Viking announces new Mississippi itineraries with Graceland tour
Viking’s launch of Mississippi River sailings in 2022 will come with an extra perk for rock n roll fans.
A new seven-night itinerary has been announced between New Orleans and Memphis, which will include an exclusive after-hours tour of Graceland.
Visits to Elvis Presley’s mansion are available on the itinerary starting in December 2022.
The ‘Holiday in Graceland’ excursion includes the Archives Experience, Private Presley: Elvis in the Army Exhibit, Elvis: The Entertainer Career Museum, and other exhibits.
"Graceland will be ‘aglow with holiday lights and festive decorations’ the line says.
It also includes a private dinner at the Presley Motors Automobile Museum.
The new 386-guest Viking Mississippi, which is under construction in Louisiana, will be deployed on Mississippi sailings.
As well as extended stays in Memphis, the ship also calls at Vicksburg and Natchez in Mississippi; and Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
The vessel is expected to launch in August 2022.
