Tas353 Posted April 16, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Going on my third cruise. Found that spa time is very limited in scheduling once on the ship. Plan to schedule something ahead this time. Any recommendations? Not sure if I want to do a facial or massage. I have no experience with either. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coloradocruiselover88 Posted April 16, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 16, 2023 I decided on a massage on day 3 of my cruise. I figured after flying from Denver to Stockholm and then adjusting to the time change I would very much need one. I personally don't like to have facials on a cruise because I have fair and sensitive skin and don't want to have a reaction to what ever products they use. But all of their facial descriptions sound lovely! Either one will be a real treat or indulge and get both! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springtravel Posted April 17, 2023 #3 Share Posted April 17, 2023 I had a deep tissue massage, and it was really relaxing. I was worried it might be too deep, but really wasn't. Right before my massage, a passenger had just had the nordic facial and she loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH and I have had several spa treatments on Viking and in our experience none were really great. We never had that feeling of, "Wow, that was nice." Having said that, my best manicures have always been on a Viking ship.🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare wine-wine-wine Posted May 8, 2023 #8 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Some of the best massages that either DW and I have had. I am normally wary of deep tissue but that seems to be the way to go. You then tell during treatment just how deep you like it. DW loved her facials. We will definitely be pre booking for November transatlantic.

Sunny429 Posted May 8, 2023 #9 Share Posted May 8, 2023 I had the best massage ever on the Viking Venus last year. Also, they didn’t try to sell me products afterwards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelCity Cruiser Posted May 8, 2023 #10 Share Posted May 8, 2023 I've done the Nordic Restart massage twice and have my 3rd one booked for our BIE cruise next month. Loved both of them. The final scalp massage put me right out both times!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
