Viking Mars

LATTE is just back from five days aboard Viking Mars having cruised from Cairns to Darwin on this still-mint condition, 930-passenger ship that was launched in May 2022.

Viking marked the company’s 25th anniversary on 30 September with a historic celebration in Amsterdam.

With the release of the new full-length film, Downton Abbey: A New Era, the team at Viking Australia treated guests to a special lunch and a screening of the movie, taking them to a Sydney theatre in a red double-decker London bus.

Viking will deploy its next ocean ship to Australian waters in its debut year, the cruise line has revealed. Viking Mars, the newest and eighth vessel in its class, was floated out for the first time last week at the Ancona shipyard of Fincantieri in Italy.
