Viking has confirmed it will add a fifth Longship to operate on the Seine River in 2025. The purpose-built vessel will sail the company’s eight-day Paris and the Heart of Normandy itinerary alongside Viking Fjorgyn, Viking Kari, Viking Radgrid and Viking Skaga, all brand new in 2022.
Viking has introduced a handful of new inaugural Mississippi cruises for its launch season next year on the iconic US waterway. The sailings will be operated aboard Viking’s new 386-guest purpose-built state-of-the-art Viking Mississippi, which is inspired by the Viking Longships operated in Europe.
Six new river/ocean combination cruises have been announced by Viking for 2021, offering a unique opportunity to explore Europe’s legendary rivers on a Viking Longship before seamlessly transferring to one of Viking’s state of the art ocean ships to discover Scandinavia.
