Review summary

Very hot the entire time for someone from OR. No one to blame for that. Just a piece of advice re May temps up to 90+F. Nonetheless the scenery, history, and the Viking experience were well worth it

Embarkation

2 out of 5
In Istanbul? Chaotic in a word.

Never a disappointment with Viking

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Pools, Shops, Nail Salon. Great services in all areas.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Enjoyable but did not partake a lot in the “nightlife .” Too many people in the theatre. All presumably negative for COVID but I preferred less exposure. Saw several great shows on our room

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Hard working young people from all over the planet are a delight, polite and friendly.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Our fourth ocean cruise on Viking. Familiar but as fresh and well kept as the other earlier voyages.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Perfect for us. Size and price
