Viking Mars entered service in 2022 and carries 930 guests in all-veranda staterooms. She is one of Viking's near-identical Longships, so the experience matches her sisters: open-seating dining at The Restaurant, Italian at Manfredi's, a Nordic Spa with a snow grotto, an Infinity Pool at the stern and an adults-only, casino-free atmosphere.

✦ The standout feature

A 2022 Longship offering the classic Viking formula: small-ship feel, included excursions and no children or casinos.
