Viking Einar is a modern, intimate expedition-style ship launched in 2019 that pairs Nordic heritage with contemporary comfort. At roughly 135 meters in length and a gross tonnage of 5,000, it carries up to 190 guests in 95 well-appointed cabins across four decks, guided by a professional crew of 50. The design emphasizes space, light, and accessibility, with efficient layouts that maximize every vantage point for panoramic ocean views. Guests enjoy a range of onboard activities and enrichment programs that bring history and culture to life—from expert talks on Norse legends and maritime lore to hands-on culinary demonstrations featuring Nordic flavors—paired with wellness options, a fitness area, and serene lounges. The ship also supports practical needs with EU 2-pin 220V electrical outlets and adapters provided for guests traveling from different regions, ensuring devices stay charged during long days of exploration. With its balanced blend of comfortable accommodation, thoughtful amenities, and opportunities for immersive shore excursions, Viking Einar invites guests to savor a genuine high-seas experience that honors the seafaring spirit of its namesake.
