Cruise

Strasbourg(2) - PASSAU - LINZ - VIENNA - BRATISLAVA - KREMS - DÜRNSTEIN - MELK - PASSAU - Strasbourg(2)

Embark on a cruise through the heart of imperial Austria, along the majestic meanders of the Danube, the unspoiled landscapes of the Wachau Valley and the great capitals of Central Europe. From Passau to Vienna, via Linz and Bratislava, discover an exceptional heritage where Baroque abbeys, medieval towns and imperial palaces bear witness to a fascinating history. As you cruise along, be enchanted by the Strudengau, with its wooded hills and meanders once feared by boatmen, and by the terraced vineyards and picturesque villages of the Wachau Valley. Combining cultural discoveries, tastings of local specialties and musical interludes, this cruise invites you to experience the rich Austrian traditions all the way to the impressive Melk Abbey, a jewel of Baroque architecture.
