The Aquavit Terrace offers a refreshingly casual dining ambiance without sacrificing the gourmet quality Viking Njord is known for.

Positioned at the bow of the ship, it boasts a scenic view that complements its more relaxed, buffet-style menu of salads, hot soups, and a selection of entrees like carved meats or curried chicken sandwiches for lunch, and equally as appealing dinner options including Caesar salad, burgers, and pastas. The Aquavit Terrace transitions from an intimate glass-enclosed space to an open-air experience, making it an ideal spot for those preferring to dine amidst the natural beauty of Europe's rivers. The casual, laid-back atmosphere, combined with complimentary beverages at lunch and dinner, lends itself to a truly delightful dining experience.
