Creator's Key Takeaways

the little company we started on August 5 1997 has become the Viking of today 26 years ago

more than 80 percent of our crew are retained each year a rate that is the highest in the industry by far

more than 600 000 people have taken two or more trips with Viking

we do not try to be all things to all people which is why we'll find no children and no casinos on board
