For your how to embarkation question: we received email from Viking as below for boarding our ship Sea. We are looking forward to seeing you onboard!
Dear Viking Guest,
Thank you for choosing Viking for your upcoming
Mediterranean Odysseyvoyage. We would like to update you regarding your docking location in Venice.
As you may be aware, the Italian government has announced that cruise ships will no longer be allowed to travel through the city's canals. To ensure you enjoy time in Venice,
VIKING SEA will dock at the nearby port of Fusina.
- If you have transfer arrangements through Viking, you will be transfered to the Venice Cruise Terminal (Stazione Marittima) to drop off your luggage on embarkation day. From there, you will be transferred to the ship in Fusina.
- If you are traveling independently, please direct your driver to take you to the Venice Cruise Terminal (Stazione Marittima) to drop off your luggage on embarkation day. From there, you will be transferred to the ship in Fusina.
Venice shore excursions will operate from the ship's alternative docking location in Fusina.
Should you have any questions regarding this update before your sailing, please contact your Travel Advisor or Viking at 1-855-300-3970, Sunday through Saturday, 5:00 AM to 7:00 PM, PT.
We look forward to welcoming you on board.
Sincerely,
Viking
