itself was a joy from start to finish with every detail handled. I am thrilled to highly recommend Viking to everyone. Our cabin was spacious and provided everything you could possibly want. One of the ...

We traveled via Viking Air Business Class going and Premium Economy upon return, arranging our hotel in Istanbul for three days before embarkation and doing the post-cruise extension in Athens upon disembarkation. We traveled as three seniors. Travel to and from the cruise was arranged through Viking Air months before the cruise with recurrent notices of dates times, airline booking codes, and ...

they don't tell you that the weather will "probably" stink--1st stop Bergen-now they tell us it's the rainiest city in europe-rain coming down sideways-couldn't get off the tour bus-day 1 wasted-sailing to Alta was fine-decent weather-get toAlta-if its cloudy, which it was-there's nothing there-excursions are expensive but necessary-try the husky ride -its very very good-typical clouds, no ...

We went in search of the Northern Lights, which we saw briefly, but discovered so many magical worlds. Before embarking on a Northern Lights cruise you need to understand the reality of searching for the Northern Lights (it’s not like social media would lead you to believe) and adjust your expectations. Still, the hunt is exciting and completely worth it. You’d be hard pressed to do better than ...

Overall, we loved the ship - the size was about perfect to have more amenities but not too many people. The stateroom and public spaces were very comfortable and well done without being ostentatious. The food was generally very good but there were some definite misses. The asian style dishes were generally excellent as were breakfasts and lunch in the cafe. We found most pastries to be ...

REVIEW FOR VIKING VENUS THROUGH CRUISE CRITIC This is our fifth journey with VIKING CRUISES, but this is our first time to try an Ocean cruise. My husband and I sailed the Bordeaux wine river cruise in 2017 with friends, the Danube and Rhine Christmas market river cruises in 2019 and 2021 to celebrate my birthday, the Lyon and Provence river cruise with friends in 2022. We thought River ...

I was very impressed with your superior service and staff. The food was outstanding and alway felt it was fresh. The best place to eat was The Restaurant. They also had the best and friendliest staff. I was greeted with a smile and even excellent recall of my favorites! I was not impressed with Italian restaurant service. The staff we encountered at our meal was difficult to understand. She was ...

We went on a river cruise with Viking and the opportunity and time became available to try an ocean cruise.The river cruise would actually my first choice from now on, but the Viking ocean cruise was by far the best ocean one I have ever been on. A 5 for sure, the river cruise was a 5+.The food was always fresh and tasty with care alway on neatness and cleanliness while being presented in such a ...
