If the shore excursions could proceed at a more leisurely pace and provide the participants, the opportunity to shop and take pictures at some of the venues it would be a bit more enjoyable. If we wanted to look at something and take a picture, we had to rush to catch up to the group.
Pros: Great ship, attentive staff, great meals and entertainment
Cons: Some of the Shore Excursions were

Forgot to mention the spa - it was wonderful and we used it almost daily!
Pros: The staff! Excellent customer service, from Housekeeping to Guest Services to Dining. Great room. Great ship! Lots of common areas AND quiet areas. All in all, a terrific experience.
Cons: Most often, the food could have been hotter. With all the heat lamps, we still found some things (like the potatoes and even the meat) lukewarm at best. This should be an easy fix. Also, some dimmers on the bathroom lights would be great. They are very bright!

Viking is overall a wonderful cruise company. The Saturn is an ocean cruise with 930 passengers. The ship is beautiful and did not seem crowded. The staff is exemplary. Friendly, helpful, polite and happy. Having been in Europe several times, we opted not to go into port in Rome and Florence. Relaxing on the ship was the best. There was not enough time to enjoy either city after having to be bused in for 1.5 hours each way. The crew was terrific and always upbeat. All in all, we liked it as much as our 2 cruises on The Crystal Symphony and The Crystal Serenity in 2010 and 2013. We would recommend Viking wholeheartedly. We have not been on their river voyages but the ocean cruise is fabulous.
Pros: Wonderful staff. Immaculate ship. Fabulous food. Very organized. Staff remembers your name and goes out of their way to please you.
Cons: Too many ports to visit with limited time. Monte Carlo should be overnight. Marseille could be dropped. Corfu could be dropped with an extra day in Venice.
