The award-winning Viking Orion will feature on two episodes of Channel Nine’s Explore TV this month, starting this Saturday 9 February at 4:30pm (AEDT).
Presented by Trevor Cochrane, the first episode will introduce viewers to Viking’s unique ocean cruising style, as well as its popular 15-day Far East Discovery cruise itinerary. This episode will begin in Beijing with an included excursion to the Great Wall of China, before moving onto Quingdao, Xiamen and Japan’s fascinating Okinawa Islands. Cochrane will talk to Viking Orion’s Resident Astronomer and treat viewers to a look inside the ship’s incredible onboard planetarium.
The second episode, airing on Saturday 16 February at 4:30pm (AEDT), will further explore what the state-of-the-art Viking Orion has to offer — from the gourmet food and wine selection to the Nordic-inspired spa. This episode will also take in the highlights of Japan’s picturesque Ishigaki Island, vibrant Hong Kong and the spectacular Chinese city of Shanghai.
“We are thrilled to be able to showcase one of our most popular itineraries on Explore TV. Trevor Cochrane has an amazing ability to bring Viking Orion and the many destinations we visit as part of this itinerary to life. For anyone wanting to learn more about the Viking difference, these episodes are a perfect introduction,” said Jane Moggridge, General Manager of Marketing and Communications at Viking.
