NINE travel agents recently had the opportunity to experience Viking’s newest ocean ship, Viking Vesta (CW 01 Jul 2025), sailing the eight-day ‘Iconic Western Mediterranean’ itinerary.
Hosted by the cruise line’s PR manager Nicole Tapster, the voyage departed Rome and concluded in Barcelona, featuring stops in Florence, Marseille, Sete, and Villefranche-sur-Mer.
A highlight for the group was the ‘Le Castellet & Bandol Wine Tasting’ excursion, which saw them explore the historic 11th-century hilltop village of Le Castellet (pictured) on a guided walk, followed by wine tastings and local snacks at Domaine de Frgate in Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer.
On board, agents enjoyed a Beatles-themed night at The Star Theatre, Korean- and Californian-inspired menus at The Chef’s Table, sunset drinks in the Explorer’s Lounge, and Norwegian waffles at Mamsen’s. JM
