About Viking Geb
New for 2027, the Viking Geb joins Viking's Egypt fleet as a purpose-built Nile vessel in the line's clean, understated Scandinavian style. She is scheduled to host 82 guests in 41 outside staterooms, from 21.6 m² Standard Staterooms to two 62.9 m² Explorer Suites, with six 38 m² Veranda Suites between them.
Her route runs the length of Upper Egypt on the 12-day Pharaohs & Pyramids itinerary, a Cairo round-trip calling at Luxor, Qena, Esna, Aswan, Kom Ombo and Edfu with 11 guided tours. Meals are served in The Restaurant beneath floor-to-ceiling windows, with the indoor-outdoor Aquavit Terrace for casual dining by the river.
On deck, a Pool & Sun Deck offers 360-degree views and shaded seating, while the Main Lounge & Bar, library and onboard shop provide space between excursions. Free Wi-Fi runs throughout, alongside laundry service and an elevator.
