Review summary

We've done other Viking Ocean cruises but in Europe. But we are so glad we made the effort to fly from the US West Coast to Iceland and see spectacular Iceland by circumnavigating it. Going in July afforded us a chance to have 22 hours of daylight to see so much and experience everything. Viking did everything right! Their Covid protocols were followed by passengers and we felt safe and cared for. Another reason we like Viking so much is because we prefer new smaller ships that still provide more personalized service and where the fare is all inclusive.
