philw1776 Posted April 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Ever wonder what happens to waste aboard ship and how different things are handled? http://www.popsci.com/hidden-machines-cruise-ships?src=SOC&dom=fb#page-9 As an engineer, I'd kill for a tour of the Viking Ocean engine rooms, etc. Viking did give us a Captain's tour of the Longship river boat wheelhouse.

Peregrina651 Posted April 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Cool article. Just my level of understanding, too. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etexvrc Posted April 21, 2017 #3 Share Posted April 21, 2017 I'm with you. I too would love to tour the 'workings' of a Viking Ocean ship. On our last cruise on the Star in the West Indies, we toured the bridge which was very interesting and highly recommended. But the backbone of running a cruise ship, the engine room, kitchen and laundry would make for a fascinating tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philw1776 Posted April 21, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Viking River does kitchen tours. Amazing how small and spotless it is and the tours are as dinner is continuing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnewman Posted April 22, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Haven't managed a tour of a Viking Ocean ship yet, but did get a personal tour of a longship engine room with the chief engineer once during a river cruise. Very interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
