VIKING Cruises has opened bookings for its 2019 Egypt sailing, offering 40 departures from Jan-May and Aug-Dec.
The cruise line warned due to the launch in May of a new itinerary and a new ship, Viking Ra, the recently released 2018 departures have almost sold out.
“This product is selling itself,” Michelle Black, md of Viking Cruises Australia and New Zealand said.
“Any travel agent talking to a customer who is interested in travelling in 2019, should lock it in now as our new all suite river ship is in high demand and we expect the 2019 season to sell equally as fast,” she added.
The 48-pax Viking Ra will operate the 12-day Pharaohs & Pyramids itinerary, which includes a three-night hotel stay in Cairo, followed by a roundtrip seven-day sailing from Luxor, priced from $7,795ppts on 03 May.
