It rises in the legendary Black Forest, flows through the lands of the former mighty Austro-Hungarian Empire and empties into the enigmatic Balkan Peninsula. The main attraction of this 7-day cruise is the unique beauty of the Danube's scenery. The journey begins in the city of three rivers, Passau, and continues through the legendary Wachau Valley to the sophisticated and imperial cities of Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava, which attract thousands of tourists every year with their rich history and culture.
