Overview

Experience the heart of Russia on one of the very best ships sailing on the country's waterways today. Constructed at the renowned Boizenburg Shipyard on the Elbe River in Germany, Viking Helgi (formerly Surkov), Viking Truvor (formerly Kirov) and Viking Ingvar (formerly Pakhomov) were part of the 27-ship "302" series, designed to offer visitors the very best Russia cruise ship experience. Viking Helgi was built in 1984 and was fully refurbished in 2008; Viking Truvor was built in 1987 and fully refurbished in 2009; Viking Ingvar was built in 1990 and fully refurbished in 2011. These ships now carry 210 guests in two 290-square-foot suites and 104 spacious staterooms, all of which meet the latest European standards of comfort and elegance, with all hotel-style beds (except for the two single staterooms) and amenities like 26-inch flat-panel TVs, in-room refrigerators and three open air promenade decks.
