Norwegian Cruise Lines debuts Norwegian Viva

Norwegian Cruise Line has welcomed its first guests onboard Norwegian Viva, the company’s second Prima-class vessel.

The ship is currently sailing from Trieste on a nine-day journey through the Mediterranean. It will continue to sail in the Mediterranean before transitioning over to San Juan, Puerto Rico in December for a season in the Caribbean.

“This summer, our guests will have the opportunity to explore Europe aboard our newest magnificent vessel, Norwegian Viva, while enjoying its well-appointed spacious design, elevated experiences, expansive culinary offerings and signature Norwegian Cruise Line hospitality provided by the best crew in the industry,” said David J. Herrera, president of Norwegian Cruise Line.

“Norwegian Viva’s tagline is ‘Live it Up,’ and I have no doubt our guests will be doing just that while they cruise to some of the liveliest cities in Europe and the Caribbean during the ship’s inaugural season.”

Norwegian Viva includes many of the features that debuted on sister-ship Norwegian Prima, including the Viva Speedway-the three-level racetrack; Indulge Food Hall, a food market exhibiting 11 unique eateries; the fastest slides at sea, The Drop and Rush; and NCL’s sustainable cocktail bar, the Metropolitan Bar.

Norwegian Viva also features the Tony Award®-nominated comedy “Beetlejuice The Musical” and the game show “Press Your Luck LIVE,” an immersive experience where the audience participates to win prizes.
