Royal cities, unique countryside
From its source in the Black Forest to the natural wonder of the Danube Delta, the river known as the “beautiful blue Danube” meanders and crosses through ten countries and covers a length of some 2,888 km. This “Queen of European Rivers” provides a habitat for a unique variety of flora and fauna. It also unites countries, people and cultures, giving Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava an incomparable cityscape while providing you with a cruise that is full of cultural and scenic highlights. The Danube is quite justifiably one of the most popular destinations in the world for river cruise enthusiasts.
