With destination-focused journeys on all seven continents, additional departures are now available across the company’s award-winning ocean and expedition fleet, including the most popular itineraries.
The new sailing dates include voyages on the latest ocean ship, the Viking Lyra, which is scheduled to join the fleet in 2028 and will spend her inaugural season in the Mediterranean and Scandinavia.
Viking have also unveiled a new expedition itinerary, Into the Antarctic Circle, which will offer travellers the rare opportunity to cross the 66°33′ line of latitude, which marks the Antarctic Circle, while exploring the “White Continent” – an honoured milestone among polar explorers.
“Our guests are curious travellers who like to connect with the destinations they visit in a meaningful way,” said Torstein Hagen, Chairman and CEO of Viking.
“We have always crafted journeys that are designed to bring our guests closer to history, culture and nature in each destination and we are pleased to offer an even wider selection of itineraries and departure dates in the years to come.”
With a fleet of small, all-veranda sister ships designed specifically for ocean voyages and state-of-the-art Polar Class expedition ships, Viking offers more than 100 itineraries across all five oceans.
