Book your future travels with confidence. There is nothing quite like the feeling of planning a holiday — the excitement of researching unique destinations, the thrill of fitting each segment of your itinerary together like pieces of an intricate jigsaw puzzle, the anticipation of what you might learn and experience throughout your journey. Just because your ability to travel is on hold for the moment, your travel planning doesn’t have to be. In fact, with the luxury of a little bit of extra downtime on your hands, now is the perfect opportunity to begin mapping out your future adventures. Need some inspiration? Throughout the following pages, you will find a collection of our favourite Viking voyages, as well as a range of exclusive offers for our 2021 and 2022 itineraries. Brighter days are on the horizon, and when you are ready to set sail again, we will be ready to explore the world with you. So, whether you have always dreamed of wandering through the historic, fjordrimmed cities of Scandinavia; keeping watch for wildlife frolicking across the bluetinged, icy landscapes of the Arctic; or immersing yourself in the treasured traditions of eastern European culture with those who call the region home; keep looking ahead. Your journey starts today.

SMALL SHIPS WITH
A BIG DIFFER ENCE The world has changed in ways that we never could have imagined, and the way in which we choose to explore it has never been more important. On board one of our award-winning ships, you won’t find any children, casinos or crowds. Instead, you will be greeted by serene, open spaces filled with natural light, as well as alfresco dining areas and chic staterooms complete with private verandas. You will also notice subtle, stylish nods to our Scandinavian heritage — from the slate, teak and limestone accents to the colourful rugs, tapestries and window treatments.

FINSE TERRACE ON VIKING EXPEDITION SHIPS
Our streamlined, state-of-the-art vessels are designed to take you right into the heart of each destination, with the ability to dock in ports that are inaccessible to larger ships. Of course, smaller ships also means fewer passengers — our ocean cruises cater for 930 guests, our expedition cruises can carry 378 guests and our Viking Longships cruise Europe’s rivers with a maximum of 190 guests on board. In other words, there is plenty of room for you to move around and enjoy a few quiet moments to yourself, whether you choose to go for a stroll around the open-air walking track while taking in the spectacular scenery of your new destination or soak up some vitamin D on the Sun Deck. Did we mention that a Viking cruise fare includes just about everything you could ever need? Think onboard meals served with premium beverages, unlimited Wi-Fi and at least one enriching shore excursion in every port of call. This is all part of what we like to call the Viking difference.

TOP 11 TR AV EL DESTINATIONS F O R 2021 & 2022
1. New Orleans, United States Whether it is a festival or a parade, there is some sort of celebration taking place almost every day of the week in New Orleans. The local cuisine is a unique mix of Caribbean, African and European in�uences, and the live music scene is arguably one of the best in the world. 2.

VIKING RECIPE
F R E N C H O N IO N S O U P As the weather starts to cool down, this hearty classic soup will warm you up. Melt butter in large cast-iron casserole dish or oven-safe skillet over medium-low heat; add onions and sugar; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes or until onions are soft but have not yet started to turn golden. Uncover pan, increase heat slightly and continue to cook, stirring regularly until onions are rich caramel colour, 10-15 minutes. Whisk in flour until well blended; gradually add wine and cook, whisking constantly, until mixture boils and thickens. Whisk in broth and pepper; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes. Ladle soup into six 11⁄ 2-cup oven-proof bowls. Top each with bread slice; sprinkle with cheeses. Place bowls on baking sheet and place under the grill until cheese melts and bubbles.
