heard the Viking ocean cruises are higher end luxury cruises and our experience lived up to that...the crew on all fronts were awesome, helpful, wonderful inviting attitudes. the ship itself is beautiful and thoughtful in its decor and design. Our cabin was surprisingly spacious and efficiently designed while still being luxurious. We loved the World Cafe for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Also loved Manfredi's for dinner. Loved the indoor pool area, along with the high tea served there. Also loved the outdoor infinity pool and jacuzzi amongst the awesome snow capped mountains surrounding the ship...the scenery was spectacular and to experience it on this floating luxury hotel/resort made it even better...definitely enhanced the experience. The spa is first class as well as the gym/fitness facilities. Loved the indoor jacuzzi pool, steam room, sauna, plunge pool and the freezing room. We could have stayed on board for a month...maybe even longer
