Viking Octantis
VIKING OCEAN CRUISES
Delivered at the Søviknes shipyard in Norway, Viking Octantis is the first of two expedition cruise vessels for Viking.
The ship can accommodate 646 guests on board in 189 cabins. It has the “Polar Class 6” certification for expeditions in the polar regions and has the size to navigate remote areas and the St. Lawrence River and provide superior handling and stability in rough seas.
Designed by the same nautical architects and engineers that designed Viking’s ocean ships, these new vessels feature modern Scandinavian design, intimate spaces and attention to detail.
