Description

Viking Ran is a river ship in the Viking Longships class, measuring approximately 135 meters in length and designed to accommodate up to 190 guests in 95 outside staterooms. Its name honors Rán, the mysterious sea goddess of Norse mythology, known for using her net to capture sailors and symbolizing the unpredictable power of the ocean. On board, contemporary Scandinavian design is characterized by bright interiors, clean lines, and understated elegance. The panoramic restaurant, Lounge & Bar, and Aquavit Terrace, with its indoor and outdoor seating at the bow, offer ideal places to relax and admire the scenery. The Sun Deck features 360-degree views, a shaded area, a putting green, and a walking path. Accommodation options include standard staterooms, French balcony staterooms, veranda staterooms, and suites, including the Explorer Suites with spacious wraparound private balconies. The ship also features a library and an onboard shop. Its hybrid engines help reduce vibrations, ensuring a more comfortable sailing experience.
