Viking to Launch Japan-Homeported Voyages for Japanese Guests in 2028

The Viking Neptune is one of Viking's award-winning ocean ships, thoughtfully designed to reflect the brand's signature aesthetic while immersing guests deeply in the culture of every destination she visits.

On board, guests are welcomed by serene Scandinavian design spaces that embody Viking's hallmark of understated elegance. With 465 staterooms and a capacity of just 930 guests, the Viking Neptune offers the refined luxury that only a ship of this scale can provide—including the freedom to call at intimate, captivating ports that larger vessels simply cannot reach.

Throughout the ship, modern Nordic design is beautifully paired with world-class amenities. Every stateroom features a private veranda, while light-filled public spaces and a variety of dining venues invite guests to relax and unwind.

Notably, the Viking Neptune will sail with the largest Japanese-speaking crew of any international cruise line, offering attentive service in Japanese throughout the voyage. Alongside an international menu of world-class cuisine, guests may also savor delicate Japanese dishes crafted with fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from ports of call. Free from any language barrier, guests can look forward to a deeper, richer and truly exceptional cruise experience.
