Viking has opened bookings for its 2026 expedition cruises.
Adventurous travelers can start planning now for bucket-list trips to Antarctica, the Great Lakes, Canada, the Panama Canal and many other itineraries offered during the cruise line’s 2026 expedition season.
Some of the trips that are now available for booking include Viking’s 13-day “Antarctic Explorer” cruise, which features a week of exploring the White Continent, plus scenic sailing through the Beagle Channel and time spent exploring Ushuaia, Argentina, the southernmost city in the world.
Travelers who want to stick a little closer to home can choose from multiple Great Lakes sailings, including the 10-day “Great Lakes Treasures” cruise roundtrip from Milwaukee.
Viking is also launching several new itineraries in 2026. Its 13-day “Into the Northwest Passage” cruise sails roundtrip from Nuuk, Greenland, for example, while its “Panama Canal & the Americas” will travel from Santiago to New York City over the course of 20 days.
All of the 2026 voyages are offered aboard the cruise line’s two expedition ships, Viking Polaris and Viking Octantis, which both launched in 2022. Travelers who book before December 31 can enjoy special fares, free international airfare and a $25 deposit during Viking’s holiday sale.
