LOS ANGELES, March 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Viking® (www.viking.com) today announced its newest ship for the Nile River—the 82-guest Viking Hathor—was "floated out," marking a major construction milestone and the first time the ship has touched water. Set to debut in August 2024, the Viking Hathor will join the company's growing fleet of state-of-the-art ships for the Nile River and will sail Viking's popular 12-day Pharaohs & Pyramids itinerary.

Key Points:

  • Viking will have six ships sailing the Nile by 2025 with the addition of another sister ship, the Viking Sobek , which is already under construction and will be delivered next year.
