🐫✨ See Egypt Like Never Before with Viking

Updated: 10 hours ago

This isn’t a history lesson… it’s a once-in-a-lifetime journey through civilization itself.


Egypt doesn’t just whisper history—it stands boldly in front of you, carved in stone, glowing in desert light, and reflected in the calm waters of the Nile. And now, there’s an extraordinary new way to experience it all: aboard Viking Cruises’ newest Nile River ship, Viking Thoth.


This is Egypt done right—immersive, elevated, intimate, and deeply meaningful. ✨
