Ocean Cruise Destinations
Experience the world in depth, and at a relaxed pace. The small size of our elegant, 930-passenger ships gives you access to fascinating ports that larger ships simply cannot reach. Our ocean and world cruises traverse six continents and offer enriching cultural experiences.


Highlights of a Viking Ocean Cruise
On a Viking ocean cruise, you will sail into the heart of your destination. From our prime, central berths in the world’s great cities such as Venice, London, Hong Kong and Sydney, and in seldom-visited ports like Kotor, Montenegro and Scotland’s Shetland Islands, enriching cultural discoveries are just a short walk from your ship. Further, you will spend more time in port, with overnight stays in virtually all ports of embarkation and disembarkation.


Ship
Viking Mars
Overview

Expand your horizons on this comfortable, award-winning ship, intimate and thoughtfully created by experienced nautical architects and designers to enrich your interaction with your destination in every way.

Bars & Lounges

Viking Bar

The Viking Living Room

The ideal setting for relaxation and conversation, The Viking Living Room draws guests together. Spacious seating, melodic piano tunes, live entertainment and planned activities foster rich camaraderie. And its well-curated Viking Library informs even the best-read traveler. Adorned with nautical touches from Viking days, including the clinker-built bar inspired by ancient longships, it is the most inspired living room at sea.


The Atrium

Relax in the soaring atrium and mingle with like-minded guests as you enjoy a cocktail from the Viking Bar.


The Wintergarden 

There is no better place on ship than a visit to the Wintergarden. This charming, airy space around the main pool is perfect for relaxing in clean, uncluttered Scandinavian-designed environment. Even here, our focus is on enrichment, as this is the place to witness a tea ceremony, or indulge in an afternoon tea service, complete with hand-selected teas, finger sandwiches and pastries.


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.

Activities & Entertainment

The Theater

The Theater, features live performances that bring you closer to the culture of our destinations. Sometimes, the destination we connect you to exists solely in the realm of an otherworldly theatrical journey, as is the case with beautifully themed shows.


Infinity Pool

One of the first of its kind at sea, gives you a sense of swimming in the heart of your destination. Its glass backing is infused with the spirit of exploration. This relaxing setting also offers an inviting hot tub. Relax on the teak deck, which transforms into the Aquavit Terrace in the evening.


Main Pool 

The heated Main Pool and hot tub provide a calming oasis in any weather. The retractable roof allows for any-time swims and soaks. A haven for relaxation, it's a fun spot to socialize during a day at sea. It's been thoughtfully designed for lap swims, leisurely wading or enjoying a drink poolside.


The Spa

We also reinvented the spa experience; drawing upon the holistic wellness philosophy of Nordic culture. To stimulate your circulatory system visit our snow grotto where snowflakes gently descend from the ceiling through chilled air, then invigorate yourself in the sauna, following a centuries-old Nordic tradition.

Australia & Pacific
For idyllic beaches, relaxed coastal towns and an abundance of varying cultures, theres no looking past Australia and the South Pacific. And the great thing about cruise is that you can visit so many different destinations in the one seamless itinerary. For South Pacific itineraries, cruises tend to depart from cruising hubs on the east coast of Australia, with options to visit New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, Tonga, Samoa and Papua New Guinea. Some trans Pacific cruises also give you the opportunity to explore French Polynesia and the Tahitian islands. Locally, cruises offer some beautiful itinerary options. Explore the wilderness of Tasmania, beach hop in Queensland, or visit some of the highlights of Western Australias stunning coastline, just to name a few.

A rare discovery awaits the traveler who ventures onto this remote island of Komodo.

Named after evolutionist Charles Darwin, this tropical city on the top end of Australia is a former frontier town with a rough-and-tumble past.
