Viking Mississippi
March
Pros: Ship great, staff nice, nice launderette
Cons: Seriously understaffed,
Recommended: No
Lack of adequate staffing detracts from overall enjoyment. Main dining room had some severe waits for food, ( staffing again ) . Recommendation would be neutral. Maybe even suggest American Queen. Viking does not seem totally committed to this river cruising. Probably our last ever on Viking. There are many people in the “cult”, while mildly complaining, only see Viking. Lower Mississippi is a challenging trip for people with some mobility issues. Unless a total fan, would not recommend Graceland; lots of standing/walking. Included excursions are fair, must like plantations.

Cruising the Mighty Mississippi
February
Pros: The guest music groups were great, as was the Viking Trio
Cons: The Restaurant did not vary the menu from day to day
Recommended: Yes
The ship was lovely, clean and well thought out. Viking still needs to iron out some of the logistics, timing, and excursions for this new cruise, but they really do a nice job of trying to please everyone.
