Overview

The Viking Skirnir accommodates no more than 190 guests in 95 outside staterooms, most with spacious balconies. The rooms aboard the Viking Skirnir feature premium hotel-style beds, large flat-panel TVs, and – perhaps most importantly – expansive views of the gorgeous surroundings.

There’s no doubt about it, the Viking Skirnir is designed to impress – featuring free shipwide wi-fi, the Aquavit Terrace that transitions between an indoor and outdoor dining venue before your eyes, and a large sun deck with 360-degree views of the surrounding cities and countryside.

While cruising aboard the Viking Skirnir, you’ll not only enjoy viewing the regions through which you sail, you’ll also enjoy learning about them thanks to Viking’s famed Culture Curriculum enrichment programs.
