As most of you know, Mike and I didn’t have a BIG trip last year… we had lots
of small(er) ones. I’ve been itching to do a BIG trip again so sometime in the
middle of last year I started looking up cruise options. I just so happened to
stumble upon an itinerary I really liked: Central America.
Central America was never high on my bucket list (if even on there at all)
, but I had never been to Central America (or Caribbean until last year)… I
loved the idea of a cruise for a couple reasons:
1. I love that your hotel comes with you wherever you go. You don’t have to
worry about transportation from place to place or figuring out where you’re
going to stay.
2. A cruise allows you to hit multiple countries easily.
3. It’s more relaxing. I would say most of my travels are never really
“vacations” in the fact that there is no relaxing involved… it’s usually
always go, go, go.
The particular itinerary I saw was from Viking. I had always heard amazing things about Viking, going back to when I
interned at a travel agency. I loved that it was a smaller ship (around
900 people) and I loved that there were no kids on board. They seemed honest
in their sales pitch and although it was more pricey than some of the other
cruise lines, I felt it would be worth the money.
I will wait to do my final review of Viking towards the end of our trip, but
here are some photos of our ship, the Viking Star:
