everybody it's Bruce here with traveling with Bruce welcome to my channel today
we're gonna talk about this ship right here the Viking star she's a beauty she
was launched only three years ago in 2015 coming in at 48,000 tons and to
give you an idea of what that means a typical carnival ship that can hold
3,000 passengers or a ship like a princess cruise liner or a hone America
cruise liner these ships come in around 95,000 tons
well double this weight but they'll have anywhere from two to three thousand
passengers this ship nine hundred and thirty passengers that's it
she's 745 feet long she's 95 feet wide and she has a crew of 465 and that's is
a very high crew ratio to passenger ratio basically one one crew member for
two passengers very high excellent service all rooms balcony rooms no
inside rooms whatsoever are available on this cruise ship everyone gets a
beautiful view there are no children allowed on the cruise either everyone
has to be 18 and over and it makes for a different cruise experience from
Carnival or Disney or Royal Caribbean or anyone else free Wi-Fi is included in
your fare there's no extra charge for any of the specialty dining restaurants
here's a peek at one of the balcony rooms by the way and with a king-size
bed there's another one right here a little larger unit here with a seating
area the larger balcony rooms are a little more expensive obviously they
come with a fully stocked minibar and you can bring alcohol on board the ship
by the way if you WA think it off the ship and the Caribbean or want to bring
a bottle rum onboard no problem enjoy your drinking your own booze instead of
theirs they don't mind this here is the winter garden beautiful area to have
some tea or coffee in the afternoon royal cake visit with some friends and
hang out beautiful place short excursions are also included in all
fairs so if you're going off the ship for the day you can
take advantage of a prepaid short excursion that's included and it these
are very popular as I said Wi-Fi is included so you can take your tablet
check your email or send messages back home spa is also included you don't have
to pay extra to use any of the spa facilities so whether you want to go not
into the spa the water or into the sauna or like this gentleman you want to get
in the sauna first get nice and hot and then go into the the ice room you can go
in there or do what I'd like to do I wouldn't mind being this guy getting
under that bucket there and getting drenched and cooling down and telling
off a little bit taking a rest or lying down here one of these he bit louder
look at those nice nice ship no casino on board there are no water slides on
work because there are no kids on board it's a quiet ship a lot of quiet nooks
to go read a book or just relax enjoy the view here's the obviously the pool
with the roof closed in overhead this is the back of the ship where there's an
infinity pool just absolutely marvelous the ship has it all now the schedule for
