Viking Orion Cruises: Explore the World in Style

Viking Orion represents the sophisticated approach to ocean cruising that Viking Ocean Cruises has become known for since expanding beyond their river cruise roots. Launched in 2018 as the fifth ship in Viking's ocean fleet, this elegant vessel carries just 930 guests, creating an intimate atmosphere that sets it apart from mega-ships carrying thousands.

The ship's Scandinavian design emphasizes light-filled spaces, clean lines, and understated luxury. You'll find spacious staterooms where most come with verandas, multiple dining venues included in your fare, and enrichment programs that dive deep into the destinations you visit. Viking Orion sails to some of the world's most captivating regions, with current itineraries featuring Asia, Alaska, and the South Pacific. Departures from ports like Vancouver, Seward, and Hong Kong position you perfectly for exploring everything from Alaska's glacier-carved coastlines to Asia's ancient cultures and the tropical paradises of the South Pacific.

This ship appeals to travelers who value destination immersion over onboard entertainment spectacles. There's no casino, no kids' clubs, and no crowded pool decks with blaring music. Instead, you'll discover thoughtful touches like The Explorers' Lounge with its panoramic views, an infinity pool at the stern, and The Wintergarden for afternoon tea. Viking's approach includes overnight stays in port and late departures, giving you more time to experience each destination authentically. With 60 upcoming sailings starting at $5,999, Viking Orion offers numerous opportunities to experience this refined style of ocean cruising across some of the world's most remarkable waters.
