The information included here is current for all guests. Specific protocols and procedures continuously evolve to adapt to changing regional conditions and travel regulations across the global destinations where Viking River Cruises operates. Please check this page regularly for the most up-to-date version of the Viking Health & Safety Program.
Viking Longships and river vessels are designed with dedicated public health features that support an exceptionally clean environment. The fleetwide sanitization program includes regular, deep disinfection of public spaces, lounges, and high-touch areas using hospital-grade, eco-friendly sanitizing solutions. Hand hygiene stations are highly visible and accessible throughout the ship, particularly at the entrance to all onboard dining areas.
Every stateroom and indoor public space on a Viking river vessel is serviced by advanced climate control systems that maximize fresh air circulation. The onboard air-handling setups utilize multi-stage commercial filtration boundaries to continuously clean indoor air, preventing the cross-circulation of air between staterooms and ensuring a fresh, comfortable indoor environment as you cruise.
As you prepare for your journey, Viking encourages you to prioritize your health and the well-being of those around you. While there are no general public health mandates or testing rules required to board our river ships, Viking recommends that guests stay up-to-date on all routine vaccinations ahead of departure, as advised by their personal healthcare providers.
As your trip approaches, it is important to understand the specific entry requirements for the countries along your river itinerary. Certain international destinations may enforce unique localized medical or vaccine guidelines for entry. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and international health agencies offer comprehensive guidelines to help ensure you protect yourself, your fellow travelers, the ship's crew, and the local communities you visit.
As you prepare for your upcoming voyage, Viking strongly recommends purchasing a comprehensive Travel Protection Plan. This coverage safeguards your vacation investment against unforeseen circumstances that may arise before or during your trip, including emergency medical expenses, trip interruptions, and emergency medical evacuation or repatriation. Viking offers a comprehensive Travel Protection Plan administered by Trip Mate (a Generali Global Assistance & Insurance Services brand).
