THANK YOU to Mary and Viking Cruise Lines for inviting Globetrotter Travel to experience their groundbreaking ship. Today, I had the pleasure (along with some of our fellow Outside Agents travel advisors) of touring the extraordinary Viking Octantis, whose sister ship is the Viking Polaris. These are not just cruise ships—they are the world’s only scientific research passenger vessels, designed for unparalleled exploration and adventure.
Check out a few of the photos I took today!
