VIKING’S Viking Orion has returned to Sydney after more than 1,200 days.
Orion is currently sailing her 17-day Komodo & the Australian Coast itinerary from Bali to Sydney, having first made her way down through Asia from Alaska.
She is the first Viking ship to return to Australia this year, ahead of another two of the cruise line’s vessels which will visit this wave season.
Viking Mars, which launched in May, arrives into Darwin next week, and travels down the Qld and NSW coastlines, arriving in Sydney on 17 Dec.
She will be followed by Viking Neptune, the newest ship in the line’s fleet, which will arrive in Australia in Feb as part of a World Cruise.
Viking MD Michelle Black was on board Orion as she sailed into Sydney Harbour yesterday morning.
“We’ve been waiting a long time for this day to come…after being absent from our shores for so many years, it was so special to be on board as we sailed through the heads.”
