One of the best ways to explore some of the most fascinating destinations in the world such as France, China or Italy is from the deck of a Viking River Cruise. A Viking River Cruise visits at least one port a day on just about every Viking itinerary and passengers can explore off-the-beaten path areas that are typically inaccessible via a regular ocean cruise.
Viking River Cruises typically dock in the heart of most towns which gives passengers endless opportunities to spend more time touring scenic cities instead of just traveling to the cities. Viking River Cruise passengers will have a front seat to the ever-changing riverside scenery as well as local nightlife when the ship is in port.
Featured on the Conde Nast Traveler Gold List and recognized as the “world’s best” by Travel + Leisure magazine, Viking River Cruises is the worlds largest river cruise line featuring 25 beautiful ships that feel more like an upscale hotel rather than a river boat.

In Europe, the Rhine, Main, Moselle, Danube, Elbe, and Seine; in Russia the Volga; and in China, the Yangtze River. Viking’s deluxe ships average 150 passengers for Europe and just 186 for China.
