A trip of lifetime! by BillLiping

Sail date: / Traveled as: Couple
Ship: Viking Orion

We enjoyed all ports in Japan. The excursions were enriching. The wine tasking were fun and educational. The lectures from the Astronomer, historian were fantastic. We had two sea days but enjoyed every minute of it on board.

Fantastic NZ/Australian Cruise by cburdette41

Sail date: / Traveled as: Family (older children)
Ship: Viking Orion

Once we got on board, we were very pleased for the entire trip. The extra days in Sydney after the cruise were very worthwhile.

Wonderful Trip of a Lifetime by sallyreed

Sail date: / Traveled as: Large Group
Ship: Viking Orion

While we've done a Viking river cruise, this was our first Viking ocean cruise. Ships are lovely, and we enjoy the smaller size and lower number (about 900) of passengers. Food and service are excellent. Staff are well trained, friendly, and professional. The atmosphere is quiet, subdued, and somewhat intellectual with more focus on lectures/learning than entertainment. The average age of clientele is 70+ with few exceptions. No matter whether lecture, shore-talk, or vocal concert, passengers flock to the theater early with good seats a premium. Included tours (one at each stop) were generally disappointing bus rides around the city with the driver trying to also serve as tour-guide. Having only been on one previous Viking trip, we were unable to get access to the other tours that sold-out to more tenured Viking guests. This is the pecking order for booking excursions and specialty dining. I wouldn't rule out another Viking ocean voyage, but it was a mixed-bag for me.

The itinerary is not good. Long drives from the port to the city. Included tours are a waste of time. Sitting on a bus the whole time stuck in traffic. Some ports of call just not worth seeing as nothing there and the pollution and garbage will make you sick.
