Tours include the Viking World Cruise, which will journey around the globe in 142 days, visiting 31 countries with 62 guided tours and overnight stays in 16 cities.
Setting sail on the Viking Vesta from Fort Lauderdale on December 28, 2027, the itinerary will include ports of call across six continents before its final destination of London on May 18, 2028.
“Our approach has always been different. At Viking, we always focus on the destination,” said Torstein Hagen, Chairman and CEO of Viking.
“Our World Cruises are thoughtfully designed to offer the opportunity to experience dozens of fascinating destinations around the world in one seamless voyage. These epic voyages are truly the ultimate in exploration.”
World Cruise guests can explore ports in Central America, transit the famed Panama Canal and journey up the West Coast of North America before crossing the Pacific Ocean and calling on islands in Hawaii and French Polynesia, including Tahiti.
From there, traverse New Zealand and Australia, call on ports in Southeast Asia and explore Africa – with multiple options for wildlife safari excursions – before reaching famous cities in Western Europe.
Those guests who wish to extend their journey may choose the 170-day Viking World Voyage III, which continues from London and includes 21 additional ports of call across Northern Europe and Scandinavia before concluding in Stockholm.
Viking also offers additional options, including the 153-day Viking World Voyage IV, which sails from Los Angeles to Stockholm and visits 37 countries, as well as the shorter 125-day Viking World Discoveries voyage departing from Los Angeles, visiting 27 countries and concluding in London.
While on board, guests can enjoy extensive cultural enrichment through lectures and entertainment, including the Viking Resident Historian program, which provides high-level historical and cultural education specific to the journey.
Guests can also immerse themselves in the world’s cultures during included excursions that provide an insight into daily life, the opportunity to connect with local customs, traditions and communities.
