1

Culture-first, crowd-free cruising

Viking ships are adults-only (18+), with no casinos and no waterslides — just destination-focused travel, longer time in port, and a quieter ship.

2

Genuinely inclusive fares

A shore excursion in every port, Wi-Fi, and wine and beer with onboard lunch and dinner are part of the fare — so the price you see is close to the price you pay.

3

Nashville to the river, handled

We coordinate your flights from Nashville, transfers, pre- and post-cruise hotel nights, and travel protection — one team, one plan, one local number.

Where Viking can take you

The world's great rivers — and beyond

Tell us the experience you want and we'll match you to the right river, itinerary, and stateroom. Popular choices with our Nashville travelers:

The Rhine

Castles, vineyards, and storybook towns between Amsterdam and Basel — the classic first river cruise.

The Danube

Vienna, Budapest, and the heart of old Europe, with music and café culture at every bend.

The Seine

Paris and Normandy — art, history, and the D-Day beaches on one unhurried journey.

The Douro

Portugal's terraced wine valley — smaller ships, golden landscapes, and a slower pace.

The Mississippi

American river cruising close to home — no passport, no long flight, same Viking style.

Viking Ocean & Expedition

Small-ship ocean voyages and expedition sailings to the Mediterranean, Scandinavia, Antarctica, and more.

What's in the fare

What's included on a Viking river cruise

Viking's river fares are among the most inclusive in cruising:

  • A guided shore excursion in every port of call
  • All onboard meals, with wine, beer, and soft drinks at lunch and dinner
  • Ship-wide Wi-Fi and port charges on river itineraries
  • Specialty coffee, tea, and 24-hour access to the ship's lounges
  • Self-service laundry on river ships
  • No casinos, no kids under 18, no nickel-and-diming

Inclusions vary by itinerary and ship — we'll confirm exactly what your sailing covers before you book.

Why book Viking through Dove Travel?

Same fare as booking direct — plus a Nashville expert who's watching out for you.

Cabin strategy that matters

On a river ship, stateroom category and location genuinely change the experience. We'll tell you when the upgrade is worth it — and when it isn't.

Air from Nashville, done right

We build your flights, transfers, and extra hotel nights around the cruise, so a delayed connection never means a missed embarkation.

Promotions watched for you

Viking runs frequent limited-time offers on air and fares. We track them and apply what helps your booking.

Perfect for milestone trips

Anniversaries, retirements, adult family groups — we've matched hundreds of Nashville travelers to the right sailing since 1994.

Viking cruise questions, answered

Are Viking cruises really adults-only?+
Yes — Viking ships welcome guests 18 and older only. Combined with no casinos and a destination-focused pace, the atmosphere is calm, cultured, and unhurried. It's a big part of why our travelers love them.
Should I choose a river cruise or an ocean cruise?+
Rivers put you in the center of towns and cities with a new port almost daily — ideal for first-time Europe and culture-focused trips. Viking's ocean ships are small (about 930 guests), upscale, and better for coastal regions like the Mediterranean or Norway. Tell us your travel style and we'll recommend honestly.
Does booking through Dove Travel cost extra?+
No — you pay the same fare as booking direct with Viking. The cruise line compensates us as your agency, and you gain a local advocate for planning, air, and anything that comes up before or during your trip.
How far in advance should I book a Viking cruise?+
Viking itineraries — especially popular Rhine and Danube sailings and the best stateroom categories — often sell out 12 or more months ahead. Booking early also gives you the best pick of Viking's air promotions from Nashville.
Can you arrange the flights from Nashville too?+
Yes. We coordinate your air from Nashville (BNA), airport transfers, and any pre- or post-cruise hotel nights so the whole journey is one seamless plan — and you have one number to call if anything changes.
