Viking has added six new itineraries in Asia that will expand the cruise company’s exclusive access for guests to Japan and China, with Tibet (Xizang) in 2025.
The new voyages range from 15 to 22 days and explore destinations in China, including Shanghai, Beijing, Xi’an and Lhasa in Tibet (Xizang), as well as Osaka, Japan. Itineraries will continue to highlight rarely-seen destinations and ports in China to which only Viking has access.
Each voyage will offer guests immersive destination-focused experiences, insightful lectures and regionally inspired cuisine. Now open for booking, the new itineraries will operate from September 2025 to November 2025 on the Viking Yi Dun—formerly the Viking Sun—a sister ship featuring the same award-winning design and service as all other ocean ships in Viking’s fleet.
