Viking recently announced six new itineraries in Asia that will expand exclusive access for guests to Japan and China, as well as Tibet in 2025. 

These new voyages range from 15 to 22 days and explore iconic destinations in China, including Shanghai, Beijing, Xi’an, and Lhasa in Tibet, as well as Osaka, Japan. 

The itineraries will continue to highlight rarely-seen destinations and ports in China to which only Viking has access. 

Immersive experiences

Each voyage is set to offer guests immersive destination-focused experiences, insightful lectures and regionally inspired cuisine. 

Now open for booking, the new itineraries will operate from September 2025 to November 2025 on the Viking Yi Dun, formerly known as the Viking Sun, a sister ship that boasts of the same award-winning design and service as all other ocean ships in the Viking fleet.

Viking chairman and CEO Torstein Hagen took pride in these new offerings, essentially the second run of unique voyages that explore the Chinese coast. This is something exclusive to this particular cruise line.

Hagen added: “For centuries, these phenomenal destinations in Asia have inspired travelers with ancient history and rich culture. Our guests are curious travelers who travel as a way to broaden their minds, and we look forward to introducing more of Asia to them in 2025.”
