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 Freya

In 2012, we will debut four state-of-the-art ships in Europe expertly designed with you in mind. Viking Freya and her three sister ships, Viking Idun, Viking Njord and Viking Odin, feature more full-size verandas and full-size staterooms than on any other ship in Europe. Plus, the lounge has been reinvented with Viking’s patent pending design that allows floor-to-ceiling windows to roll aside to create a unique area that combines the comfort of the indoors with the fresh air and exhilaration of the outdoors. The new Aquavit Terrace is sure to be a favorite location for scenic cruising. Click the link to learn more and see artist’s renderings of this spectacular ship
