Viking's thoughtfully designed itineraries explore local culture, cuisine and traditions through engaging experiences on and off the ship. Many port calls include tours of UNESCO World Heritage sites, for example, and ships dock right in the heart of town, putting you within walking distance of shops, restaurants and attractions. On board, you can enjoy lectures, cooking demonstrations, wine tastings and entertaining performances, all highlighting the destinations visited.

With Viking Inclusive Value, everything you need is covered in the upfront price: your stateroom, one shore excursion in every port of call, unlimited Wi-Fi, all meals and complimentary wine, beer and soft drinks with onboard lunch and dinner. Specialty coffees, teas and bottled water are also provided at all times on the ship. Meals served in onboard restaurants feature regional cuisine and use locally sourced ingredients.

Viking Longships are known for innovative engineering and understated elegance, featuring public areas that embrace the outdoors and are filled with natural light. The Aquavit Terrace at the bow of each 190-guest vessel serves as a viewing area and provides many opportunities for al fresco dining. All staterooms have river views, and half of them boast full-size verandas. Among the accommodation options are 445-square-foot Explorer Suites with two full rooms and a private wraparound veranda.

This spring, Viking debuted Rhine & Main Explorer, an 11-day journey through southern Germany, Switzerland and France. New Mississippi River itineraries ranging from 8 to 22 days in length are also available.

In addition to the new itineraries above, Viking continues to offer its most popular sailings on the Rhine, Main and Danube rivers: 8-day Rhine Getaway, 8-day Romantic Danube and 15-day Grand European Tour.
