Viking River Cruises

Discover the Viking difference and embark on a journey of exploration.

Viking boasts the world's most extensive fleet of river cruise ships, designed to elegantly sail the historical waterways they explore. Nearly all vessels have been constructed after the year 2000 or thoroughly modernised to enhance your cruising experience. Docking right in the heart of the most fascinating cities, Viking takes you closer to your destination.

Unlike their larger ocean counterparts, Viking’s river ships offer intimate, all-outside view staterooms, giving every guest a picturesque outlook of the unfolding riverscapes. The unique flat-bottomed design ensures these vessels glide smoothly along the rivers, offering a stable journey without concerns of motion sickness.

Viking is a multi-award winning cruise line, celebrated for its beautifully crafted vessels, devoted service and meticulous attention to detail. At Viking, the goal is to craft meaningful journeys that enrich and enlighten, providing a child-free, curiosity-driven cruise experience that offers superb value.
