Travel + Leisure Readers Vote Viking Ocean Cruises the #1 Ocean Cruise Line for 2016

In its first year of service, Viking Ocean Cruises – the first entirely new cruise line in a decade – has been named the #1 Ocean Cruise Line by Travel + Leisure readers in the 2016 World’s Best Awards. Viking launched its first ocean ship, Viking Star, in April 2015.

Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Awards are based on results from an annual survey, where readers are asked to cast their votes for the very best in cruising with considerations in the following cruise features: cabins/facilities, restaurants/food, service, itineraries/destinations, excursions/activities and value.

Two remaining, yet-to-be-named ships will be delivered in 2018 and 2020.
