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

-Viking Ocean Cruises builds the modern ocean voyage around cultural depth, understated design, and real time in port. The line is known for a fleet of small, all-veranda ships and an adults-only feel that suits travelers who want thoughtful comfort and serious enrichment over onboard spectacle. With each ship carrying 930 guests and itineraries reaching Europe, Asia, the Americas, and farther, Viking takes a calm, Scandinavian approach to the world's most storied destinations.
Viking's ocean ships are designed to feel intimate and grown-up at once. The look is sleek and restrained, with spaces that suit conversation, quiet reading, and learning, so each ship reads more like a floating boutique hotel than a resort at sea.
There are no casinos, no formal nights, and no onboard gimmicks. Viking Ocean Cruises keeps the focus on comfort, connection, and a closer read of each place you visit.
Viking's voyages are built for time on the ground, with longer port calls, overnight stays, and routes that pair famous capitals with smaller harbors most lines skip. Each itinerary is shaped to teach you something about where you are.
Sample Voyages Include:
Every itinerary reflects Viking's bias toward cultural enrichment and genuine engagement, both on board and ashore.
We include Viking Ocean Cruises in our portfolio because the line does what it says. Elegant simplicity, cultural immersion, and steady service match how we think about small-ship travel, and they suit the traveler who wants more than a conventional cruise.
We work directly with Viking to build the voyage around you, from air and hotel arrangements to private touring and pre or post-cruise extensions, so the planning stays out of your way.
Booking your Viking Ocean voyage through Small Ship Travel gives you a partner who knows the ships and the itineraries, not just a reservation. We bring first-hand knowledge, tailored planning, and added value at every stage of the trip.
