Dis / Dreams Viking Sea Cruise around Italy 3/24 - 3/31/2018

I went on YouTube yesterday and although I have not found any videos regarding the Viking Sky there were several about the Viking Star and what I saw was very impressive. One of them was an 18min review of a Caribbean cruise by some guy who apparently cruises all of the time. He gave it a 9/10. His main complaints were lack of good evening entertainment and the depth and temperature of the pools. As I said to Chuck, we may be so tired at night we won't want any entertainment or we can relax in the bar area..... Do I see a trend here.... And just chat. Unfortunately for the gamblers there was no casino on the Star. Don't know if this applies to the Sky.

Saw it! Don't you worry. We'll be brining our own entertainment!
 
Wow, this trip is on a roll! We're going to take over the ship! Wonder how often Viking sees a ship get booked up this quickly?

Viking is very surprised by this.

We received call from our Viking Sales rep regarding this sail date. She was shocked at how fast it was moving.

This call was a couple of days ago and at the point....we were the largest group ever on Viking Ocean Cruises. We have added several more cabins/people since that call. :yay::yay::yay:
 


Something I recently learned...

Electric scooters and electric wheelchairs are not allowed on Viking Ocean cruises.

Also, guests under 16 are not allowed.
 
One of our fellow travelers sent these to me (thank you again Elizabeth!!!!)

Here is the official Viking ad:


Here was a very good review of the Viking Star:


Enjoy!

From what I could find, the Sky has her maiden voyage on Feb 25th so that is probably why you haven't seen videos of her yet (but is nearly identical to the Star)

I also saw the same thing where the one complain was not the best on-board evening entertainment - but I think it is really about the ports and the people you are with so it will be great!
 


We could arrange our own Italian wine tasting aboard if anyone is interested. I guess we'd need to ok it with Viking. But everyone could bring a bottle purchased in Rome/Florence. We could open them up and have our own little Italian wine mix and mingle some evening. Let me know if there is interest.
 
Hello! This is Beth (Elizabeth) and I will be joined by either my DH or my 18 yr old DD. We're not sure at this point if my DH will be able to get away.

If you search Youtube for Viking Star or Viking Sea you'll see some great videos on the accommodations and will have a good idea on the differences between the classifications. The best part is the description of how uncrowded the ship is compared to other cruise lines. The only problem now is I really want to book another Viking Cruise.

The wine tasting sounds great!
