Ship Highlights
Aquavit Terrace
Viking Alruna’s Aquavit Terrace is one of the most popular public venues onboard. This spacious deck is fitted with comfortable furnishings, as well as small tables for those who choose to eat there. There’s nothing better than enjoying a light dinner paired with a complimentary glass of wine, as you dine against the setting sun. If you’re lucky, you may be able to catch a tune from the piano player inside the ship as the music floats right by. No matter what time of day you choose to visit this area, the view will never disappoint!
Fine Dining
Regional cuisine is the highlight of dining onboard Viking Alruna. You’ll find no detail left out as you enjoy appetizers, entrees, desserts, and snacks onboard this stylish river ship. Dishes are meticulously prepared with the freshest local ingredients, and if you dislike the regional choices, always available options like salads and sandwiches are available. Some items you’ll find on the menus include homemade soups, delicious cheese platters, fresh fruit bowls, and tons of sweet pastries. Lunch and dinner are served in the main restaurant as well as the Aquavit Terrace, prepared on a small outdoor grill. Don’t forget to pair your meals with a perfectly complementing glass of wine – it’s complimentary!
Cultural Highlights
Whether you’re onshore or onboard, Viking Alruna has just the right mix of deeply immersive activities that leave you feeling like a local. Shore excursions will take you to once-in-a-lifetime landmarks and sights that you might not visit with another cruise line. You will also discover the opportunity to participate in hands-on activities, such as clock-making or cheese-making workshops. Don’t go onshore with a full stomach, as you’re certain to experience many local tastings. Cheese, liqueurs, and coffee are just some of the delicious things you may sample.
Once you re-board the ship, there’s still plenty to discover. Learn more about tomorrow’s destination with an in-depth port talk or learn about something completely new during a lecture. Some of the things you can learn include keywords and phrases of local languages, wines and cuisine of the region, stories about locals who became famous, the history of local landmarks or organizations, and much more!
