Not sure how to search for Cruise Photo Albums.  I would be interested in seeing any albums of a Viking Homelands Ocean cruise.  Thanks so much.

Dear Phil,

Can't thank you enough for sharing your photographs of your Homelands Cruise.  We will be traveling during that same time this year.  I have only started viewing your pictures and will continue to enjoy them.  I must ask you how you took these pictures.  They are really remarkable😍

Great pictures! We did Homelands in September 2018. It was fun to see all these places again from a different perspective.

Phil, thanks for sharing your photo album of the Viking Homelands cruise. It looks as if you had good weather for the cruise. We are taking this cruise in July. Can you advise which excursion you took in Copenhagen? It appears comprehensive, Jim

Copenhagen City tour  3 HR  INCLUDED 9:30AM 850 years of remarkable history during this tour. The Little Mermaid statue sitting in the harbor at Langelinie and visit the courtyard at Amalienborg Palace. Copenhagen’s largest monument, the Gerfion Fountain. For the final, either enjoy a panoramic sightseeing drive, pass many of Copenhagen’s beautiful sites such as the Royal Winter Residence and Rosenborg Castle.

Demonstrations of rune inscriptions, shield painting and coin striking.

We did the jazz canal cruise in Copenhagen. We picked the last departure and it was near sunset so the lighting was amazing. Great time.
