Reviewer read
One of the lowest-rated ships we track. Not one of its best values.
Norwegian Viva rates higher overall than 18% of the ships we track. Cabins is its strongest showing. The weak spot is value.

The one caution
5.6out of 10 for value
Higher than only 4% of ships. The typical ship scores 6.96.
Of the 78 reviewers who wrote about it, 21% were positive.
Everything else, in two lines
Three are good without being remarkable: cabins (higher than 81% of ships), ship quality (higher than 63% of ships) and disembarkation (higher than 50% of ships).
Nine fall below the fleet: embarkation, family, activities, fitness, service, dining, entertainment, public areas and value. They rate higher than 4% to 35% of ships.

- Too few reviewers mentioned accessibility here.
- Whether it's good value today
- Reviews describe the fare people paid, not the one you'll be quoted.
