The much-anticipated launch of Viking River Cruises newest ship, Viking Legend, is nearly here. The christening ceremony will take place in Cologne, Germany on the 2nd of July; Viking Legend’s inaugural sailing, a cruise from Cologne to Amsterdam, follows. Viking Legend will be christened by her godmother: legendary star of Germany’s large and small screen, actress Dagmar Berghoff.
This extraordinary new ship featuring cutting-edge technology and two of the region’s largest suites. Debuting on the popular 15-day Viking River Cruises Grand European Tour itinerary-which takes guests along the Rhine, Main and Danube Rivers between Amsterdam and Budapest-Viking Legend has diesel-electric hybrid engines that use an estimated 20% less fuel than comparable diesel-only ships and provide an exceptionally quiet ride.
