Designed to navigate the Mekong River, Viking Saigon carries just 80 guests in understated elegance, reflecting Viking's clean Scandinavian design. Launched in 2021, the ship blends comfortable luxury with light-filled public spaces, outdoor verandas, and hotel-style beds that invite restful nights after rewarding days onshore. With a three-deck layout and 40 cabins, guests enjoy panoramic views from almost every corner of the ship. The onboard experience pairs a thoughtful program of enrichment with hands-on Mekong moments: guided shore excursions led by knowledgeable local guides, cooking demonstrations and cultural workshops, wine and regional beverage tastings, and engaging onboard lectures that deepen understanding of the region. Cabins offer flexible layouts, while common areas include an observation lounge and sun deck to soak up river life. Practical details like US 110V and EU 220V outlets ensure easy charging, though adapters are not provided, so guests should come prepared. Cruising at a graceful pace of about 9 knots, Viking Saigon invites travelers to discover one of the world's most scenic regions in comfort and style, with windows, verandas, and light-filled spaces making every moment of the journey feel connected to the water and the world beyond.
