FORT LAUDERDALE — VIVA Cruises has announced its most expansive program to date, unveiling its full 2027 river cruise schedule across a fleet that will grow to nine ships.
The season will include several standout moments, including the christening and launch of VIVA UNIQUE in Venice, after which it will join VIVA BEYOND in the new VIVA Boutique premium offering.
“This is the earliest we have ever launched an annual program and it reflects our commitment to innovation, guest satisfaction and strong partnerships,” said Andrea Kruse, CEO and co-founder of VIVA Cruises. “We’re excited to offer more choice, greater flexibility and truly unforgettable experiences to our guests than ever before. With our international mix of guests, we know that some markets tend to book earlier than others, which is why we’re launching our program earlier than ever before to ensure everyone has the opportunity to plan their perfect river cruise experience.”
As one of the few river cruise lines to operate year-round, VIVA ONE, VIVA TWO, VIVA ENJOY and VIVA BEYOND will begin sailings in January, while VIVA TIARA and VIVA RUBY will start cruises in February. In March, VIVA MOMENTS and PORTO MIRANTE will set sail, followed by the May introduction of VIVA UNIQUE.
To entice guests to book now, VIVA is offering a special onboard credit offer based on the length of the cruise. This offer is valid for bookings made between Oct. 15 and Nov. 15, 2025.
NEW ITINERARIES
The new program includes a mix of first-time itineraries and extended departures on established routes. Among the highlights are new sailings between Basel and Brussels, Dresden and Prague, and Amsterdam and Nuremberg. The line has also expanded departures on some of its most popular routes, including Amsterdam-Budapest.
PORTO MIRANTE, which will become a full member of the VIVA Cruises fleet in 2027, will see a full season on the Douro River with 32 departures. Guests can also look forward to three-night ‘City Stay’ cruises in both Paris and Venice.
FLEET OVERVIEW
Each ship in the fleet is strategically positioned to highlight Europe’s most iconic waterways. VIVA TIARA will sail the Rhine, Main, Moselle, Danube and various canals and tributaries, while VIVA MOMENTS will focus on the Rhine and Moselle. VIVA ONE will serve the Rhine, Main and Moselle, and VIVA TWO will cover the Rhine and Danube. VIVA ENJOY will also operate on the Danube and the Rhine, PORTO MIRANTE is set for the Douro, and VIVA RUBY will traverse the Rhine, Elbe, Spree, various canals and tributaries and even the Baltic Sea.
The new VIVA Boutique line – VIVA BEYOND on the Seine and VIVA UNIQUE on the Po River and Venetian Lagoon – will offer a premium experience with fewer guests, refined service and destination-focused itineraries.
