THEY SAY THAT A CHANGE IS AS GOOD AS A HOLIDAY, but at Viking we think that a holiday can inspire change. We believe travel should be more than just an escape from the ordinary, so when you travel with us you'll not only uncover some of the world's greatest riches, you'll almost certainly discover something about yourself, too. We offer a myriad of ways for our guests to celebrate on board, from informative lectures on history and art to exotic cooking demonstrations and musical performances. But we also know that many of our guests' most treasured memories are of a much quieter nature: moments of speechless awe while walking in the steps of ancient explorers, or inner quietude while sitting on the Sun Deck or the Aquavit Terrace marvelling at the changing landscapes passing by. EXPLORE, LEARN, UNDERSTAND Our itineraries have been expertly curated to provide these meaningful moments to our curious, well-travelled guests. Offering greater cultural insight and personal enrichment, we give you opportunities every day of your voyage to engage with your destination through its food, landscapes, culture and history. Before you travel, we get your inner journey underway by providing you with materials to help you plan and anticipate your voyage. From destination-specific photography advice by professionals to filmographies that inspire wanderlust and recommended reading that informs and enlightens, we begin to broaden your horizons long before you pack your bags. Once comfortably on board, because we know you always want to learn more, countless activities are on offer designed to educate and inspire. Instead of onboard novelties, we offer world-class lectures on history and art, tastings of vintage wines, menus inspired by local cuisine and a vast selection of fascinating books, carefully curated in partnership with London's prestigious and historic bookshop, Heywood Hill.
