Viking announces new Mekong ship

Viking has announced that it will be expanding its southeast Asia river fleet with the introduction of the Viking Tonle.

The new ship, which will launch in 2025, will join Viking Saigon, which debuted in 2022. Both vessels will sail between Kampong Cham, Cambodia and Mỹ Tho, Vietnam as part of Viking’s 15-day Magnificent Mekong itinerary.

Viking Tonle will launch in October 2025 with the entire 2026 season now on sale.

 “The rich history and culture of Vietnam and Cambodia have always made the Mekong River a fascinating destination for our guests,” said Torstein Hagen, Chairman of Viking. “With the addition of an identical sister ship in 2025, we look forward to introducing even more curious travellers to the treasures of this fantastic region in the years to come.”
