In the same week that the Viking Neptune sailed into Dover for its inaugural call, a new three-year schedule has been announced with a record 60 port of call visits from Viking.
The ship was named with a celebration in Los Angeles in January and was welcomed into Dover for the first time on Sunday (7 May ).
The schedule of 60 Viklng visits up to 2025 features several of its ships including Viking Venus, Viking Neptune, Viking Jupiter, Viking Mars, Viking Saturn and Viking Sky.
Sonia Limbrick, Head of Cruise at the Port of Dover said: “We have a fantastic relationship with Viking and I am excited to take it to the next level in the coming years.”
“With exciting plans for future expansion of the cruise terminals, Dover provides world class travel to hundreds of thousands of cruise passengers every year. We are thrilled that Viking’s customers will get to experience this, and Kent’s inspiring culture, history and charm now and beyond.”
Wendy Atkin-Smith, Managing Director of Viking UK, added: “With its interesting history and superb location, Dover is a very popular port of call for our guests from all around the world who enjoy exploring every corner of Kent.”
