River Cruising in Europe

Exploring Europe's Waterways on a River CruiseDay 1: Embarkation in Budapest, HungaryThe anticipation is palpable as we embark on our European river cruise in the heart of Budapest. The stunning architecture of the Hungarian Parliament Building and the iconic Chain Bridge bid us farewell as our luxurious river cruise ship sets sail on the Danube River. After settling into our well-appointed cabins, we gather on the sundeck to toast the beginning of our adventure with a glass of local wine.Day 2: Bratislava, Slovakia Awakening to the gentle flow of the Danube, we find ourselves in the charming city of Bratislava. A guided walking tour leads us through its cobblestone streets, revealing the medieval charm of the Old Town and the imposing Bratislava Castle. In the evening, we dine on the ship, savoring a delightful fusion of local and international cuisine.Day 3: Vienna, Austria The City of Music welcomes us with its imperial grandeur. A full day in Vienna is marked by visits to the magnificent Schönbrunn Palace, the iconic St. Stephen's Cathedral, and a leisurely stroll through the vibrant Naschmarkt. As night falls, we attend a classical concert, allowing the notes of Mozart and Strauss to enchant us in this cultural haven.Day 4: Dürnstein and Melk Cruising through the picturesque Wachau Valley, we reach the medieval town of Dürnstein, known for its charming cobblestone streets and the historic blue-and-white baroque Stift Dürnstein. After a morning exploration, we continue to Melk, where the imposing Melk Abbey overlooks the river. The abbey's library, with its ancient manuscripts and frescoed ceilings, is a highlight of our visit.Day 5: Passau, Germany Sailing into Germany, we arrive in Passau, a city known for its three rivers – the Danube, Inn, and Ilz. We explore the charming Old Town, visit St. Stephen's Cathedral with its impressive organ, and enjoy a relaxing afternoon at a local beer garden, savoring traditional Bavarian delights.Day 6: RegensburgOur river journey takes us to the well-preserved medieval town of Regensburg. A guided tour unveils the city's rich history, from the stone bridge to the historic Porta Praetoria. We wander through the vibrant streets, discovering hidden gems and enjoying local specialties at a traditional beer hall.Day 7: NurembergOur cruise reaches its final destination in Nuremberg, where we delve into the city's medieval past. A visit to the Nuremberg Castle and the historic Old Town reveals tales of emperors and artisans. In the evening, we gather for a farewell dinner, reminiscing about the enchanting landscapes, historic cities, and newfound friendships forged during our unforgettable river cruise through Europe.As we disembark, we carry with us the memories of a tranquil journey along Europe's waterways, where each bend in the river unveiled a new story and each port of call offered a glimpse into the continent's rich tapestry of history and culture.

Perfect resort
Kori is the best agent to work with. Her knowledge in airlines and travel destinations is wonderful. I gave her a few spots in Mexico I would like to visit , and she had information sent to me within the next day.
I love her enthusiasm and professionalism.
