Highlights of the Danube Cruise
A river as vast as its history.
From Vienna to Bratislava, Ilok, Belgrade, Vidin, Fetești, Rousse, Cruising Day, Cataracts, Turnu Severin, Novi Sad, Ilok, Cruising Day and Budapest to Vienna.
Hardly any other river has as many tales to tell as the Danube. Most people know it as a waterway. But what becomes clear as you follow its course is that this queen of rivers is home to the very essence of European heritage. Its banks are lined with architectural grandeur and monuments of a vast history in cities such as Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade. The further the river flows, the more noticeably its landscape changes. In Vidin, Rousse and Novi Sad, you will discover unique regional traditions. In Fetesti, it becomes clear that the fabled Wallachia is not at the end of the world, but rather at the beginning of a remarkably unspoilt natural landscape. At the cataracts of the Iron Gate, striking narrow rock formations appear. Then the banks of the river open up again. The horizon widens until the Danube branches out into a network of waterways, reeds and vast skies in the delta, flowing into the Black Sea. The river becomes calmer and the landscape even more untouched. As you return home from your Danube cruise, you will have gained a completely new perspective on Europe.
