ART, HISTORY, CULTURE
With various cultural partnerships in place around the world including the British
Museum, Highclere Castle, and Heywood Hill literary collectors, Viking also brings
its guests closer to art, history and culture while on shore. You might accompany the
ship's chef on a visit to a local market, step behind the scenes at a famous theatre
company, tour a chocolate or car factory or view private collections and hidden vaults
at world-class museums.
EMBRACING HYGGE
Underneath all of this excitement and at the root of every Thinking Person's Cruise is a
recognition of hygge (pronounced "hyh-geh") – a Nordic way of life. In embracing our
strong cultural roots, we ensure that your inspiring Viking cruise is also one of comfort
and contentment. From a peaceful cup of tea enjoyed to that surprising conversation
sparked with a like-minded traveller, our aim is to help you feel more connected – to
new friends and the world – on every single journey. We've never been more easily
connected to the rest of the world and the golden discoveries that await there.
Now that's something to think about.
"If you're a curious traveller, keen on art and
culture and looking to learn more about the
destinations you visit, then you' ll appreciate
Viking's educational focus. For me, it's the
thinking person's cruise line."
