Creator's Key Takeaways

the ever friendly crew surprised us with an Alfresco barbecue and when Viking does a barbecue the line goes all out with an incredible spread of not just all the surf lobster tail included but also bone marrow corn on the cob and porterhouse steaks

I honestly can't say enough good things about this team who went so far as to be present every 10 feet or so to help guests with a steady hand as they stepped out of zodiacs on any particularly challenging Landing
