Dining

Viking’s trained chefs are committed to providing a culinary experience with a selection of regional dishes and a variety of menus to suit every palate. Start your day with a croissant and cappuccino on the sun deck, or indulge in a buffet breakfast. Enjoy lunch or dinner Al Fresco, or meet friends in the restaurant thanks to the open seating.

Enrichment

Hands-on demonstrations, cooking classes, traditional dance performances, and local tastings. These in-depth experiences are included as an essential part of discovering more about the places through which you cruise, and each activity is planned specifically to illuminate each itinerary.

Sometimes you want to dig a little deeper. We offer a series of onboard multimedia talks to shed light on the history and culture of the places you visit. Topics may include the Dutch Masters or French impressionists, castles along the Rhine Valley, the formation of the European Union, the life and works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the wine and cuisine of southern France, and key words and phrases in the local language wherever you are traveling. These presentations provide a context for your own observations, enhancing your travel experience.

Entertainment

The design of the public areas make it easy for guests to enjoy the amazing views whether it be from the sun deck, the lounge or the restaurant. Uninterrupted sightseeing is available from sunrise to sunset.
