The Viking Century Sun is a brand new ship, built specifically for western travelers. By overseeing the build of this new ship, Viking River Cruises ensured that it is the most deluxe river cruise ship in China with her identical sister ship Viking Century Sky. With the intimacy of no more than 306 passengers, it offers all of the comfort and amenities you would expect from a 5-Star hotel. The Viking Century Sun features spacious, all-outside cabins, all with private balconies. Each cabin is equipped with a phone and color television. In addition to the lobby-level main restaurant, the ship boasts a sun deck and bar with breathtaking 360-degree views, a coffee bar and observation lounge. You can relax over cocktails in the lobby bar or work out in the gym. In any case, you will cruise in comfort knowing that the ship features state-of-the-art navigation and safety systems, and the same high standard of service as the European vessels.
Like its sister ship Viking Century Sky, the new Viking Century Sun, which debuted in 2006, features both the intimate ambience of a river cruising vessel -- and some of the contemporary amenities normally experienced on bigger ships. These include balconies, an Internet center, fitness facility and spa with sauna. All cabins come with balconies, private bathroom, television, air conditioning, in-room safes and hair dryers.
