We were looking for sunshine, warm weather, and time to relax in a comfortable setting providing good food and gracious service. I was looking forward to shopping in St. Thomas. This Viking cruise gave us exactly what we wanted.

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Somewhat limited variety in Manfredi's, Mamsen, buffet in World Cafe good, but not special, main dining room best choice, but nothing exceptional

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

Very few onboard activities day or evening, a few musical shows (good), and ventriloquist and opera (poor). Three trivia in evening. Guitar, piano, classical duo for 45 minutes at certain times. Tea at 4PM (average)

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Average. Beatles songbook and ABBA songbook nights were the best. Did have some great voices!
