2025Appreciated the attention to detail and pleasant staff
We enjoyed our time on the Viking Mars, it was a beautiful ship and had lovely amenities. We have previously taken a trip on one of your river cruises to Paris 10 years ago so we decided to try your ocean cruise. We liked the fact that the Mars is a medium sized ship, and that we never felt crowded. It was very easy to obtain a table in any of the restaurants, we appreciated the attention to detail and pleasant staff who went above and beyond to help in any way they could. We extended our trip for two days on the front end and back end. The day we spent in Istanbul was delightful, we saw several historical sites and had a lovely lunch on the Bosphorus Sea.

2025We thoroughly enjoyed and were amazed at the sites
We thoroughly enjoyed Istanbul and were amazed by the sites. Ephesus was well worth the wait since it has been on my list forever. Greece was as expected in the fall, with good shopping and food. I appreciated that Viking ran a shuttle from Piraeus to the Plaka in Athens. That is a great area to visit and we had fun with our audio tour of the Parthenon. The ship and food were all good and the cruise staff were excellent.
