Viking River Cruises

Viking Rota

Rota joins Viking's fleet of award-winning Longships, showcasing Scandinavian elegance and innovative engineering on Europe's waterways. Róta was a rebellious Valkyrie, one of the fierce warrior women known as the “choosers of the slain” who served Odin. During Ragnarök, the Valkyries chose who would die and escorted souls to Valhalla, a realm of the dead in Norse mythology. Associated with chaos, Róta was often linked to Gunnr, another warrior maiden, and Skuld, the youngest of the Norns—the Norse goddesses of fate.
