Description

Viking Venus is the seventh ship built by Fincantieri for Viking Cruises, a collaboration which will include more than 20 ships through 2027. This new ship, entering service in 2021, will increase the fleet’s capacity adding this ship to its twin sister ships. It has 465 rooms for a total capacity of 930 passengers and 470 crew members and a gross tonnage of around 47,800 tons.
The Viking Venus, like the other ships in the fleet, offers an elegant atmosphere with a minimalist Nordic style, and is reserved for passengers older than 16 years of age. Some included specialty restaurants enrich the gastronomic offering on board while the infinity pool on the stern provides unforgettable panoramic views while immersed in the relaxing waters.

Comment

Second experience aboard Viking Cruises, first time on Viking Venus. In addition to the usual elegance and beauty of the ship, we were struck by the quality of the dining options. We had an incredible experience at all of the different restaurants on board. We recommend the aperitifs at the stern of the buffet, simply spectacular.
