As you sail along Europe’s storied rivers, the award-winning Viking Longships combine elegant Scandinavian design with innovative “green” features, including solar panels, an onboard organic herb garden, and energy-efficient hybrid engines that ensure a remarkably smooth ride. In 2015, Viking expanded its offerings with the introduction of its first ocean ship, featuring private verandas in every stateroom, a variety of fine dining options, and the most al fresco dining at sea. Viking's ocean fleet also boasts standout amenities such as an Infinity Pool, a Nordic-inspired spa, the Explorer’s Lounge with panoramic views, and thoughtfully curated book collections throughout each ship—all crafted to evoke a sense of refined and understated elegance.
