Did you have insurance with Viking? We are considering canceling our upcoming trip in August. We have insurance through Viking and if you had their insurance, I would like to know if you had any choice which hotel you were sent to and if everything was paid for. Were the buses for the excursions packed? I read they were only filling the buses halfway to allow for social distancing. Would just the two of us be able to dine at a table alone at dinner or would we definitely be seated at a larger table with other people?

So were you sent to a sub-standard hotel for the remainder of your trip? Did you have Viking trip insurance? I called them a few days ago to ask about what would happen if you test positive and if you would have a choice what hotel you had to quarantine in and they said they couldn't say but that they would assist you in finding a hotel and the hotels Viking chooses for the pre and post cruise excursions were nice hotels and they're sure it would be of that quality. From everything I've read and in talking to other people, it seems with these variants that even with vaccines and boosters people are still testing positive so it makes me nervous to think of being in close quarters with other people on a ship and potentially being kicked off to spend the rest of the time in quarantine.

We will be on Voyager in November and have never been to St. Croix. Would love to hear some advice for things to do and reliable private tour operators. Thanks.
