Viking Expeditions

Our expedition ships are optimally sized for expeditions: small enough to navigate remote areas, yet large enough to provide speed, superior handling, and stability in the roughest seas. Encounter some of nature’s most fascinating wildlife north of the Arctic Circle, from polar bears to walruses, whales, ringed seals and Svalbard reindeer. In Antarctica, guests are likely to see seals and whales, as well as a variety of penguin and migratory bird species.

Viking offers a variety of excursions, virtually all included in your cruise fare, from RIB sailings and zodiac landings to tranquil kayak outings and underwater submarine dives. Hike through magnificent landscapes and access remote areas, all led by an experienced team of experts skilled in operating in rugged and polar environments. Or try a unique experience with one of our exclusive, limited-capacity optional excursions.

Nordic Spa

Experience the ultimate healthy Scandinavian traditions from the Sauna and Snow Grotto to a relaxing massage.



Explorers Lounge

Inspired by the trade routes of Vikings, the Explorers' Lounge is the ideal place for guests to share their discoveries over an aquavit or a craft beer while sampling fine Scandinavian fare. Central to the Explorers' Lounge is Mamsen's, a casual gourmet deli inspired by Norwegian cuisine, from smoked salmon to open-faced sandwiches and locally sourced charcuterie and cheeses. The daily "Waffle Hour" provides mouth-watering samples of the beloved treat.



Aquavit Terrace

Enjoy mulled wine, hot chocolate or ship-matured aquavit and relax with new friends in this Viking-inspired, light-filled space while taking in the stunning beauty that surrounds you.

The World Cafe

The main dining venue offers a wide variety of international flavors in casually elegant surroundings, including Viking-exclusives such as a 24-hour bakery and coffee station; seafood and sushi bar; grill and open galley.



The Hangar

An industry first, this enclosed in-ship marina permits the launch of small excursion craft through the ship’s slipway. Guests can embark on RIBs shielded from wind and waves from a flat, stable surface inside the ship and glide into the water to depart on their excursion. They re-enter The Hangar after excursions via the slipway to the protected marina before disembarking their RIBs.
