Viking Star Overview

Viking is bringing their wildly successful river cruise experience to the ocean with the Viking Star, their first ocean ship. The ship takes many cues from the river ships, including the intimacy of sailing with fewer passengers. Viking Star will have just 465 staterooms and maintain an exclusive feel. The ship will also feature a few public rooms that bring passengers together to create conversation, like the snow room in the spa and the cantilevered pool at the ship’s aft. The most important thing Viking made sure to bring to this ship is the sense of destination-based enrichment. Just as on their river ships, this ship will feature meals from the surrounding regions and have programs and speakers that will delight passengers on the cultures and heritages of their travel destinations.

Passenger Capacity: 930 (double occupancy)
Year Built: 2015
Last Refurbished: N/A

Wintergarden
Find your serenity in the Wintergarden. This one-of-a-kind venue offers Viking Star cruisers a space to sip on a delicious tea, snack on some classic tea snacks – like finger sandwiches and pastries – and listen to the soothing sounds of a live harpist. This cozy space on board is like an avant-garde forest; the beech millwork columns resemble trees where the branches reach to the ceiling and its enormous skylight.

Explorers’ Lounge
Viking Oceans has created the perfect space to share the joys of cruising in the Explorers’ Lounge. This comfortable space is designed to accommodate conversation, so you can share your favorite aspect of your last port or what you’re most looking forward to seeing the next day. The lounge is surrounded by floor to ceiling windows so it’s also a great vantage spot for spotting the next port, or some of the most beautiful natural landscapes of Europe.

Snow Grotto
There is something so magical in the concept of a snowflake where no two flakes are identical. Experience a spa experience unlike any other at the ship’s snow grotto. This is a lounge where snowflakes fall gracefully from the ceiling. This kind of cold therapy is used to stimulate the circulatory system.
