Overview

Discover the magic of the Danube on an enchanting journey that starts from Vienna, the imperial capital of Austria, and takes you through some of the most beautiful places along the river. The splendor of Vienna - with its magnificent palaces, classical music tradition and cultural flair - is the perfect start to a river journey that promises both relaxation and discovery.

The journey continues to Budapest, the "Pearl of the Danube". Here you can expect an impressive mix of historical architecture, such as the parliament, the thermal baths and the imposing Fishermen's Bastion, as well as a lively coffee house culture. In Bratislava, the charming capital of Slovakia, you will experience an enchanting old town flair, characterized by baroque palaces, medieval alleys and the castle high above the Danube.

Back in Austria, the Danube reveals all its natural and cultural beauty. The picturesque Dürnstein with its famous castle ruins, where Richard the Lionheart was once imprisoned, offers a fairytale sight. Further downstream, the magnificent Melk Abbey, a jewel of Baroque architecture that towers majestically over the river, awaits you. In Linz, a city that combines tradition and modernity, you can experience contemporary art, digital culture and the warmth of Upper Austria.

The crowning finale is the return to Vienna, where the Danube and the Alps show Austria in all its diversity. This trip is a declaration of love to the beauty of Europe - a harmonious combination of nature, history and culture.
