OUR NEWEST SHIP FOR THE MISSISSIPPI Viking has celebrated a major construction milestone with the float out of the new custom-built Viking Mississippi. Set to debut in June 2022 the ship will sail Viking's highly anticipated voyages on the Lower and Upper Mississippi River, between New Orleans and St. Paul. The five-deck vessel with cutting-edge design, expansive windows and comfortable amenities will make it the largest and most modern ship in the region.
