Brand g Prague & Danube River Cruise 2028

Itinerary

8 stops · 9 nights

1. 1
   Prague (Czech Republic) Start

   Embarkation

   In Prague, you cross the Charles Bridge with its baroque figures and climb up to Hradčany with the castle and St. Vitus Cathedral. On the Old Town Square, the Astronomical Clock sets its figures in motion on the hour, and in the Vinohrady district there are many bars of the queer scene.

2. 2
   Passau (Germany)

   Passau is located where the Inn and Ilz rivers flow into the Danube, hence the name Three Rivers City. In the baroque St. Stephen's Cathedral there is one of the largest church organs in the world, and from the Veste Oberhaus you can look out over the old town and the three differently colored rivers.

3. 3
   Linz (Austria)

   In Linz, the Ars Electronica Center and the Lentos Art Museum are located on the banks of the Danube, which shine in color in the evening. Take the Pöstlingbergbahn up to the city's panoramic mountain, and in the old town around the main square you can try the Linzer Torte.

4. 4
   Melk (Austria)

   High above the Danube in Melk stands the baroque Benedictine monastery with its golden yellow façade. You walk through the marble hall, the library with its ceiling frescoes and the collegiate church, and from the terrace you overlook the beginning of the Wachau.

5. 5
   Dürnstein (Austria)

   In Dürnstein you can already see the blue and white tower of the collegiate church above the Danube from the ship. Above the village lies the castle ruins, where Richard the Lionheart was imprisoned, and all around on the terraces of the Wachau, Grüner Veltliner and Riesling grow.

6. 6
   Vienna (Austria)

   Vienna shows you St. Stephen's Cathedral, Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace, as well as museums such as the Kunsthistorisches and the Belvedere with Klimt's "Kiss". In the coffee house you take time for a melange, and around the Naschmarkt and the Rosa Lila Villa on Linke Wienzeile lies the queer scene.

7. 7
   Bratislava (Slovakia)

   Bratislava is located on the Danube, close to the borders with Austria and Hungary. Above the compact old town with St. Martin's Cathedral towers the white castle with four corner towers, and in the alleys you will encounter bronze figures such as the canal worker Čumil looking out of a gully.

8. 8
   Budapest (Hungary) Finish

   Disembarkation

   Budapest is located on both sides of the Danube: Buda Castle, Matthias Church and Fisherman's Bastion, in Pest the Parliament and St. Stephen's Basilica. In the Széchenyi or Rudas baths you can relax in the thermal water, and in the evening you can wander through the ruin bars in the Jewish quarter.
