Review summary

Viking’s Egypt cruises are beyond excellent. This is quite possibly the best trip - land tour or a cruise - that I’ve been on. The itinerary was sublime - from start to finish. Worth every penny. Dare I say, Viking should charge more for this cruise.

Embarkation

Ship Quality

The most beautiful Viking ship I’ve been on. Which is saying a lot because Viking ships are all so gorgeous! But this one - stunning.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
I’ve been on the Veranda ships on the Viking longships. I’ve been on the Penthouse Junior Suites in the Viking Ocean. The Veranda Suites on the Viking Egypt ships are, by far, the most beautiful, elegant and comfortable of them all. I almost didn’t leave my cabin. It was soooo gorgeous and well-appointed.

Ship tip

Enjoy it all! Lunch and dinner at the Aquavit are a must.
