Viking’s 2027–2028 ocean and expedition voyages are now open for booking.

The new sailing dates include voyages on Viking’s newest ocean ship, the Viking Lyra, which is scheduled to join the fleet in 2028 and will spend its inaugural season in the Mediterranean and Scandinavia.

Viking has also unveiled a new expedition itinerary, Into the Antarctic Circle, which will offer travellers the rare opportunity to cross the 66°33′ line of latitude, which marks the Antarctic Circle.

Viking’s small, all-veranda sister ships are designed specifically for ocean voyages, plus the cruise line also offers Polar Class expedition ships. In total Viking offers more than 100 itineraries across all five oceans and on all seven continents.
