Overview
Viking Jupiter is a ship from Viking Ocean Cruises and is just as luxurious and stunning as her sister ships.
Also like her sister ships, Viking Jupiter is an intimate ship, which guarantees guests will enjoy attentive staff, spacious public spaces, and plenty of room to take in the stunning scenery.
While sailing on this gorgeous ship, you can achieve the rest and relaxation you’ve been chasing at the equally stunning spa. Stimulate your circulatory system by visiting the snow grotto and watch snowflakes slowly descend from the ceiling through chilled air, then warm your muscles back up by visiting the sauna just down the hall.
You’ll love relaxing in the casual atmosphere while enjoying the beautiful scenery surrounding you.
Viking Jupiter features all-veranda staterooms, which means whether you choose a spacious suite like the Owner’s Suite or Explorer Suite, something cozier like the Veranda stateroom or Deluxe Veranda stateroom, or something in between, you will live in luxury for your entire cruise.

Viking Jupiter
Never felt I was on a ship with 900+ passengers. We were spread out nicely! TOURS: With few exceptions (Caser in Buenos Aires & Max in Valparaiso) shore guides were weak; some read from scripts but some really knew their city. The Panoramic Valparaiso & Winery trip ($158 per person= $316) was NOT worth the additional cost when one exit further there was a winery that was. Vinamar was not a winery - they just grew grapes. The guide knew nothing about wine other than that the names of three varietals planted. FOOD: Excellent choices at all venues. Ate at the two "special restaurants" three times but never figured out how some ate there several times. COOKING SCHOOL: Only after mentioning in the mid cruise evaluation that I was never able to book a Cooking School slot, all of a sudden I was offered one. AIR PLUS: I did hear about "Air Plus" on the cruise-a way to upgrade an airplane seat. I do wish Viking had a relationship with American Express!
Pros: Excellent staff in all areas. Excellent cabins, food choices and Spa Services.
Cons: Additional Cost excursions. Not All inclusive.

Viking is the only way to cruise for us.
Pros: Smaller ship, fewer passengers
Cons: Too many sea days if you're not in to relaxing.

Great trip to the British Isles on the Jupiter. Viking never misses a beat from day 1-day 15. Ports were all unique as were the excursion offerings. Perfect to be able to blend independent exploration to tours totally planned and executed. The food was superb in every restaurant..... and the staff was trained to provide perfect customer service. Go and Enjoy.
Pros: Ship and Staff amazing
Cons: NONE

Viking Jupiter
From the moment we embarked, the staff and crew were very friendly and helpful and the ship was very inviting. The ship was very clean and appealing. The food was delicious and there was always plenty of it. The entertainment and talk shows were well planned. There were plenty of shore excursions for each port to chose from and they were well planned and organized. The disembarkation process was very well organized. Overall, the sailing on the Viking Jupiter was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend it.
Pros: It is a great ship! This is the newest one in their fleete of ocean ships.
