My wife and I just returned from a 14-night cruise in Viking Mars. The cruise started in Barcelona on May 11 and ended in Bergen, Norway on May 25. The weather was perfect with negligible rain and much higher temperatures than expected.We are both in our 70s, semi retired and active. We are not foodies, gym rats or big partiers. This was our 21st cruise but the first on Viking Ocean. We chose

Let me get the one bad thing that happened down on paper first… one of our checked bags that Viking delivered to our pre-extension hotel in Venice was delivered to the wrong room - one with no one staying in it. The Viking desk at the Hilton Molino Stucky was of little to no help in finding it, but the hotel staff managed to locate it after 15 minutes or so. After that poor start on Viking’s

This was an amazing experience! From the extension both before and after the cruise to the actual cruise experience, everything was first class! The Viking crew was wonderful in making our experience the best! How they seem to easily remember the names of the the passengers is incredible! They were always ready to lend a hand or take care of something when needing attention. The food was very,

We thoroughly enjoyed our Viking Ocean Cruise. We had taken the Viking Mississippi River cruise last year and while both were enjoyable the size, ease, comfort, ports and staff were so different it is difficult to compare. We did opt for a larger room (PS1) on the Viking Jupiter which made our cruise so much more enjoyable. Highly recommend booking the larger room if budget allows as it was a

Like all Viking ships, there is little room for improvement. The ships are spacious, very well appointed with a quiet Norwegian style. We opted for a Deluxe Veranda Stateroom which while not large was adequate. Staff was generally friendly and capable with a few exceptions. A few critiques: As my wife and I do not eat meat, dining options were limited. While there are always vegetarian

Ship was great…stateroom and services were great….they could accommodate our group of 12 for dinner…a ver smooth trip…didn’t like the excursion sign up process ….we had a group of 12 and this process just didn’t work…more details about excursion…I.E….wine tasting 3.5 hours in a bus and 45 minutes tasting wine would have been good information…with that said…tours and buses were great…much cleaner

...

I felt welcomed and cared for. The ship was clean and well organized. The food was amazing and I enjoyed our off shore excursions. It was comfortable and pleasant with the number of guests on board the ship. I would definitely book another Viking cruise and have encouraged many people to do the same. The activity options are plentiful with a nice variety. Embarking and dis-embarking was so easy

...

The cruse was amazing. We had taken a cruise on another line and said never again. After this Viking Cruise we are looking at the taking another one. We have told friends that have taken other cruise lines and didnt care for it, that they need to take a Viking Cruise. The ship was unbelievable but what made the experience great was the staff. From what we could tell the entire attitude extended

My husband was reluctant about going because he dislikes cruising BUT he changed his mind and wanted to keep on cruising!We loved the ship and everything it had to offer. Really enjoyed the classical live music daily in the afternoons. The entertainment in the theater were surprisingly good. Loved the spa with the ice room. All the staff were incredibly nice and seems genuinely to

Viking Homelands Cruise takes you to 6 countries with perfectly curated stops and excursions. The usual Viking details and friendly attentive crew are in evidence. They have updated their menus and it was evident; this was our 5th Viking cruise and the food was the best ever. On board entertainment, from the 4 singers in the Star Theater to the resident historian were topnotch. We really
