Seeing Antarctica with Viking was an extraordinary adventure with a company that values their customers, their people, and the natural beauty/preservation of the environment and the animals that live there. We were privileged to have some of the best weather for this trip and arrived a half day early allowing for an additional excursion day. The trip began with pulling into a harbor of ...

The all inclusive itinerary, including airfare and hotel, at an unbeatable price was too much to pass up. Viking found every opportunity to please and celebrate the unbelievable beauty that is Antarctica. We were blessed with amazing weather and abundant animals. The mountains, ocean, snow and ice provided a spectacular backdrop for adventure. We were spoiled with deep dives in mini submarines, ...

My Wife and I have always been adventurous and this trip to Buenos Aires, Tigre, Antarctica, and Patagonia seemed a must! The pre-trip was unexpectedly beautiful, especially Tigre. It was almost like going down the Amazon (but much closer to civilization). The trip down to Ushaia and then Antarctica was EPIC and filled with adventures, a feeling of safety for both us and the environment, ...

We selected this trip because of the great itinerary, Viking's reputation for quality, and the multiple opportunities to explore Antarctica and experience the wildlife in different settings - at sea and on land. The Viking Polaris is a beautiful ship. It is accessible, with many places to wander and keep a close eye on the ocean, on whales and penguins, and on the beautiful scenery. The ship ...

This Expedition far exceeded our expectations in every way. The ship was fantastic, immaculate and beautiful. All crew members were extremely polite from the ship's crew to the expedition leaders, to the cooks and serving staff in all of the restaurants. The presentations in the Aula each day were very interesting and informative. The daily briefing by Berna and his staff were terrific and very ...

For a long time we had been thinking about visiting Antarctic but seemed like a difficult trip. Having cruised with Viking before, we received information about Viking Polaris and decided to take the chance. It was absolutely fabulous! Much more that I had imagined in every sense; from the design and styling of the ship, the destination, the kindness of the crew, the comfort of the cabins…to the ...

A trip to Antarctica has been at the top of my bucket list for a very long time. When the chance to travel there with friends came up, I was all in. The Viking Octantis is a beautiful ship and the staff was absolutely first rate, from the cabin attendants to the expedition crew. I loved the lectures provided by the various experts that were on board as well. We loved dining in "The Restaurant" ...

We booked the Antarctica cruise with Viking 2 years prior - within an hour of first learning there was to be such a cruise. They hadn’t even built the ships yet, but there was something so vital about the invitation that we jumped on it. During the two year wait we learned a lot about what to expect, mostly from a Facebook group for Viking Expedition Antarctica Cruises. As you can imagine the ...

Went to visit the seventh continent in a new ship, and wow I will consider it my best cruise ever, everything went spectacular. We were lucky to have a great weather starting with the Drake passage and then all around the northern tip of the Antarctica peninsula, everything in the ship was first class, the service, the excursions, the food, even the scandinavian furniture and of course the room. ...

We chose Viking on the recommendation of two friends, one of whom is scheduled to sail next November. This was a treat like no other. First of all, the ship is brand new which means that the furniture and libraries are all untouched. All the zodiacs and Special Operations Boats were pristine. It also meant that we were onboard with lots of dignitaries including a film crew and Liv Arnesen, the ...
