Viking is destination focused, culturally enriching and carefully curated. Experience it for yourself on Viking Orion
‘I love the Scandi look with clean lines, light woods, woven textiles and an abundance of natural light’ – Andrea Black, journalist
Designed for discerning travellers with an interest in science, history, culture and cuisine, Viking is an awardwinning, small-ship cruise line that sails the rivers and oceans of the world including Northern Europe, the Americas, Asia and the Mediterranean. Its elegant, state-of-the-art ships are designed for the thinking person; featuring serene Scandinavian spaces, original works by famed Norwegian artist Edvard Munch and a library of books carefully curated by London bookseller Heywood Hill. Every detail of a Viking ship is designed to enhance your experience of the destinations you visit. On board you can converse with the resident historian, be inspired at the most high-tech planetarium at sea and immerse yourself in the Scandinavian spa facilities – featuring Viking’s exclusive snow grotto – as well as a steam room, sauna and hydrotherapy mineral pool. Don’t miss out on Viking’s gastronomic offerings. With eight different destinationinspired dining options, ever-changing menus and an extensive wine list curated by Viking’s master sommeliers from boutique cellars across the globe, guests are spoilt for choice. And if you want to brush up on your culinary skills, there are cooking classes hosted by Viking’s highly trained chefs at The Kitchen Table. Viking’s itineraries are designed to maximise the time travellers spend exploring. Guests enjoy a shore excursion in every port and an exclusive Viking Culture Curriculum programme, which includes art, music, cooking demonstrations and port talks, as well as exclusive entry to cultural treasures all around the world. Its aim is for guests to experience the culture like a local. Viking guests also benefit from inclusive value – the fare includes everything you need – from meals and beverages to shore excursions and WiFi. It’s also worth noting what isn’t in the package: no kids, no photographers, no casinos and no nickel-and-diming.
