What it does
Viking Holdings runs passenger cruises through River and Ocean segments, plus expedition, Mississippi and Asia-language offerings, mostly for English-speaking travellers. It builds and operates its own vessels rather than chartering capacity from others. The company is based in Bermuda and floated its shares in New York in 2024.

Who it is priced against
