An absolutely incredible experience from the moment we left home until our return. Flight arrangements were impeccable, our first night's hotel accommodation was perfect, transfers to the ship were all as expected and we were welcomed on board like old friends. The staterooms, public areas, bars and restaurants were all clean and hygienic as you would hope for these days, the service was par excellence, the food was excellent in all dining locations, and the entertainment was spot on! The itinerary took us to a number of Caribbean and Central American ports, but the highlight was a part-sailing through the Panama Canal, letting us see first hand how it all works, and giving us a "guided tour" of the canal though the ship's resident expert.
We cruise regularly with Viking, on both the rivers and oceans, and this was another excellent experience. We're back very soon for another cruise which we look forward to enourmously!

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Caribbean with Viking.Beautiful ships and attentive staff.An excursion is offered in almost every port although these tend to be somewhat basic.There is also a good range of alternative optional excursions.The food on board is very good with no charge for the 2 alternative dining options. With Covid still a real threat,Viking provide a really safe environment.All staff and guests are tested daily and your temperature is checked on going into breakfast. As a result we had no cases on board as opposed to Aurora which reportedly had 60 to 80 passengers taken off the ship and transferred to an isolation vessel. Our cabins were serviced twice daily and returners cocktail parties were in full swing.Virtually the cruising experience we all remember. Well done Viking

A first time ocean cruise for us. We have only previously done European river cruises as not sure we could cope with more than 200 passengers. Has given us a taste of ocean cruising so have booked one for next year.
