About Viking Saigon
Viking Saigon is an 80-guest ship designed for the Mekong, added to Viking's fleet in 2022 as a sister to the Viking Tonle. It takes its name from Saigon, the former name of Ho Chi Minh City. Viking's 2026-2027 calendar has it mostly on Magnificent Mekong, whose river section runs from Kampong Cham in Cambodia down to the Mekong Delta in Vietnam, ending at Ho Chi Minh City. Its three decks hold 40 outside staterooms, a pool on the Upper Deck, an open-air Sky Bar and a spa and fitness center.
