Viking Schumann
Viking Schumann is a small intimate river cruise vessel with an unusually shallow 80 cm draft, meaning the bottom of the ship is very flat, and has pump jets that minimize the impact of potentially low water levels. These vessels are perfect for the Elbe River, which is very shallow. Comfortable outside staterooms and beautiful French Balconies, Viking Schumann is ready to take you on an unforgettable river cruise where you can view the river right from your own stateroom.

The Viking Schumann was old, but was clean and moved quietly on the Elba. The staff was excellent and made the trip enjoyable for all the passengers.
