VIKING has expanded its expedition voyages to the Arctic, announcing three brand-new itineraries to explore Canada and Greenland (pictured) in 2025.
After two seasons in Antarctica, the cruise line will now explore both the southern and northern polar regions with the purpose-built Viking Octantis.
Two of the voyages visit the Canadian high Arctic, with guests having the opportunity to encounter native wildlife & polar landscapes, kayak on the fjords, and partake in a Zodiac landing.
The 15-day Canada & Greenland Explorer voyages from Toronto to Nuuk or vice versa, travelling the rocky shores of the two countries.
It is priced from $18,495 per person in a Nordic Balcony, including a saving of up to $2,000 per couple.
The 27-day Canada & the Northwest Passage also voyages from Toronto to Nuuk or vice versa.
On this journey through the Canadian high Arctic and Greenland, guests can view towering icebergs, expansive ice fields, & deep-blue fjords that are rich in marine life, and can also get a glimpse of life in Inuit communities.
It is priced from $34,995 per person in a Nordic Balcony, including a saving of up to $2,000 per couple.
Also new is the 13-day Into the Northwest Passage round trip from Nuuk.
Guests can explore the undiscovered polar territories beneath the skies of the midnight sun and immerse themselves in Inuit traditions as they visit towns dotted with colourful wooden houses.
It is priced from $17,995 per person in a Nordic Balcony, including savings of up to $2,000 per couple.
“Viking guests will not only be able to see the tranquil landscapes of one of the most northern polar regions, but they will also be able to experience the midnight sun,” Managing Director Michelle Black said.
“These limited sailings take place during the northern hemisphere’s summer months when there are almost 24 hours of sunlight, allowing additional time to take in the stark beauty of the Arctic.”
