7 Nights Mediterranean from Marseille Cruise

Fun time!

The ship was clean. The food was very good. The service was terrific, from room attendant to dining rm waiter and everyone working on the ship. The balcony room was kind of cozy for 4 ppl, but comfy enough. Shower was actually decent size, plenty of hot water and pressure. Vanity could use more shelves. Kids ages 9 and 12 had fun but could have had more activities for their age group. Maybe a poker room for kids, since they like card games? Maybe better options for kids to shop or grab a snack or bag of chips, etc.? We will prob take bigger ship next time for 7 nights. This is a good ship that's not too big, it goes under the Skyway bridge, and is very convenient to Tampa area. We will def return to Carnival in the future. This was our 3rd Carnival cruise, it did not disappoint.

Cruise of a lifetime on the lovely Grand Princess

Had a great cruise! Found the same excellent level of service from Princess I have enjoyed, despite my last sailing being in Aug 2019. Yes the Grand is older, I encountered no issues with HVAC, plumbing, smells or flooding, she is still a beautiful vessel who will take you great places! We were gifted the best weather in Glacier Bay - where we saw 2 bears on the coast! And Ketchikan! I found the food plentiful in choice, and cooked extremely well. Loved dinners in the Main Dining Room, the International Cafe had my favourite breakfast the smoked salmon sandwich. The buffet had some great choices. Alfredo’s and the Salty Dog Gastro Pub pop up we’re both highlight meals for me! I love the pre and post cruise transfers to/from the airport and the service Princess offers. Cruise of a lifetime for me seeing bears, whales, porpoises, otters, eagles and the Northern Lights! I wrote a full review with pictures from my trip on the Princess boards.

Best trip ever! Viking made it stress free.

Absolutely the best trip we have taken. Service by Viking staff was 5 star. We didn't anticipate how good the food on the ship was going to be! Every meal turned out to be a culinary adventure. Tours were informative and educational. You want to go on the riverboat cruise if you are interested in learning the culture and history of your destinations. We took all of the included tours and several of the extra tours. The extra tours were a very good bargain for the experience. Guides were friendly and engaging. The sail through the Rhine Gorge was awesome. The night time sail out of Cologne was also a memorable time. This was a family trip with my wife, our two adult sons and our daughter in laws. We all came away with the feeling that is was the best trip we have taken so far. It was a bucket list item for me. I'm glad we chose Viking.
