In this Viking Ocean Cruises review vlog we discuss why VIKING CRUISES is Changing it's name. When people think about sailing on a Viking ocean, expedition or river ship, chairman Torstein Hagen doesn't want them to visualize it as "cruising." The word evokes visions of a megaship, noisy and full of kids, he said, saying that the Viking product is different. We share our experience aboard Viking Mars as it tours Australia and Southeast Asia so you can decide if Viking is for you. ABOUT US: We are a couple who retired early in order to travel and enjoy life. We spend half our time in Washington DC and the other half in extended slow travel all over the world. Our philosophy is to "travel wide" but also to "travel deep" which means really getting to learn the stories unique to the destinations that we visit.
