Description

Built in 2016, Viking Vilhjalm has a length of 135 meters and features 4 decks, housing 95 comfortable cabins that can accommodate a maximum of 190 passengers. Onboard, in addition to the restaurant and a lounge/bar, you will find a library, a shop, and a revolutionary area known as the Aquavit Terrace & Lounge, located at the bow, where you can dine outdoors. Laundry service is also available onboard. The name is derived from mythology; Vilhjalm Langaspjót, or William I Longsword as he is also known, was the half-brother of Kadlin and the son of "Rolf the Ganger," a Viking chieftain and the first Duke of Normandy.
