"Viking is great for travellers who don't just want to see the world, but want to understand it and know more about it. To learn something of other cultures and other histories."

Accommodating just 106 guests in a variety of stateroom classes, all with sweeping river views, they also boast a small rooftop pool to make the most of sunnier climates.
