In a groundbreaking announcement, Viking Cruises has ushered in the 2025 cruising season by launching their much-anticipated ‘Rhine and Viking Shores & Fjords’ itinerary. This majestic 15-day journey stretches from Bergen to Basel and vice versa, marrying the serenity of Norway’s breathtaking fjords with Germany’s regal castles.
As the 2024 edition approaches a sell-out, Viking has astutely introduced three departure dates for eager travellers in 2025: two voyages embarking on 15 June and 24 August from Bergen to Basel and a single adventure on 15 June from Basel to Bergen.
Reflecting on the itinerary’s unparalleled success and emotional connection, Michelle Black, Viking ANZ’s Managing Director, remarked, “Bergen is a historical gem deeply rooted in our Viking heritage. This itinerary gifts our guests a flawless melding of two worlds – the serene riverbanks and the quaint coastal ports spanning six nations.”
Viking presents a selection of pre-and post-cruise extensions with an added luxury touch. These include the spellbinding 5-day Bergen to Oslo journey, which weaves through mountain vistas, World Heritage Sites, historic fortresses, and world-renowned museums, topped with the world’s most picturesque rail expeditions.
The pricing for this exquisite journey starts from $10,990 per person, with a special offer under Viking’s “The Heart of Exploring” sale, granting savings of up to $2,000 per couple for bookings secured before 30 November 2023.
