Viking Ocean Cruises
Viking began as a river cruise line and entered the ocean-cruise market with the launch of the 930-guest Viking Star.
Viking has already made an indelible mark on the sector with its fleet of stylish, near-identical, adult-only ships.
The cruise line currently has 10 ships in its fleet.
