Shore Travel’s Cruise Specialist, Renee Lomas, experienced Viking Saturn with her mum for a seven night voyage from Athens to Chioggia (Venice) in October. “I always knew I would enjoy Viking, but it surpassed even my incredibly high expectations” says Renee. From the understated, quiet luxury of the Scandinavian design to the quality and range of shore excursions, the experience was wonderful – “it even converted my mum to cruising!”  Excursion highlights included an interesting stroll around the beautiful Mediterranean cities with a knowledgeable and well-spoken guide, mountain biking in the hills of Corfu or speeding out to Hvar in a luxury RIB boat!

Renee’s top cruising tip:  Book your shore excursions and specialty dining as soon as they open online (via your cruise personaliser) to be able to choose from the full range of options. The popular excursions fill very quickly.
