  1. My husband, Dennis, and I just put a deposit on Viking Sky Ocean Cruise for 09-04-2016. We will be starting at Barcelona and ending in Venice. We chose this cruise because we just were on the Viking River Spirit Cruise from Paris through the Heart of Normandy. This was our first ever cruise and enjoyed it so much. On this cruise, we found out about the Viking Ocean Cruises. We met Sherry and her brother who were sailing on the Viking Sky Ocean Cruise in 2015. They would be on the Mediterranean Odyssey segment. When we found out this cruise started in Barcelona and went to Dubrovnik and Split Croatia, we were sold.

     

    We are taking the three day pre extension in Barcelona also

     

    We put down a small deposit on July 5th. The remainder is due 12-17-2014! Ouch! Kathy

  2. The ship Spirit will be in Paris til the next day. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I think the question is will we have enough time to get back to the ship for dinner which is at 7 PM? If I take the 2 PM tour we have to be there at 1:45PM. The tour starts at 2 PM and lasts 2 hours. The ticket includes going up to the Summit but there is no express line. Most of my "reads" state that this will take a half hour. The tour guide leaves you after the 2nd floor. So you have a 1/2 hour wait and I would imagine 1 hour for the summit. I think we will be able to make dinner especially with taking a taxi back to the ship? What do you think? Maybe we should make it for 1PM. Kathy

  3. My husband & I will be on the Viking Spirit for the Paris & Heart of Normandy. We will be arriving at the Spirit around 10:30 to 11 AM from New York. I called Viking to ask about lunch. They said they provide a buffet from 11:30 to 3 PM. We would like to reserve a tour of the Eiffel Tour. Do you think 2:00 would be a good time to meet a tour at the Eiffel Tour? I believe we have to walk about a mile from the dock to the Tower. I am trying to take jet lag into consideration. Should we go earlier? Would appreciate any thoughts you have on this topic. Kathy & Denis
