THE THINKING PERSON’S CRUISE
Created for curious, experienced travellers
We all travel to explore, to learn, to understand. At Viking, we believe travel should be more than just a trip — it should be a doorway to cultural insight and personal enrichment. That is why our cruise itineraries are designed to help you explore and engage with your destination through its food, culture, countryside and customs.
Onboard activities are designed for enrichment and renewal, offering lectures on history and art, cooking demonstrations of regional favourites and libraries stocked with books specially selected by London bookshop Heywood Hill. On shore, you might accompany the ship’s chef to a local market; go behind the scenes at a famous theatre company, or view a museum’s private collection. On expedition itineraries, you can explore even further by assisting in eldwork during landings or learning photography techniques from a professional.
Our aim is to help guests feel more connected—to newfound friends and the world.
