Viking Fleet - Overview
Viking River Cruises boasts the most extensive fleet of river cruises vessels, and we are proud to offer you the best ships in each region where we travel. Viking ships are specially designed to navigate the world’s great rivers and provide convenient daily access to a plethora of destinations and experiences. Enjoy all the comfort and elegance of river cruising: attentive and professional staff, delicious onboard meals and spectacular scenery from every stateroom and public area.
Viking Fleet - Europe
Viking Fleet - Europe Throughout our decades of sailing the world’s great rivers, Viking has repeatedly reinvented the European river cruise vessel. By continuously building upon our tradition of innovation we have set industry standards and delighted our guests. And with the introduction of the Viking Longships in 2012, we are ready to do it all over again. These four revolutionary vessels will join our award-winning European fleet, including Europe’s first “green” river ship, Viking Legend, and the environmentally conscious Viking Prestige. And from the purpose-built Viking Fontane and Viking Schumann on the Elbe to our doubled capacity in France aboard Viking Europe, Viking Neptune, Viking Pride and Viking Spirit, you will always enjoy the right ship in the right place.
Viking Fleet - Russia and Ukraine
With our dramatically upgraded Russian fleet--Viking Surkov, Viking Kirov and (for 2011) Viking Pakhomov—you can sail the Volga River in style. These ships are undoubtedly the best river cruise ships in Russia, providing deluxe staterooms throughout, an expanded restaurant facility and beautiful public areas comparable to those of the finest European ships. Viking Peterhof completes our Russia fleet and Viking Lomonosov sails on the Dnieper River in Ukraine.
Viking Fleet - China & Southeast Asia
Viking is proud to welcome Viking Emerald—the newest and most elegant ship on the Yangtze River. Featuring a private balcony in every stateroom and the largest suites in river cruising, Viking Emerald sets a new standard for river cruising in China. Our new Southeast Asia cruisetour offers passengers a journey onboard RV Tonle, a beautifully handcrafted ship specifically designed to navigate the Mekong River. Be among the first to enjoy the modern luxury of Viking Emerald, or experience the Old World elegance and charm of RV Tonle—either way, a Viking journey offers incomparable style.
Viking Fleet - Egypt
Viking River Cruises is proud to partner with the very best hosts to provide deluxe cruising in Egypt. Float along the life-giving Nile on Royal Lotus or Royal Lily, enjoying luxury the ancient pharaohs could only dream of, and witness the monuments of ancient civilizations that once flourished on its banks. Depending on itinerary, you may also cruise across Lake Nasser on the deluxe Prince Abbas. You also spend time in some of the best hotels in Cairo on each of our Egypt cruisetours.
