Viking Star Tour & Viking Star Review ~ Viking ~ Cruise Ship Tour & Review
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a comprehensive review of the Viking Star, the first ocean ship from Viking Cruises. The tour begins with an examination of accommodations, ranging from Penthouse Veranda cabins to the expansive Owner Suite, which includes a private sauna and the opportunity to dine with the captain. The video highlights various ship amenities, including an infinity pool, a retractable awning over the pool area, and the double-decker Explorer Lounge. The reviewer notes the absence of a casino or art galleries, focusing instead on high-quality retail and the Liv Nordic Spa, which features a snow room and various thermal facilities. Dining options are extensively covered, including specialty restaurants like Manfredis and The Chef's Table, as well as the main dining room and the casual World Cafe buffet. The creator emphasizes the ship's residential feel, supported by the presence of books and international artifacts throughout the vessel. While the reviewer concludes that the entertainment and production quality could be improved, they ultimately describe the Viking Star as a high-value vessel that approaches luxury quality.
