Explore the far-ends of the globe in style on a Viking Expedition ship! Viking Octantis and Polaris offer cruises to incredible destinations around the world, including Antarctica, South America, the Great Lakes, Canada, and Greenland! Guests onboard a Viking Expedition ship will have an elevated experience, with world-class service, incredible lectures and educational talks, and upgraded dining throughout the entire cruise. There are several unique and delicious food options, from the classic main dining room, to the Italian selections at Manfredi's, to homemade Scandinavian favorites at Mamsen's.


At Harr Travel, we have worked closely with Viking for many years, and know their expedition vessels inside and out. We have created a comprehensive guide to all the dining options, so you can book your next cruise with confidence, knowing you will be able to eat at all your favorite venues during your vacation.
