Viking Traveller 2nd Issue

Welcome to the second
edition of Viking Traveller.
Did you know that penguins can swim at 20 miles an hour? Who
knew? But there are more facts to learn about these intriguing birds
and the totem poles of Alaska, plus a guide to the Mediterranean,
all in this issue. I hope you too will enjoy reading about a journey
along the Danube, and John Wilmott’s meanderings along the
Rhine. My first ever river cruise was on the Rhine over 25 years
ago and it’s still a river that is very close to my heart. Like many of
you, I’ve also spent many happy hours in Bergen, Barcelona and
Venice and our guides to these cities brought memories flooding
back. Just Odessa to tick of my list now and a couple of those top
10 views and the Mississippi, and, and, and! That’s the great thing
about travel, just when you think you’ve seen it all, something else
sparks your imagination and that wish list gets even longer.
Happy travelling, everyone.
Best wishes,
Managing Director, Viking UK
