Viking has announced a brand new ship for the Mekong River, set to debut in 2025.

Called Viking Tonle, the 80-guest vessel will join its identical sister ship, the Viking Saigon, which debuted in 2022, and will sail between Kampong Cham, Cambodia and Mỹ Tho, Vietnam as part of Viking’s popular 15-day Magnificent Mekong itinerary. 

Viking Tonle is currently under construction and is scheduled to debut in October 2025. It is being built specifically to navigate the Mekong River, and will feature 40 outside staterooms with hotel-style beds and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors with a Veranda or French Balcony. Guests on the three-deck vessel will also enjoy a spa and fitness centre, pool and open-air Sky bar on the upper deck.

To meet strong demand for Mekong River voyages, Viking has added sailing dates in 2025 and has now opened the entire 2026 season for booking.

 

Magnificent Mekong

During the 15-day ‘Magnificent Mekong’ itinerary, guests will explore the cultural treasures of Vietnam and Cambodia with 16 guided tours. Hotel stays in Hanoi, Siem Reap and Ho Chi Minh City bracket an eight-day Mekong River voyage during which guests will explore Hanoi’s Old Quarter, attend a performance by Apsara dancers, visit Ta Prohm, wander the Khmer temple complex of Angkor Wat, and see the sights of Phnom Penh by cyclo rickshaw. On the river portion of the itinerary, guests will discover silk towns, fishing villages, monasteries and floating markets.

From now through Nov. 30, 2023, Viking is offering the Explorers’ Sale that includes a $25 deposit, reduced airfare and special fares on select ocean, expedition and river voyages, including the ‘Magnificent Mekong’ itinerary.
