Viking Wake – Reykjavik, Halifax & New York

About this cruise

This is the kind of cruise where you actually have time to go back to a port highlight you missed the first time. 15 nights from Southampton on August 6, 2027, visiting Kirkwall, Lerwick and Akureyri, with additional stops along the Iceland. The trip wraps in New York, so you won't retrace your steps. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. 4 countries (United Kingdom, Iceland, Canada and United States) across the Iceland, each with its own character. You get around 11 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, You won't go hungry on Regal Princess. 6 restaurants come with the fare, plus 6 more when you feel like treating yourself. Longer sailings have a different energy. People relax into it, stop rushing, and start actually talking to each other. An August departure puts you in the best summer conditions: long days, warm nights, plenty of sun. Whether you've cruised before or not, this 15-night itinerary is a genuinely good one.
