Explore with Viking—Antarctica

Become one of the lucky few to set eyes upon Antarctica’s breathtaking vistas and otherworldly wildlife. This is a land of paradoxes—the world's biggest desert is also the world's largest ice sheet, nearly two mi. (3 km) thick. Virtually unexplored just 150 years ago, this continent belongs to no nation and is protected by an international treaty for peaceful scientific pursuit. Join us on an Antarctica expedition and discover the many benefits of exploring the “White Continent” in Viking comfort.
