Introducing Norwegian Viva, the Groundbreaking New Prima Class Ship from Norwegian Cruise Line

Norwegian Viva features a cutting-edge spa, three-level racetrack and exciting live performances.

THINKING OF BOOKING A MEDITERRANEAN cruise this year? Norwegian Viva, the second Prima Class ship from Norwegian Cruise Line, sets sail on remarkable itineraries starting in late summer. Not only are its onboard offerings stellar but with key homeports in Venice, Rome, Athens and Lisbon, there’s no better way to explore the region.

The Prima Class of ships launched last year with the successful debut of Norwegian Prima, the first in a series of six new ships. Now Norwegian Viva will bring the groundbreaking Prima experience to the Greek Isles and the Mediterranean from August before heading to the Caribbean for the 2023-2024 winter season.

The Prima guest experience is unrivaled. By paying close attention to the details, the experts at Norwegian Cruise Line have elevated particular services, including space and service. Guests boarding Norwegian Viva can look forward to an indulgent journey filled with award-winning entertainment, thrilling onboard experiences and exquisite cuisine.

Spacious Staterooms

Creating a sense of grandeur while compromising on space is nearly impossible. By commissioning the same group of architects that worked on Norwegian Prima, Norwegian Viva has achieved the same airy feeling with the most outdoor deck space of any new contemporary ship. The new ship incorporates palatial staterooms into its architecture to create a vessel with some of the largest accommodation and public areas found at sea.

Norwegian Viva provides several different cabin types — including Studio, Interior, Balcony, and Oceanview staterooms — to satisfy the needs of all guests.

Studio cabins offer a cosy ambiance while Norwegian Viva’s Interior, Balcony, and Oceanview staterooms boast large, chic living spaces with modern audio-visual entertainment, sumptuous linens and beds you won’t want to get out of.

Seventh ‘Haven’

The uppermost levels of Norwegian Viva house The Haven by Norwegian®, a luxurious layout of suites and villas with a concierge, 24-hour butler, private sundeck, and pool exclusively for its guests. The elevated spaces were created by Italian designer Piero Lissoni to showcase the brand’s exclusive offerings.

Once inside, it’s easy to see that the experience suits its name. From Garden or Family Villa to Owner’s Suite and Penthouse, guests can relax in a private sanctuary of peace, quiet and serious indulgence.

Onboard Attractions

Norwegian Viva has an extensive range of food and drink options throughout the ship, including Hudson’s – one of four complimentary restaurants – which boasts a 270-degree view over the ship’s stern. At Indulge Food Hall, diners can tuck into a delicious selection of European, Thai and Chinese dishes in a glorious outdoor setting with sun loungers and daybeds.

The Mandara Spa offers an impressive menu of treatments and immersive wellness experiences, including steam and ice rooms, infrared sauna, high-tech dipping pools and a two-story waterfall. And with state-of-the-art equipment and guided sunrise and sunset yoga sessions, Pulse Fitness Center has everything passengers need to stay fit, supple, and focused onboard.

The Viva Speedway has to be seen to be believed. An adrenaline-pumping experience, the three-level race tracks on the Prima Class ships are a world-first.

Norwegian Cruise Line has a reputation for large-scale and exciting live performances. During the upcoming season, the Viva Theater & Club features ‘Beetlejuice: The Musical’, the hit show based on the 80s blockbuster of the same name.

As the second member of NCL’s Prima Class, Norwegian Viva matches the extraordinary specs of its sister ship to create an elevated ocean-going experience, incorporating eye-catching design features, expansive spaces, and service excellence that will surprise and delight.

Norwegian Viva offers sublime itineraries, amenities and services that result in unparalleled experiences at sea, no matter which itinerary you choose.
