Viking Kadlin
Viking Kadlin: Longship sailings to southeastern Europe
Snapshot
The 190-passenger Viking Kadlin voyages through southern Europe to less-traveled destinations such as Serbia, Bulgaria and Romania in addition to Hungary and Austria.
Kadlin is a Viking Longship that debuted alongside sister ships Viking Alruna, Egil, Rolf, Tialfi and Vilhjalm. Like other Viking Longships, Kadlin features the Aquavit Terrace, which transforms from an indoor to outdoor dining venue as the weather permits. For dining and entertainment, The Restaurant and Bar are the key go-to public spaces.
With a growing fleet of ships, Viking River Cruises operates the world's largest river cruise line.
Where Viking Kadlin sails
Viking Kadlin sails the 16-night "Cruise to Europe" itinerary starting in Vienna and calling on Budapest, Belgrade and a host of river towns in several countries before winding its way to Bucharest, Romania — plus the reverse itinerary.
Dining
Viking Kadlin has two restaurants on board: The Restaurant is the main dining venue, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows for panoramic views, and the Aquavit Terrace offers an innovative indoor/outdoor viewing area at the bow of the ship. Both serve regional specialties and American classics.
Highlights on board
Passengers can make use of Kadlin's onboard Concierge, complimentary shipwide Wi-Fi and a 24-hour beverage bar. The ship also provides an array of options for cultural enrichment: Take part in immersive learning and enhancement activities both on board and ashore to complement your shore excursions. Or participate in hands-on demonstrations, cooking classes or local tastings and watch traditional performances by local singers and dancers.
Presentations provide a context for your own observations, enhancing your travel experience. Viking River Cruises has created a series of multimedia presentations where you can learn about the region you are sailing in.
There's no spa or fitness center but you'll get plenty of exercise walking during the shore excursions.
