Blending Scandinavian sophistication with India’s timeless allure, Viking Cruises unveils 13 much-anticipated 15-day guided tours that journey through the Golden Triangle of India. Renowned for its sleek Nordic elegance and culturally-rich itineraries, these cruises bring their signature ethos of destination-focused luxury to India for the first time. Ready to set sail by late 2027 along the waters of the Brahmaputra River, the journey will showcase India to the culturally curious and comfort-driven travellers. Limited to only 80 guests, the experience promises to be exclusive.
The journey will flow through Guwahati’s temples, Kaziranga’s one-horned rhino lands, and the spiritual enclave of Majuli. Beyond the route, too, the cruises will be a sensorial escape drenched in opulence.
The experience will be backed by regional flavours, live musicians, curated libraries, and intimate onboard spaces that speak more than white-glove theatrics ever could. Onboard, intimate comfort is abound—from open-air bars, spa sanctuaries, and French balconies to individual climate control in every suite and pre-cruise palatial stays. Viking, often called the “thinking person’s cruise,” keeps these experiences adults-only, creating space for mindfulness and intimacy.
Moreover, sojourners are invited to explore enrichment programmes, performances, and regional cooking demos.
With tailored services for dedicated arrival and departure transfers, roomy wardrobes and floor-to-ceiling glass walls opening to picturesque marshlands, the cruise pampers through and through. Add to this complimentary in-room breakfast services, an attentive steward to help with twice-daily housekeeping, and Silver Spirit beverage package.
The outdoor Veranda Staterooms, offered at a starting price of USD 12,999 (approximately INR 11,15,853), come with panoramic viewing comfort, entertainment options, and plush robes, while the Explorer Suites redefine indulgence at USD 19,999 (INR 17,16,844). No matter where you rest aboard, this one makes for an unforgettable journey, the kind that lingers in your heart long after it ends.
