Viking Announces New Expeditions for Summer 2023

Viking announced the summer 2023 season with past favorite and all-new expeditions. In June 2023 Viking will debut its new 15-day Great Lakes Collection itinerary where guests will voyage between Toronto and Duluth. High demand has also led Viking to announce sailing dates for four existing Great

Lakes expedition voyages: eight-day Great Lakes Explorer, Undiscovered Great

Lakes and Niagara & the

Great Lakes itineraries. The

13-day Canadian Discovery itinerary will also return.

Some of the other new itineraries will take guests along the coasts of North and South America. The

16-day Canada & the

Atlantic Coastline itinerary takes guests along the St.

Lawrence Seaway and sails between Fort Lauderdale and Toronto. For guests wanting to sail beyond North America, the Patagonian Shores & Chilean Fjords itinerary offers guests 14 days exploring the beauty of Patagonia, sailing from Santiago, Chile, to Ushuaia, Argentina.

One of the longer and newest expedition voyages coming in 2023 is the Panama & Scenic South America trip. This 18-day itinerary brings together the cultures and landscapes of North, Central and South America in one trip, bringing guests from Santiago to Fort Lauderdale.

Viking will also launch the new Polar Class Viking Octantis and Viking Polaris ships, both able to carry up to 378 passengers in 189 staterooms. These ships come with expedition equipment, science labs for researchers, the Aula & Finse Terrace and, for the first time on a polar expedition cruise vessel, a Nordic Balcony.
