About Viking Thoth
Viking Thoth is an 82-guest Nile ship of the Osiris class, built, owned and operated by Viking, and it entered service in 2025. Thoth, its namesake, is the Egyptian god of writing and learning. For 2026 and 2027 Viking schedules it mainly on Pharaohs & Pyramids, which pairs hotel nights in Cairo with an eight-day Nile round trip from Luxor to Aswan, plus a Total Eclipse on the Nile departure in 2027. The design borrows from Viking's Longships, with a square bow, an indoor-outdoor Aquavit Terrace, a pool on the top deck and 41 staterooms that include two Explorer Suites. Massara shipyard in Cairo delivered it in October 2025.
