About Viking Dagur
One of Viking's near-identical 135-meter Longships, Viking Dagur carries 190 guests and has sailed since 2026. Dagur is the Old Norse word for day, personified in the Poetic Edda as the son of Dawn and Night. Its 2026 and 2027 departures are mostly Paris to the Swiss Alps, a Moselle and Rhine cruise from Trier to Basel framed by stays in Paris and Zurich. Its schedule also includes the Rhine Getaway between Basel and Amsterdam and Christmas on the Rhine market cruises. Its 95 staterooms run from 150-square-foot standard rooms with half-height windows to two-room Veranda and Explorer Suites, and the ship has hybrid engines. Viking took delivery of it at Neptun Werft in Rostock-Warnemunde in July 2026.
