Viking Tor: 152 departures, and the most symmetrical calendar out of Regensburg

68 departures from Regensburg to Budapest, 67 from Budapest to Regensburg, measured on 25 August 2026. A single date between the two directions, out of 152. The remaining 17 cover other routings.

That symmetry has one simple practical consequence: direction becomes a real choice rather than an inventory constraint. On the Rhine the question does not even arise, since nearly every departure runs down from Basel to Amsterdam.

What direction actually changes

Downstream, you leave Germany and arrive in Budapest, and the trip ends on the most spectacular city of the route, at night, with the Parliament lit from the river. Upstream, you begin in Budapest and finish in Bavaria, more quietly, which suits anyone going back to work the next day.

Neither formula is better. But one or the other decides which city you spend your extra hotel night in, and that can be planned.

The hull: a Longship, 190 berths

135 metres, 190 guests, 53 crew, 95 staterooms split into 25 Standard, 22 French Balcony, 39 Veranda, 7 Veranda Suites and 2 Explorer Suites. One crew member for every 3.58 guests, which is the Longship-class ratio and does not apply to the rest of Viking's river fleet.

Viking Gullveig and Viking Var serve the same route with 159 and 163 departures. The three hulls are identical: between them, only the calendar decides.

Thor, and the short name

Hers is the only name in the series that fits in three letters. Thor, god of thunder, protector of men, whose hammer always returned to his hand. Every Longship carries a name from the Norse pantheon; this one is the most recognisable in the fleet.

Getting there from Montreal

One mandatory connection to Munich or Budapest — Frankfurt, Zurich, Paris or Amsterdam — then an hour by road to Regensburg. Plan on 13 to 15 hours door to door for the air portion. Viking Skadi starts instead from Passau, half an hour further out.

Going through an agency is not optional here

Try it from home: Viking's reservations site redirects Quebec addresses to a page announcing it is unavailable and inviting travellers to reach an agent. 30 seconds is enough to see it. On this line, a Quebec client has no other way in.

Our Viking River Cruises advisors give you in writing, before you book, the exact fare, the inclusions, the exclusions and the conditions. AquaTerra Travels follows Quebec consumer protection rules and participates in the compensation fund for travel agency customers.

Frequently Asked Questions

152, measured on 25 August 2026: 68 from Regensburg to Budapest, 67 the reverse, and 17 on other routings.
Yes, with a single date between the two. Hers is the most symmetrical calendar among the ships we sell out of Regensburg.
Yes, mostly at the end. Downstream the trip finishes in Budapest, the most spectacular city on the route. Upstream it ends more quietly in Bavaria. It decides which city you spend your extra hotel night in.
Because nearly every Rhine departure runs down from Basel to Amsterdam. A traveller wanting the reverse searches a long time, whereas on the Danube the two directions balance.
It is Thor, Norse god of thunder and protector of men. It is the shortest and most recognisable name in the Longship series.
190 guests in 95 staterooms: 25 Standard, 22 French Balcony, 39 Veranda, 7 Veranda Suites and 2 Explorer Suites.
53, one for every 3.58 guests. That is the Longship-class ratio, not the ratio for Viking's whole river fleet.
135 metres. That is the limit of the Danube and Main locks, which explains why 50 Viking hulls measure exactly the same.
Viking Gullveig with 159 departures and Viking Var with 163, between Regensburg and Budapest. The three hulls are identical.
7 to 8 days between Regensburg and Budapest, across Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary.
A flight with one connection to Munich, then an hour by road. No year-round direct flight links Montreal to Munich. Plan on 13 to 15 hours door to door.
The Wachau valley between Melk and Krems, a World Heritage site. It is river cruising's strongest argument against a land tour: the landscape passes without anyone boarding a coach.
No. The reservations site redirects Quebec addresses to a page stating it is unavailable and inviting travellers to contact an agent.
Viking states one included excursion per port of call, beer, wine and soft drinks with lunch and dinner, and Wi-Fi. Gratuities are not included. The detail varies by itinerary and is confirmed in writing.
Our advisors confirm the fare, inclusions and conditions in writing before booking. AquaTerra Travels follows Quebec consumer protection rules and participates in the compensation fund for travel agency customers.
