Viking aims to have a fleet of 109 river ships with the delivery of 25 additional vessels by 2028.
The company also plans to increase the number of ocean and expedition ships by nine to 21 by 2030 based on the company’s committed order book.
The disclosure came as Viking took delivery of its latest Viking Longship ahead of deployment on the River Seine on two eight-night itineraries from Paris.
The 168-passenger Viking Nerthus joins four identical sister ships which feature a hybrid propulsion system with batteries and exhaust gas aftertreatment.
They are also equipped for shore power to reduce reliance on fuel while in port.
Onboard solar panels further contribute to the ships’ energy efficiency.
With two itineraries and sailing dates from March to December, Viking Nerthus will journey from the French capital, with ports of call along the Seine, including Giverny, Rouen and the beaches of Normandy.
Viking’s ships dock in an exclusive location at Port du Grenelle in Paris, a short walk from the Eiffel Tower.
Chairman and chief executive Torstein Hagen said: “We are proud to welcome the Viking Nerthus to our growing fleet of award-winning Viking Longships.
“France continues to be a destination of great interest for our guests, and with the arrival of our newest ship on the Seine River, we look forward to introducing even more curious travellers to the region’s rich history and cultural treasures in ‘the Viking way’.”
