Founded in 1997, Viking Cruises offers river cruises, ocean cruises and combined voyages that will allow you to enjoy some countries along their coasts and riversides. The hallmark of the company is the cultural immersion and their emphasis on destination-focused itineraries ensures that passengers immerse themselves in the history, art, and culture of the regions they visit.

Viking’s fleet is known for its elegant Scandinavian design and their ocean ships can get you to Scandinavia and the Baltic Sea, North & South America, Caribbean Sea, Asia, Australia, and Africa. Viking Ocean ships’ carry only 930 guests, this smaller size (compared with other companies) allows them to get direct access into most city ports. These cruises include outside staterooms, free unlimited WiFi, free launderettes, free access to their spa, free wine, beer and soft drinks with meals.

Viking River Cruises navigate along rivers of Europe, Russia, China, Southeast Asia, and Egypt with more than 60 vessels. These cruises take you to Europe’s most popular cities but also to small charming towns you’ll never forget. Usually, this type of ships only transport 150-200 passengers, so the experience is more relaxing than in bigger boats. These cruises usually have just one restaurant, but they have chefs who make sure that customers are comfortable and enjoy the gastronomic offer. These all-inclusive cruises feature outside staterooms, WiFi, soft drinks, wine and beer with meals and one shore excursion in every port. 

With a commitment to sustainability and a dedication to guest satisfaction, Viking Cruises has earned numerous awards and consistently delivers an enriching, immersive voyage for those seeking a culturally enriching travel experience on the high seas. In 2023, Viking was elected best river cruise and best ocean cruise by Readers’ Choice Awards of Condé Nast Traveler.
