Just call it history revisited.
Viking is setting sail again in China.
The Viking Yi Dun completed her first voyage
from Shanghai to Hong Kong (Shenzhen). Viking’s new itineraries include a
domestic sailing of China’s coast that highlights rarely visited destinations
and ports to which only Viking has access.
The itineraries operate from September to November on
the 930-guest Viking Yi Dun—formerly the Viking Sun.
“With its ancient history and rich culture, China is a
phenomenal destination that many curious travelers have not yet had the
opportunity to experience,” said Torstein Hagen, Chairman and CEO of Viking.
"For 15 years, we introduced China to guests on our Yangtze River
itineraries. Now, we are proud to offer these exclusive domestic sailings in
China, and we look forward to welcoming people to this part of the world in the
Viking way.”
Viking has also recently announced the company will
expand the Asia program in 2025, with new itineraries that include Japan.
Dedicated specifically to exploring destinations in
China, the Viking Yi Dun is a sister ship in Viking’s award-winning
ocean fleet. The ships feature all veranda staterooms, Scandinavian design,
light-filled public spaces and abundant al-fresco dining options.
