Named for lore-rich Nordic Gyda, the Viking Gyda is a 2025 launch that blends Viking’s signature design with intimate, passenger-centric cruising. With a capacity of 106 guests and a devoted crew of 33, the ship promises attentive service and a quiet, refined atmosphere as you glide through waterways on immersive itineraries. Inside, guests will discover Scandinavian-influenced interiors, spacious public spaces, and an open, easy-flow layout designed for socializing or serene reflection. The ship features an onboard program that covers enrichment lectures on Norse history and local cultures, chef-led tastings and cooking demonstrations, hands-on craft workshops, and guided excursions ashore, all curated to deepen your connection to the regions you visit. For wellness-minded travelers, there’s a well-equipped fitness area and relaxing spa options, plus a sun deck and a panoramic Observation Lounge where you can plan your next excursion or simply unwind. Practical details to note: electrical outlets include US 110V and EU 220V, but adapters are not provided, so guests should prepare their own if needed. See Gyda's voyage as a modern tribute to Viking heritage, where legend meets contemporary comfort on a compact, flexible platform that makes every day aboard feel like a private, culture-rich voyage.
