Our fleet of elegant ocean ships now sails around the world, with itineraries visiting six continents. In 2022, we will perfect expedition cruising with the launch of Viking Expeditions and two new purpose-built vessels that will sail voyages to the Arctic, Antarctica and North America’s Great Lakes. AND NOW, WE WILL BRING MODERN EXPLORATION TO THE MISSISSIPPIwith destinationfocused journeys along the full length of the river. With the introduction of Viking Mississippi, we set out to create a new kind of ship for the region—one that is streamlined and more modern. A sleek, sophisticated ship for 386 guests, every stateroom features a private veranda or French balcony, allowing you to get closer to your destination. In true Viking style, our ship will offer clean Scandinavian design, light-filled rooms, unique public spaces, fresh regional fare and personalized service.

In many destinations you will dock in the center of town, allowing you to stroll off and begin exploring.
