  1. Booking Viking Ocean Excursions

     

    Just booked excursions using the “Wishlist” function (Jan. 26, 2020).

     

    There are many strategies suggested for getting your excursion choices.  The Wishlist feature speeds things up considerably.  I don’t understand why the Viking web site FAQ page doesn’t have detailed instructions on this topic. 

     

    I opted for a simple fast strategy by having each of us use separate Wishlists on separate My Viking Journey pages so we could divide up the excursion booking process to speed things up. 

     

    When bookings opened up at 3:01 pm EDT I already had my wishlist on the screen.   I did paid excursions, my wife did included tours.  

     

    I clicked the “more information” spot on the screen for my first wishlist excursion.  When bookings opened, I could add the tour to my shopping cart by selecting the option.  CAUTION, if there is more than one time, be sure to select the time you want before adding it to the cart because the earliest time is the default choice.  Also, both persons sharing one booking number are booked together by default unless you choose otherwise. 

     

    After booking the first choice I closed each wishlist item by clicking the X at the top right of the description box, and opened the second and subsequent tours adding each one to the cart. 

     

    When I finished my paid choices I clicked on the shopping cart icon at the top of the My Viking Journey page and entered my credit card info. As previous posters have noted, your credit info does not display even if you have already entered your card for use for on-board purchases. 

     

    My spouse’s choices of free, included bookings did not use the shopping cart.  Instead she reserved each included tour sequentially which took a little longer than adding everything to the shopping cart and paying all at once as I did. We both finished in less than ten minutes. 

     

    At the end, we looked at the calendar feature, and are separate bookings were all listed on my calendar.
