Viking Star - Hits and Misses: a cruise ship review
A review of a long list of things that Viking Ocean Cruises got right with their cruise ship, The Viking Star... plus a much shorter list of some things that they got significantly wrong.
The hits include a VERY uncrowded ship without any children onboard, lots of complementary extras that the other cruise lines would nickel and dime you for, and some delicious meals.
The misses include two way-too-deep swimming pools with no shallow end, hot and humid conditions around the mid-ship pool when the overhead dome is closed, and a lack of entertainment options in the evenings, compared to cruising on a Mega cruise ship.
Considering everything, this cruise does score a 9-out-of-10 for me, and only "The Haven" on Norwegian Cruise line seems to be in the same league as the luxury VIP experience I had during my 10 days on Viking Star.
Please note that this review was recorded in 2016, when Viking Star was still fairly new. Several important things have changed since then, including improvements to some of things I mentioned as "misses" in this review. For a more up-to-date view of what a cruise on Viking is like, please take a look at a much more recent video I made about Viking after a cruise on the Viking Sea: https://youtu.be/blL-kb7ZgaA
