About this ship

Viking Yi Dun

Purpose-built for culturally curious travelers, the Viking Yi Dun offers a sophisticated and serene way to explore China’s coastal regions. Originally launched in 2017 and later reimagined for the Chinese market, this 930-guest ship features an all-veranda stateroom design, ensuring expansive sea views and a private retreat for every guest.

Viking Yi Dun blends modern Scandinavian aesthetics with Chinese influences to create a uniquely elegant onboard experience. Guests can enjoy regionally inspired cuisine, enriching lectures, wellness offerings rooted in Nordic tradition, and curated excursions that bring China's heritage and landscapes to life.

With a smaller ship size, Viking Yi Dun reaches ports inaccessible to larger vessels, offering deeper exploration of historical cities, scenic harbors, and cultural landmarks. Every detail of the journey is designed to inspire connection—with the destination, the people, and the sea
