Second, we strategically launch sister ships on the same
itinerary, sailing in opposite directions. This tactic allows
us to implement a ship swap in the event of low or high
water. This is typically seamless as you and your luggage
are transferred to an identical stateroom on a sister ship
sailing in the opposite direction.
These advantages allow us to minimise the impact that
water levels can have on an itinerary, meaning you can
focus on enjoying yourself, rather than worrying about
potential changes or cancellations.
DOUBLE DOCKING
Viking owns many dock locations along the rivers,
and we strive to arrange the most convenient
docking available. On occasion, due to limited space
or local regulations, ships may be required to dock
alongside each other. During this time the view from
your stateroom may be impeded temporarily and
you may need to pass through another ship (or the
other ship's guests may pass through yours) to embark
or disembark.
To cross from one ship to another you may simply walk
right through, or there could be a number of different
decks, this depends on factors such as the height of the
dock, to the type of ship we are docked next to and the
tidal levels of the river on the day.
