Viking Legend: sold, and sailing today as Dutch Harmony

If you are looking for Viking Legend, the short answer is that the ship still exists, has changed hands, and is now named MS Dutch Harmony. She is operated by Dutch Cruise Line under the Dutch flag.

What she was with Viking

Delivered in 2009 and christened in Amsterdam on 21 December of that year, Viking Legend opened a generation: one hundred and thirty-five metres long, the maximum the Main-Danube canal locks allow, with an interior layout that predates the longships and keeps a central corridor.

Eleven metres forty-five wide, drawing two metres, four decks with staterooms on three of them. Ninety-seven staterooms for around one hundred and eighty-eight guests and thirty-eight crew. Her diesel-electric hybrid propulsion was new on the Danube at the time, presented as a reduction in noise and vibration of up to twenty per cent.

Her sister, Viking Prestige, delivered two years later, is still owned by Viking.

The Danube, then Dutch waterways

With Viking she worked the Danube between Budapest and Passau, with the Austrian, Slovak and Hungarian calls of the classic route. Under her present name she is registered in the Netherlands and sails northern European waterways.

If your memory is tied to this ship

A guest who sailed aboard and wants the same route does not need the same ship: the Danube between Budapest and Passau remains the busiest stretch in Europe, and the following generation offers the same calls with one more cabin category.
