Viking's first expedition ship — 378 guests exploring Antarctica, the Arctic and the Great Lakes in Scandinavian comfort.
Viking Octantis is Viking's first purpose-built expedition ship, carrying just 378 guests in serene Scandinavian comfort to some of the most remote corners of the planet. Launched in 2022 and named for the constellation that points to the southern sky, she was engineered to explore Antarctica and North America's Great Lakes with equal ease.
Built to Polar Class 6 standards, Octantis pairs genuine expedition capability — a fleet of Special Operations Boats, two submarines, kayaks and a sheltered hangar — with the refined dining, the Nordic Spa and the all-veranda staterooms that define the Viking experience. Onboard scientists and a working laboratory turn every voyage into a journey of discovery.
