Viking Sineus

Viking Sineus embodies a seamless blend of legendary Norse heritage and modern ocean-going comfort. Launched in 1979 and thoughtfully refitted in 2014, this 5,600 gross-ton vessel spans 129 meters with a 17-meter beam, accommodating 196 guests with a dedicated crew of 105. Its four decks cradle 98 well-appointed cabins, delivering a cozy, intimate ambiance while still offering open sightlines to the sea. Passengers savor opportunities to immerse in culture through onboard enrichment talks, demonstrations, and guided shore excursions that echo the ship's age-old spirit of exploration—an homage to Sineus, the brother of Rurik who sailed from Scandinavia to Kyiv and helped shape early Kyivan Rus, and to Beloozero, the gateway to Russia’s northern waterways. Onboard activities run the spectrum from historic lectures and hands-on workshops to fitness classes, spa moments, and culinary showcases, all designed to spark curiosity and camaraderie. The Viking Sineus also keeps travelers connected with practical comforts: US 2-pin 110V and EU 2-pin 220V outlets are available, though adapters are not provided, so guests should plan accordingly. With a comfortable cruising speed of 14 knots, the ship balances steady transit with ample time to savor sunsets from the sun deck, lounge spaces, and the intimate dining rooms. In short, Viking Sineus is a sturdy, well-equipped platform for adventurers who value rich stories, thoughtful amenities, and the shared joy of discovery at sea.
