4.6

cruise exceeded all our expectations! very comfortable bed and couch. shower great water pressure. food excellent--Manfredi's was our favorite, but the world cafe buffet is pretty amazing in the evenings; you just don't have a waiter. we found breakfast in our room was best for us, and orange juice is fresh squeezed (not so if you go to world cafe for breakfast). you don't need to tip as you

We chose this cruise because of its itinerary and our past experience with a Viking river cruise (City of Lights). We were very pleased, again! The handling of our luggage, excursions, guides, food/drink, entertainment, and ship staff (kudos to Fritzie) were all excellent. We really enjoyed the Beatles show and ‘dancing under the stars.’ We especially enjoyed our extension in Tuscany. Simona took

Viking handled everything and made the trip truly enjoyable. Transfer to the ship, suitcases delivered to the cabin. The cabin was a suite and It was wonderful. The service was outstanding, we wanted for nothing. We enjoyed the World Cafe, casual buffet restaurant, the food was delicious. They had so many options and great service. Everyone on the ship was friendly and helpful. I went to the spa

Viking is a great company and The Sea was a very comfortable ship. Loved the indoor spa. Desserts were delicious. It’s nice to have an outdoor pool with retractable roof. Room was quiet and steward took good care of us. Specialty restaurants were nice, but advise looking at Chef Table menu before reservation. There is no choice- only what Chef has prepared for the night. The buffet has many

It was truly a great experience. We visited many beautiful cities and there are so many things to do on the ship when not ashore. There is a fantastic spa with a sauna, steam room, ice room, ice plunge, and a water bucket to cool you down. The large heated whirlpool pool is relaxing and it even has a ladder to lay on with refreshing air bubbles massaging your body. On the upper deck there is a

Viking delivers their marketing branding. In an era of over-promising, false claims, and other questionable ethics, Viking delivered a high value cruise experience. It was our first time with Viking and we already booked another cruise. The staff, the ship, the excursion guides and the ports selected were all above average and many were excellent. We traveled as 2 couples, my wife and I and

Great itinerary and staff is exceptional. DV cabin is small (a foot or 2 wider would have been nice) but has lots of storage. Our steward, Ida, was fabulous. Even for a 2 week cruise food selection repeated often and didn’t feel special. Love sushi but not everyday. By day 5 food lost its appeal. Enjoyed the Chef’s Table specialty restaurant on Asian night. Best views for dining are

...

The Homelands itinerary was excellent with almost daily stops for sightseeing and a few sea days for enjoying the ship’s amenities. Port days were long enough to see the towns and enjoy Viking excursions or arrange for private tours and still be back onboard in plenty of time. The crew was outstanding and their attention to cleaniness was evident everywhere from housekeeping to restaurants. The

The cruise was very nice. Having no children and no smokey casinos was really great. The only thing I was not happy with was the flights arranged by Viking getting home from Bern Norway to Orlando Florida flying with Lufthansa, especially irritated in great getting from one plane to the next when changing flights in Frankfurt, walking over a mile and being delayed for over and hour in a remote

...

Overall we were quite pleased with this itinerary and the shore excursions. This was our first cruise and therefore the first time on a Viking ocean cruise; it met or exceeded expectations which were high going in based on research and friends who had been on their cruises. The ports were a mix of some of the main cities in the region - Stockholm, Gdansk, Berlin, Oslo, Bergen - and a few
