See the grand Old World cities, medieval villages and scenic countryside of
central Europe on a leisurely Danube River cruise. These sailings typically
meander through Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary, and some travel all
the way to the Black Sea, where the river ends.
On a Danube River cruise you can explore the imperial architecture of Vienna,
the towering Benedictine abbey of Melk and the cobblestone streets and
16th-century buildings of Durnstein. View Europe's largest church organ
(with about 17,000 pipes) in Passau, and take in the views from Fisherman's Bastion
in Budapest, a city divided by the Danube. Holiday sailings of the river are
extremely popular, when passengers can browse the festive outdoor Christmas
markets set up in town squares throughout Germany and Austria.
A Danube River cruise can be part of a longer tour itinerary that includes
hotel stays. When packaged this way, our Danube River cruises offer significant
savings off the price of traveling the same itinerary on your own. That's
because river cruise companies negotiate low group rates on everything from
hotels to cabins, passing the savings on to their passengers. With so much
included in one price, these vacations are easy to budget. Plus, Danube River
cruises are hassle-free -- all the day-to-day details of the itinerary are
handled for you. And, local guides with years of experience bring the history
and culture of each destination to life.
