One of the biggest benefits of attending industry events like Destination Success is strengthening the relationships I have with the travel partners I trust most.
One of those partners is Viking. I had the opportunity to spend time with Tresa Reed, Director of Business Development for Viking, and learn more about what’s new across their river, ocean, expedition, and Mississippi cruises.
Many people think of Viking as a European river cruise company, but they have grown into a worldwide cruise line offering:
• European, Asian, Egyptian, and Mississippi River cruises
• Small-ship ocean cruises on every continent
• Expedition voyages to Antarctica, the Arctic, and the Great Lakes
• Incredible World Cruises for travelers ready for the journey of a lifetime
One thing that truly sets Viking apart is that every ship is adults only (18+). There are no casinos, waterslides, or crowded pool decks. Instead, the focus is on immersive destinations, exceptional service, enrichment, and elegant Scandinavian design.
As a Viking Certified Expert, I’m always happy to help you decide whether a Viking voyage is the right fit for your travel style.
If you could take one Viking itinerary tomorrow, would you choose a river cruise, an ocean cruise, the Mississippi, or an expedition?
