Viking Mississippi

Inspired by our award-winning river and ocean ships, this state-of-the-art vessel features clean, Scandinavian design and public spaces that are familiar to our guests but have been reimagined for Mississippi River voyages. (2022)

Introducing Viking Mississippi

Welcome to four destination-focused, culturally enriching journeys along the Mississippi River—designed for curious, experienced travelers seeking an in-depth look at the history and heritage of America’s heartland and the soul of the South.

Viking Mississippi Float Out

February 2022. The 386-guest Viking Mississippi® was “floated out” in Louisiana, marking a major construction milestone and the first time the ship has touched water. Set to debut in summer 2022, the Viking Mississippi will sail Viking’s highly anticipated voyages on the Lower and Upper Mississippi River, between New Orleans and St. Paul.
