As we approach Christmas, we reflect on what
a year 2022 has been as we celebrated our 25th
anniversary. In what has been our biggest year yet,
we welcomed 11 new ships to our fleet, introduced
two new destinations, won several awards, and have
just welcomed Viking Orion back to Australian shores
for the first time since 2020.
Travel is well and truly back, and we have loved
seeing so many of your familiar faces on our ships
around the world.
In this special Christmas issue of Viking Explorer
Society magazine, we look at the history of Christmas
markets and highlight some of our favourites. We
take you on a journey along the Danube during the
festive season and have some delicious Christmas
recipes for you to enjoy at home.
We can't thank you enough for your support this
year. We wish you and your families a very merry
Christmas, and we look forward to helping you
create many wonderful Viking memories next year.
