Elegance in motion
Refuges of light
The cabins of the Viking Longship Mimir are designed as luminous cocoons gently opened toward the river. Each features premium bedding, elegant marble bathrooms, and, in the suites, private balconies from which to admire the landscapes of the Danube or the Rhine. Natural materials, a palette of soft light tones, and carefully crafted finishes create a gentle atmosphere conducive to relaxation and daydreaming, where one immediately feels truly at home.
Spaces of conviviality
The panoramic lounge of the Viking Longship Mimir embodies the vibrant heart of the ship.

Horizons in the open air
On the upper deck of the Viking Longship Mimir, passengers let themselves be carried by the soft river breeze. Loungers, an herb garden, and seemingly endless panoramas offer a space where time gently suspends its flow. At any hour of the day, the light reflects off the river and invites contemplation of the surrounding nature, making this deck a true open-air refuge, between sky and shimmering water, in absolute peace.
