8 Tips to Maximize Your Time Onboard the Viking Sea


Viking Ocean Cruises’ second ship – the Viking Sea – has now set sail, and we’ve got tips for how to make the most of the cruising experience onboard and ashore.

On the Sea, there is no shortage of creature comforts, from the spacious private accommodations to the double-decker Explorers’ Lounge observation venue. Everywhere guests turn, homey furniture invites them to relax and enjoy the passing scenery or pick up one of the ship’s many books stocked throughout, or even enjoy a board game or interactive variety at the fun touch screen tables.
