Great Lakes Cruise News

The most adventurous cruise line of the Great Lakes, Viking Expedition Cruises has just announced a limited-time sale to make their incredible cruises an even easier choice. Until October 31st, Viking will include free roundtrip airfare and their premium silver spirits beverage package with all Great Lakes itineraries and their St. Lawrence Seaway cruise.

It's no secret that one of the trickiest parts of cruising can be getting there -- especially with airfare slowly making it back to normal. Free flights to your cruise and back home can save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars too. Essentially, this means you can focus less on what many consider the most stressful part of travel and more on what matters -- having the time of your life.

And, that's made even easier with the sale's other inclusion: Viking's Premium Silver Spirits package. While wine and beer are included aboard Viking's North American voyages, cocktails and liquor are not. With the package, which ordinarily costs $20 a night per person, you're able to order these beverages to your hearts desire.

Over at the end of October, this sale encompasses all of Viking's Great Lakes cruises, as well as their top New England and Saint Lawrence Seaway itinerary. Find all of Viking Expedition's cruises here:
