Viking has announced that it will offer new cruise itineraries on the great lakes starting in 2022 with its new Expedition Class vessels.
i think these new viking expedition ships will be the largest cruise ships to ever sail the great lakes. 670' long and 30,000 tons.
that's still a very far cry from the bloated floating hotels that ply the caribbean, but still significantly bigger than the other cruise ships we've seen to date on the great lakes.
