About this cruise
Rhine, Danube, Main
The river cruise begins in Vienna, where imperial palaces, baroque architecture, and the Danube create a majestic atmosphere. From St. Stephen’s Cathedral to the Hofburg, the city radiates elegance.
Sailing through the Wachau valley, the ship reaches Dürnstein, surrounded by vineyards and castle ruins. The blue abbey tower is a landmark of romantic charm. In Melk, the grand Benedictine abbey rises above the Danube, a baroque masterpiece.
In Passau, at the confluence of the Danube, Inn, and Ilz, guests discover an Italianate old town and the cathedral with the world’s largest organ.
Regensburg offers a UNESCO-listed medieval old town with the Stone Bridge, patrician houses, and narrow alleys recalling its merchant past.
Nuremberg impresses with its Imperial Castle, half-timbered houses, and historic Reichstag sites. Then comes Bamberg, the “Franconian Rome,” built on seven hills, with cathedral, old town, and rivers weaving through.
In Würzburg, the Residenz Palace, a UNESCO site, dominates the baroque city, framed by vineyards and overlooked by the Marienberg Fortress. Wertheim charms with its castle ruins and riverside old town.
Frankfurt provides a striking contrast with its skyline, historic Römer square, and lively museum embankment.
Further along the Rhine, Ludwigshafen serves as a gateway to the Palatinate wine region. Strasbourg enchants with its cathedral, canals, and Franco-German flair.
Breisach delights with wine traditions and its hilltop cathedral, before the journey ends in Basel, a Swiss city of art, history, and international spirit, surrounded by the beauty of the Upper Rhine.
