Viking Ocean Cruises · Luxury
Only 15 of the 176 ships we grade score higher than Viking Venus. It takes 7.6 of 10. It is unusually roomy: 51 tons of ship per guest against a fleet median of 41. Staffing is generous at 2.0 guests per crew member, against 2.4 across the fleet.
Passengers rate it highest on the food, which sits beside the grade rather than inside it.
Graded against every other ship we track, on one curve. The method.
On today’s fares, yes — the best sailing we can currently price scores 7.8 out of 10 for value, a genuinely good deal for a ship of its class.
That is a 23-night Asia sailing departing 21 September 2028, from $6,999 per person in a balcony cabin — about $304 a night. A Value Score of 5.0 means a sailing costs what genuinely comparable cruises cost: same class of ship, same region, similar length. Above 5.0 the fare beats that going rate; below it, it does not. Viking Venus grades 7.6 of 10 on vessel class, and 4.6 of 5 from 326 traveler reviews. How the score is built.
