About Viking Tialfi
Viking Tialfi, a 190-guest Longship that joined the fleet in 2016, belongs to the large class of sister ships Viking introduced in 2012. Tialfi, the namesake, is Thor's servant, who lost a footrace to Hugi, the embodiment of thought. Viking's 2026-2027 calendar has it mostly on the Rhine Getaway between Basel and Amsterdam, with Christmas on the Rhine market cruises in season. Like its sisters it has 95 outside staterooms, including two Explorer Suites with wraparound verandas, and a square bow that makes room for the indoor-outdoor Aquavit Terrace.
