5 out of 5 stars
Aton is just what you expect from a Viking ship -- decor, common areas, etc. Only about 42 cabins and at least that many crew, but as usual you get to k now a few of them very well. Great experience in Egypt.
Pros: Very attentive crew, including restaurant servers as well as front desk and room stewards. Great ratio of professional egyptologists (we had about 1/22 passengers) -- these guys are educated and with seriious backgrounds.
Cons: Really can't think of any
