Overview
Viking Eir
Experience Europe and the mighty Rhine River through a whole new perspective when you sail onboard the magnificent Viking Eir. Part of Viking River Cruises’ Longship® fleet, this river ship's name is derived from the Goddess Eir of Norse Mythology, known for healing the wounded and serving as a Valkyrie who determines the fate of battling soldiers. A Viking Eir cruise takes you along the Rhine River, stopping at many interesting ports of call. Every stop includes a free shore excursion, so you can get to know every city and town a little better. Along with fabulous regional cuisine, world-class staterooms, and endless onboard enrichment opportunities, this river ship provides an unbeatable river cruising experience.
Shore Excursions
Shore excursions bring you up close and personal with famous landmarks, locals, UNESCO World Heritage sites, and much more. In each port, you get one complimentary excursion led by English-speaking local guides and enhanced by complimentary audio headsets so that you don’t miss a second of information. Additionally, you can upgrade to a paid excursion for a smaller group size and a more centralized topic. Every guide is knowledgeable, knows the port well, and can answer all of your questions! Onboard, you will discover endless enrichment programming that accentuates your visits even further. No matter how you like to take in information, you will find your favorite way with a Viking Eir cruise.

Dining onboard Viking Eir is just the ticket to experiencing culture through taste. Dinners served in the Restaurant are freshly prepared with seasonal ingredients and fresh herbs grown right on the sun deck, accentuating your experience with more flavor than ever. Picky eaters or those dissatisfied with the regional options will never go hungry, as an “always-available” menu features traditional favorites every night. If you prefer to dine al fresco, the Aquavit Terrace is where you want to go. You can enjoy a casual lunch or dinner on the terrace, surrounded by fresh air and stunning scenery! What’s better than tasting a destination as you sail right past it? Complimentary house wines, beers, and sodas complete every meal. Toast your wine glass to fine cuisine and even finer experiences!
