Experience the timeless beauty of Central Europe on this exclusive river cruise and stay departure. Begin in the grand “Queen of the Danube”, Budapest, a city where hills and history meet stunning riverfront views, and cruise through four culturally rich countries: Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, and Germany. Discover imperial cities such as Bratislava, Vienna and Passau as you sail the majestic Danube River. Wander through the UNESCO-listed Wachau Valley, lined with vineyards and fairytale villages, and explore Baroque treasures including Schönbrunn Palace and Melk Abbey.
After disembarking in Passau, continue your journey with a three-night stay in Munich. Enjoy a guided half-day city tour of Bavaria’s lively capital, renowned for its grand squares, ornate architecture and inviting beer gardens, as well as its fascinating blend of tradition and modern culture. The highlight of your stay is a full-day guided excursion to the enchanting Neuschwanstein Castle. With its fairytale turrets and dramatic Alpine setting, it is one of the most iconic castles in Europe. Step inside this masterpiece and learn the story of King Ludwig II before returning to Munich for your final evening.
