WORKING RESEARCH VESSELS and we have
created the world's leading scientific enrichment
environment in an expedition setting Exclusive
partnerships with the Scott Polar Research

During each expedition, visiting researchers from
partner institutions are part of the 36-person
Viking Expedition Team This diverse group of
experts lead guests through meaningful scientific
work, guiding and interpreting during shore
excursions or within The Science Laboratory

world-class lectures about their destination – and
