On November 5, 2024, we named our newest river ships, the Viking Hathor and the Viking Sobek, with a special celebration in Luxor, Egypt. The Hon. Edward Herbert served as ceremonial godfather of the Viking Hathor; his great-great-grandfather, the 5th Earl of Carnarvon, was Howard Carter’s benefactor and co-explorer, whose excavation uncovered the tomb of King Tutankhamen near Luxor almost exactly 102 years earlier on November 4, 1922. Mohamed El Banna, a member of the Egyptian Senate and the founder of Cosmos Egypt, our exclusive tour operator in Egypt, served as the ceremonial godfather of the Viking Sobek.
