Launched in 2018 and built to the most exacting standards, the MS Viva Moments is truly one of the finest ships of its type afloat anywhere in the world.
Every single aspect of the Viva Moments is designed to the highest possible specification and our own exacting standards to bring you the very best and most enjoyable all-vegan river cruising experience, in the most luxurious comfort.
MS Viva Moments. Imagine yourself not just on a ship, but a sanctuary. A haven where every ripple on the river whispers of serenity, and every course danced upon your plate sings of compassion. This isn't just a cruise; it's a soulful symphony for the senses, a vibrant tapestry woven with plant-powered delights.
Sunlight streams through expansive windows, painting the decks with a golden glow that reflects the goodness in your heart. Our chefs, culinary alchemists of the highest order, transform nature's finest into dishes that burst with flavor and leave your conscience sparkling clean.
Picture intimate evenings on the Panorama Lounge, where the only sounds are the gentle lapping of water and the clinking of glasses filled with exquisite vegan vintages. Breathe in the crisp river air as you sip your morning tea on the sundeck, the vibrant tapestry of Europe unfolding before you. This is a journey for the soul, a chance to reconnect with yourself, the world around you, and the delicious possibilities of a plant-based life.
The MS Viva Moments isn't just a ship; it's a movement. It's a chance to be part of something bigger, a celebration of kindness and a love letter to our beautiful planet. Join us, and let your taste buds embark on an unforgettable voyage, where every bite is an act of compassion and every moment a chance to savor the exquisite beauty of life.

A gleaming wood door opens revealing your exceptionally appointed suite. At 17 square metres (183 square feet), its generous dimensions are amongst the largest you will find on a cruiser gracing any European river. Imaginatively designed and appointed to the highest specification, with all the luxury you would expect to find in a smart ‘boutique style’ hotel, your comfort definitely won’t be compromised on any level!
The gleaming marble bathroom features a powerful fully glazed shower with a large ‘rainshower’ head, superbly refreshing after a hard day’s sightseeing. Clever design allows for ample space, and contemporary lighting, complimentary cosmetics by ‘Crabtree and Evelyn’ and fluffy towels, makes preparing for the day ahead an absolute pleasure.
The chic styling of a talented designer’s eye extends to the entire suite with generous use of hand-crafted hardwoods blended with premium fittings, discreet thoughtful lighting and a colour scheme of calming neutral tones, creating an ambience to put you in the most relaxed frame of mind from the very first minute! A full size bed assures a good night’s rest in crisp cotton linen of the finest quality - a turndown service each evening adds the finishing touch. Please note all suites have two twin beds with individual bedding which can be moved together or separated accordingly.
You will enjoy a particularly generous seating area with two chairs and a table, enabling you to unwind in comfort in the privacy of your own suite whilst a bow camera conveys live images of the ship’s progress to your flat screen TV, ensuring you won’t miss a thing. Careful consideration has been given to the tiniest details with individually controlled air-conditioning so you set the temperature that you desire, a hairdryer, safe, minibar, telephone and the convenience of tea and coffee making facilities ensure a familiar home from home experience. Suites on the Diamond (upper) and Ruby (middle) Decks have ‘French Balconies’ – panoramic floor to ceiling sliding glass doors bringing riverside life just that little closer!

Which Airport do I fly to?

From which airport do I fly home?

For the best flight options we recommend to book flights via www.kayak.com
Does Vegan Travel offer a transfer from Munich Airport and City center to the ship in Passau on embarkation day?
Yes, Vegan Travel will offer a bus transfer from Munich City Center to Munich Airport to our ship in Passau. The drive will take around 1,5 to 2 hours. Our bus will leave Munich in the early afternooon.
We recommend booking flights arriving at Munich Airport (MUC) a day earlier or before noon.
More details will be available with the shore excursions 6 - 8 weeks prior to the cruise departure. We will send all information to all booked guests via email. Then you can also book the transfer.
Where exactly will the ship be on embarkation day?
The exact coordinates will be announced to us only a few weeks before the cruise starts. You will get the information with your travel documents. What we can say by now is that you can assume the ship to be centrally located in Passau.
Does the ship have Wifi?
Yes, there will be WiFi onboard the ship, which is also already included in your cruise fare! Being close to shore, the connection is quite good at river cruises but internet on board can never be as reliable as on land. There will always be some level of unreliability, especially the further out to sea you sail.
Our connection relies on a cellular or satellite terminal—the best possible solution for river cruising. Due to the nature of data bandwidth and latency, as well as potential interruptions in satellite signals based on terrain and weather, you may experience slower online connections than you are accustomed to at home. That’s why we recommend to download your content such as movies, series or software updates before the cruise, so there is enough data for everyone to use the WiFi.
What is not included?
What is the likely age range of the guests on board this cruise?
