About our Bacon Score methodologyYouTube Video Description↓
After our time in Asia, we boarded a Viking Ocean repositioning cruise in Tokyo. This was a 23-day repositioning cruise that went up along the entire coast of Alaska and down to Vancouver, Canada. This was our opportunity to get back to the United States, go on an Alaskan cruise, and give a review for our first time on a Viking Ocean cruise. We knew it was an expensive cruise, but it also checked many boxes for things we wanted to experience. In this video, we highlight the many good things about this Viking repositioning cruise, but also highlight a couple of things we didn't like. Thanks for following along with us and happy journeys, John and Bev 💬 STAY CONNECTED WITH US!
