Discover the treasures and waterways of Russia aboard the inviting Viking Rurik. Completely refurbished for the 2012 sailing season the Viking Rurik offers many of the loved features found on Viking River Cruise ships including a sun deck with 360-degree views and shaded sitting area, an observation lounge and two bars with panoramic windows and comfortable accommodations all with river-views. Immerse yourself in the culture, history and architecture of Russia during the day and return to your floating hotel at night to dine on delicious regional and international cuisine, have a drink in the lounge with new found friends to reminisce about today's discoveries and retire to your stateroom to get a good nights sleep and dream of what tomorrow may bring.
