Viking Ve

Viking Ve

Viking River Cruises

Ship Overview

Viking Ve embodies the mythic spirit of Ve, the Norse god who, with Odin and Vili, fashioned worlds from Ymir's body; in that same spirit, this intimate 190-passenger ship guides you through Nordic-inspired horizons with a sense of craftsmanship and discovery. Launched in 2015 and weighing about 5,000 gross tons, at 135 meters long and four decks, Viking Ve delivers a quietly luxurious experience with 95 comfortably appointed cabins and a crew of 50 who attend to every detail. Direct port access, refined spaces, and panoramic views characterize the onboard experience, while thoughtfully designed public areas encourage connection with fellow travelers and local culture. Onboard activities turn travel into a hands-on education: enriching lectures from local historians, photography and Nordic cooking workshops, and intimate tastings that celebrate regional flavors; fitness classes, a serene library, and an elegant lounge provide daily wellness and relaxation. Note: electrical plugs accommodate US 110v and EU 220v, and adapters are not provided, so travelers should plan ahead. With its Nordic warmth, attentive service, and immersive programming, Viking Ve makes every voyage a modern myth in the making.
