10 night River Cruise sailing from Vienna to Budapest onboard Riverside Mozart
VIENNA, AUSTRIA
This is the city of classical music. It’s Mozart and Strauss. It's street art on a sandy beach and fun in the countryside. It’s bohemia and bourgeoisie and the finest baroque. And of course Art Nouveau. It’s bad-tempered waiters in great coffee houses. It’s Sigmund Freud and Gustav Klimt and Adolf Loos and Friedensreich Hundertwasser and Sisi and many others. It is the Spanish Riding School, an event for horse lovers. And of course it is the city of Schmah (jokes anyone?) and scandals, on which the Viennese feast like cows on fresh grass on the alpine pasture. Last but not least: Vienna is the city on the Danube. Although it was not always so. The Viennese Danube river front is an artificial structure which was only created in the 19th century. Before that, the Danube flowed past Vienna in many arms through floodplains and uninhabited areas. Today, the Riverside can also dock right in front of the city. And then it starts. Marvel, wonder and rejoice. Vienna is a dream.
MELK, AUSTRIA
Melk’s main attraction is the abbey, where Benedictine monks still live and dedicate their work to culture and education. Another highlight close by is the Erzherzog Franz Ferdinand Museum auf Castle Artstetten.
MAUTHAUSEN, AUSTRIA
Visit Mauthausen concentration camp - a place of memory and a site of political and historical education or explore the Austrian countryside with a visit to Steyr or St. Florian.
LINZ, AUSTRIA
Austria’s third largest city and famous for its baroque styled Main Square, beautiful old town center, great shopping, the Schloss Museum and the Mariendom which can hold 20.000 worshippers.
KREMS, AUSTRIA
Krems has much to offer; museums, historical buildings like churches and abbeys, shopping and restaurants and most of all wine. Krems is surrounded by vineyards and they produce some of the best quality wines of Austria.
PASSAU, GERMANY
The city sits at the confluence of three rivers and had therefore military importance. The fortress Veste Oberhaus now houses the museum and the Dom features a great organ.
BRATISLAVA, SLOVAKIA
Guest love Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, because the Old City Center is for pedestrians only and easy to explore. Add the great local food, wine and beer and you understand why guests return.
BUDAPEST, HUNGARY
Budapest has much to offer like the Castle Garden Bazaar, the Fisherman’s Bastion or Mathias Church. There are plenty of highlights to explore or guests can choose to relax in one of the many hot springs spas the city is famous for. |
