Viking Continues Growth With the Addition of a New Ocean Cruise Ship

Viking took delivery of a new ocean cruise ship today, Viking Mars, during a ceremony at the Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona, Italy.

Viking Mars will now make her way to Valletta, Malta, where the ship will be officially named on May 17, 2022—Norwegian Constitution Day—by her ceremonial godmother, Lady Fiona Carnarvon, the Countess of Carnarvon. The cruise ship will then sail itineraries in the Mediterranean, Scandinavia and Northern Europe before repositioning at the end of the year for voyages around Australia and New Zealand.

Viking Mars is the newest ship in Viking’s award-winning ocean fleet of identical sister ships.
