Viking Expedition Cruises World Cruisetour Highlights

Bird-Watcher’s Paradise

A Viking Expeditions World Cruisetour offers an ideal getaway for bird lovers eager to discover diverse avian species in one voyage! Journey from the rich bird habitats of Brion Island in Quebec, along the Atlantic Coast to observe low-country birds in Charleston, South Carolina, and venture to Antarctica to encounter penguins (yes, they're classified as birds!). Don't forget to pack your binoculars for optimal viewing and participate in onboard ornithology lectures for a deeper understanding of these fascinating creatures.

Patagonia & Penguins

No, we're not referring to penguins wearing snazzy fleece jackets, although that would be adorable! On your Viking Expeditions World Cruisetour, your penguin fantasies will become a reality as you navigate the Patagonian coast, boarding a Zodiac to intimately experience these charming little guys up close.

The Greatest Cruise on the Great Lakes

Set off on a Viking Expeditions World Cruisetour, starting in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on the shores of Lake Michigan, where you'll indulge in a local cheese tasting before embarking on a bike excursion (to work off those cheesy calories) on Mackinac Island! Then, journey southward through Lake Huron to Detroit, continue east across Lake Erie for a visit to Toronto, before venturing into the open sea and heading southward toward Antarctica.

Onboard & Ashore Enrichment

Expedition experts guide excursions, deliver onboard lectures and so much more on a Viking Expeditions World Cruisetour. How enriching it must be to learn about, for example, the native birds in the region, and then trying to spot them on an excursion with a professional ornithologist..
