Tokyo Viking
Viking was founded in 1997 and provides destination-focused voyages on oceans, rivers and lakes around the world.

Designed for experienced travelers with interests in science, history, culture and cuisine, Chairman Torstein Hagen often says Viking offers experiences for The Thinking Person.


Viking has more than 250 awards to its name, including being rated #1 for Rivers, #1 for Oceans and #1 for Expeditions by Condé Nast Traveler and voted at the top of its categories by Travel + Leisure.

No other cruise line has ever received these same honors by both publications at the same time.
