Viking was founded in 1997 and has grown to be the leading small ship travel company, offering destination-focused river, ocean and expedition voyages on all seven continents.

Viking was also named #1 for both Rivers and Oceans by Travel + Leisure in the 2022 World's Best Awards making it the only cruise line to reach the top of its categories in both publications in the same year.
