Viking Polaris

Viking Polaris

Viking Polaris will follow its sister ship, Viking Octantis to usher in the new Viking Expeditions line. The famous river cruise line now offers an adventurous journey of a lifetime while maintaining its signature service and world-class amenities. Guided excursions, expedition gear, food, drinks, and Wi-Fi are all included on this sleek ship, which is designed perfectly to give guests a smooth, comfortable trip. Experience a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the Arctic with Viking’s state-of-the-art expedition equipment and a team of expert resident scientists onboard.

Shore Excursions

Viking Polaris has revolutionized the expedition experience with multiple innovations. The Hangar is an all-new way to embark on your journey. A marina is stored inside the ship, allowing you to board away from the waves and winds of the sea. You can then traverse the waters in a compatible rigid inflatable boat (RIB) with a convertible cover. Hikes, zodiac, and kayak excursions are also available, all of which are guided by skilled Viking experts. Onboard, you will discover endless enrichment programming led by both Viking's resident scientists and outside experts via partnerships with the University of Cambridge’s Scott Polar Research Institute and Cornell Lab of Ornithology.

Many Dining Options

Viking Polaris contains a variety of mouth-watering dining options, all of which are included in your cruise fare! Aside from the main dining room, The Restaurant, you can also choose to dine in Manfredi's Italian Restaurant, The Chef's Table, The Kitchen Table, or The World Café, a venue that features live cooking stations serving a wide range of international cuisine. With their scrumptious bakery and room service both open 24 hours, you’ll never go hungry onboard Viking Polaris.
