Creator's Key Takeaways

Viking Star is a cruise ship that offers far more than a voyage with Scandinavian decor, fine food, and finer service.

The size of the ship is perfect. Even though we are a smalls size ship, we go into the smallest ports we can enter.

I think I am the proudest captain on the sea. This crew is amazing.
