Don & Kully's World Cruise on Viking Neptune

Sailing from Fort Lauderdale Florida to London England via the Caribbean Sea, Pacific Ocean, South China Sea, Indian Ocean, Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean. Calling on Ports in North and South America, the South Pacific, Australia, Asia, North Africa and Europe over 138 Days. Eleven of the ports will include overnight stops allowing us to explore deeper than we normally would on cruise port calls.

The Viking Neptune

The ship is a relatively small cruise ship coming in at 47,800 tons, built in in 2022, with 465 staterooms capable of accommodating 928 guest with a crew of 465.

All Viking ships are for cruisers 18 or older, and offer many complimentary amenities including all shore excursions, wine and beer, access to the Nordic Spa, and the infinity pool. They all also offer energy-saving hybrid engines, and solar panels. Viking ships itineraries feature fewer sea days and longer port days, including overnight port stays.

Signature features on this ship include 2 swimming pools, a covered pool deck with a Jacuzzi, Bar & Grill; Viking Living Room, two Cinemas, Wintergarden poolside area, Aquavit Terrace (outdoor bar lounge with Infinity Pool and Hot Tub), Piano Bar Lounge (Torshavn), dedicated sports deck with a Walking Track and Outdoor Gym/Yoga area, Theatre Lounge & Bar, Lobby Bar, and various shops and brand boutiques.

Another unique venue on this ship (and all Viking ships), is the Snow Grotto, which is a spa retreat with powdery snow falling from the ceiling, which is said to be very therapeudic. Also in the spa complex is a sauna and steam bath, hot tub, fitness center, beauty salon, and salt-water thermal pool. This area is complimentary to all guests.

Dining options on board include a main Restaurant (dining room), buffets (Viking Deli, World Cafe), Aquavit Terrace (alfresco), specialty restaurants (Italian Grill, Chefs Table), and Private Dining.

Once on board we’ll have posts specifically about the ship. We’ll try to target the posts for both future world cruisers who want to learn about stateroom size and storage capacity as well as to show friends and family our home at sea for five months.
