Viking Orion

Viking Orion entered service in 2018 as part of Viking Ocean Cruises' expanding fleet. Built by Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri and registered in Bergen, Norway, this vessel accommodates 930 passengers and carries 550 crew members across 14 decks.

The ship's moderate size and crew-to-passenger ratio reflect Viking's approach to mid-sized ocean cruising, providing a more intimate setting compared to larger contemporary vessels. Viking Orion represents the cruise line's commitment to delivering accessible luxury cruising with a focus on destination-oriented itineraries and enrichment programming for its guests.
