About this cruise
Danube
Look forward to the included excursion: Historic & Hearty Regensburg
Autumn Getaway
Experience an enchanting Advent journey along the Danube, beginning in the historic city of Regensburg. The snow-covered Old Town, festively illuminated, exudes the true magic of the Christmas season in this charming Bavarian gem. Stroll through the romantic Christmas market in the courtyard of Thurn und Taxis Palace, where artisanal stalls, the scent of mulled wine, and Christmas music create an unforgettable atmosphere.
The journey continues to Passau, where the three rivers—the Danube, Inn, and Ilz—converge, and the Baroque Cathedral Square is bathed in warm light during Advent. In Linz, Upper Austria’s charming cultural city, festively decorated alleys, the scent of gingerbread, and the traditional Christmas market on the main square with regional specialties await you.
A special highlight is a visit to Melk, where the imposing Benedictine Abbey towers over the Danube like a shining landmark—a magical place, especially in the soft winter light. In Bratislava, with its snow-covered streets, you’ll feel like you’re in a real winter fairy tale.
The crowning finale of your journey is Vienna—the elegant capital with its imperial charm. Let yourself be enchanted by the magic of the Vienna Advent market on City Hall Square, enjoy classical concerts, and savor a slice of Sachertorte in one of the traditional coffeehouses. The magnificently decorated city center, artistic exhibitions, and warm atmosphere make Vienna the perfect backdrop for the end of the year.
This journey combines festive traditions, cultural highlights, and the romantic winter landscape of the Danube region into an unforgettable Advent experience.
