Could This Under-the-Radar Company Be the Best Cruise Line Stock?

This cruise operator doesn't get as many headlines as the "big three," but it could be worth a closer look.

By Matt Frankel, CFP and Rick Munarriz – Aug 27, 2024 at 9:17AM EST

When most people think of the cruise industry, companies like Royal Caribbean (RCL 2.03%) and Carnival Cruise Lines (CCL 2.32%) come to mind. However, unique cruise operator Viking River Cruises (VIK 0.38%) recently went public, and longtime Fool.com contributor Rick Munarriz thinks it could be worth a closer look, as he discusses in this video.
