Viking Unveils 19-Day Grand Nile Journey

Viking has announced its new 19-day “Grand Nile Journey” itinerary, with departures beginning in 2028.

The new itinerary, which is now open for booking, features four hotel nights in Cairo, followed by a 14-night sailing from there to Aswan.

It will be operated by the Viking Ra. Built specifically to navigate the Nile River, the ship can accommodate 52 guests in 26 suites.

“Egypt has captivated travelers for generations, and we believe there is always more to discover,” said Leah Talactac, president and chief executive officer of Viking. “At Viking, we design our itineraries for curious travelers who want to gain a deeper understanding of the places they visit. Our new Grand Nile Journey reflects that approach, giving guests more time to explore Egypt and experience the many layers of its history and culture.”
