We used Eidfjord Autorent. The car was about $250 for the day, all inclusive—less than the cost of the cruise excursions . We spent at least an hour wondering the falls with no need to rush. Then we drove up to the steppes area and over to the Hardanger Bridge. Ilyana provided a great map and recommendations.

We were in 4059 on Viking Homelands. There were no tenders and the room was quiet. The only downside was the chairs were facing the rear of the ship.

I found the list with a search, thanks for letting me know it existed.

Yes, the bed orientation was the same as the chairs. As a first time cruiser, it was not something I would have even know to ask about.

Cabin 4059 has the bump out (pilaster) if someone is compiling a list. Is there a list for cabins whose chairs face the front of the ship? 4059 chairs face the back. It wasn’t a huge issue, but I would prefer facing forward on future cruises.

Azulann or DGHOC—do you know anyone who did the Getabergen nature hike on Mariehamn? I have searched for reviews without luck. Thank you for any information. I am enjoying the trip report. We sail July 4!

After I got the first message, I tried again and then got a message that I didn’t have a booking. I did the online chat and had to re-enter my booking number. Everything was back to normal after that.

I had the same message Clay.

I believe it is 12 noon Pacific time in the United States. At least that was our opening time. So for us it was 2 pm central time in the US. Good luck. We did not have any issues getting the excursions we wanted.

Search on the cruise name—often someone has shared pricing and excursions from an earlier cruise. Just keep in mind that excursions and prices can change. The excursions with prices for our July homelands cruise were posted about 100 days out. I had plenty of time to plan as I couldn’t book until 67 days out.

Try the chat feature on My Viking Journey. If you are in a DV room, I believe that you are guaranteed a reservation. They should be able to help.

That would make me happy! I like her music.

We are doing the Homelands Stockholm to Bergen this summer with the 3 day Iceland extension. I can give you feedback in late July. It really is only 2 to 2 and 1/2 days days as our flight from Bergen doesn’t arrive until 5 pm on day 1.

How long do the queues get in the summer months? We will do this on our own, but don’t want to have to book ahead of time.

What about playing cards? Are they available to use?
