with guests. Views on English football were
exchanged with a waiter from Bali (his
knowledge was impressive). I could have talked
for hours with the sommelier from Sri Lanka in
The Chef's Table. A Mexican waiter gave me a
glimpse of the country's west coast. And the
bar manager in the Explorers' Lounge gave
me a detailed itinerary for my upcoming visit
to his homeland of North Macedonia. This
enchanting aspect of a Viking journey is the
icing on the rich cake of life on board.

THE ART OF SLOWING DOWN
As rewarding as it is to explore on shore, time
spent on a Viking ocean ship is an indulgence.
You can begin your day with a leisurely
breakfast, pick up a book from one of the
numerous collections, enjoy lunch in the sun,
and have a game of shuffleboard or putting.
You may also relax with a spa treatment,
expand your knowledge at a lecture and
listen to a classical string trio over a pre-dinner
cocktail. Then it is your choice of when, where
and what time to take dinner, sitting with
whomever you like—with house wine always
complimentary and of extremely good quality.
ENTERTAINMENT FOR ALL
As the night draws in, the choice of
entertainment has been designed to appeal
to all tastes. The Star Theatre will feature
everything from a high-definition film of a
beloved opera to a lively production of ABBA's
biggest hits with guests singing along. On my
recent trip I loved the show tunes, with songs
from the likes of The Greatest Showman and Les
Misérables by the talented cast, with impressive
digital backdrops.
