Wachau Valley to Vienna
This all-inclusive Danube river cruise in 2025 begins in Bavarian Germany and concludes in the Austrian capital Vienna. Enjoy an included walking tour of Regensburg, where the UNESCO-listed old part features fine Romanesque and Gothic architecture, before sailing overnight to Passau. Spend a full day exploring the historic city with its baroque cathedral independently.
An overnight sailing provides a full day in the diverse city of Linz before you continue overnight to the Austrian town of Melk, home to the famous Benedictine abbey. Then, cruise through the UNESCO-listed scenery of the Wachau Valley and spend the following morning in Krems. From here an included excursion involves a walking tour of the historic town, followed by a visit to Göttweig Abbey.
Spend the final full day of your river cruise in the elegant city of Vienna, where you have time to explore both independently and during an included excursion that will reveal the highlights, such as the Opera House and St Stephen’s Cathedral, by coach and on foot.
