Gems of the Mediterranean

Launching in late 2026, the Viking Libra represents a bold leap forward in environmentally responsible cruising. As the first cruise ship in the world to feature a hybrid propulsion system using liquefied hydrogen and fuel cells, it sets a new benchmark for zero-emission maritime travel. This innovation not only enhances efficiency but allows Viking Libra to sail in ecologically sensitive regions with minimal impact.

Constructed by Fincantieri in Ancona, Italy, the ship stretches 238 meters in length and welcomes 998 guests in 499 elegantly appointed, all-veranda staterooms. True to Viking’s signature Scandinavian design philosophy, the interiors emphasize clean lines, natural materials, and soothing spaces that prioritize guest comfort. Onboard highlights include a Nordic-inspired spa, an infinity-edge pool, multiple fine dining venues, and cultural enrichment programs hosted by onboard experts.

Viking Libra will debut with a 10-day "Greek Odyssey" itinerary, departing from Athens and exploring a curated mix of cultural and coastal gems such as Santorini, Crete, Thessaloniki, and Rhodes. Future itineraries will span the Mediterranean and Northern Europe, offering immersive experiences with extended stays and overnight visits in key ports.
