Launched in 2022, the Viking Mars is a 930-guest ocean ship that reflects Viking’s refined approach to small-ship cruising. Designed for travelers who value cultural immersion and sophisticated simplicity, the vessel offers an adults-only atmosphere and a serene onboard environment inspired by clean Scandinavian design.

Built by Fincantieri in Ancona, Italy, Viking Mars stretches 745 feet and houses 464 veranda staterooms, each with a king-size bed, sitting area, and spacious bathroom with premium amenities including heated floors. The ship’s design encourages relaxation, while panoramic views ensure guests remain connected to the destinations they explore.

Onboard highlights include an elegant infinity pool, a tranquil Nordic spa, and multiple dining venues showcasing fresh regional cuisine. Enrichment is a central part of the experience, with expert-led talks, performances, and destination-focused programming that enhances every voyage.

Sailing through regions such as the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and South America, Viking Mars offers a thoughtful and enriching way to explore the world—one that balances comfort, culture, and discovery.
