Let Us Help You
Imagine a journey where your every moment is steeped in comfort, elegance and rich cultural immersion. Picture yourself drifting down Europe’s winding rivers or meandering through Asia’s tranquil waterways, each destination unfolding as you cruise by at a peaceful pace. River cruising is a unique way to travel, and when it comes to one of a kind voyages, Viking stands apart: promising to let you experience the world up close, all while drifting aboard a ship that redefines luxury and comfort.
A Tradition of Excellence
Viking has been delivering unforgettable river cruising experiences for curious travellers for nearly three decades. Whether it’s the iconic Danube or the charming rivers of Vietnam, Viking’s custom-built Longships are designed to navigate these waterways effortlessly. The ships dock directly in the heart of the world’s most fascinating cities and smallest towns, resulting in a seamless blend of world-class amenities and close-up access to the best of every destination. Their itineraries offer the opportunity to explore new cultures, uncover hidden treasures and enjoy global cuisine, history, and art.
A Ship Designed for Comfort and Style
Viking Longships boast a serene Scandinavian design with soft hues, natural woods and open, airy spaces. From the moment you step onboard you’ll feel a sense of calm and relaxation. Thoughtful amenities such as heated bathroom floors, anti-fog mirrors and luxury bed linens turn every space into an oasis. A hallmark of Viking ships is the Aquavit Terrace – a unique, revolutionary al fresco dining space that offers 360-degree views. This open-air space is perfect for enjoying a meal or a drink while watching the world go by. Relaxation extends to the Sun Deck, where you can soak in the beauty of the passing landscapes in complete serenity, as panoramic views surround you. The library provides reprieve for guests seeking quiet moments of reflection, stocked with books that invite you to dive deeper into the culture and history of the destinations you’re exploring. Meanwhile, The Lounge offers a comfortable and inviting atmosphere for socialising with fellow guests or simply unwinding with a cocktail while you take in the view.
Activities that Bring You Closer
The Viking experience is about more than just visiting a destination. Designed to connect you with the destinations you visit, onboard you’ll enjoy Destination Performances and culinary demonstrations that showcase the cultural art forms and recipes of the region. Furthermore, Viking’s exclusive access to private homes, palaces, and museums creates unforgettable shore excursions and one of a kind experiences.
Taste the Destinations
Onboard, each meal is considered world-class with destination-focused dining, allowing you to taste the very best of each destination. Viking chefs source the finest local ingredients to create meals that reflect the culinary traditions of the regions you’re exploring. In addition to the main dining experience in the Restaurant, you can dine under the stars on the Aquavit Terrace. With its stunning views and intimate atmosphere, it’s the perfect setting for enjoying your meal al fresco, surrounded by the beauty of the riverbanks. A thoughtfully curated wine list further enhances your experience, offering handpicked selections that complement the flavours of your meal and give you a true taste of the region.
