Enjoy a
LUXURY RIVER CRUISE ON THE DANUBE
A river cruise aboard the Riverside Mozart means luxury, local culture and loving life. No sense is left untouched. Dine in one of the first-class restaurants. Decompress in the spa with sauna and massage. Discover another world on an excursion. Or simply delight in an Earl Grey or a Taittinger on the Vista Deck as you sail serenely through the landscape of the Wachau Valley. It's one big treat for the senses.
Time ticks differently on the Riverside Mozart, as does the ship itself. It sets the standard for true luxury on the river. Enjoy suites instead of staterooms, the smallest alone measuring 215 square feet (20 sqm), while the Owner Suites deliver an expansive 883 square feet (82 sqm). No other river cruise ship on the Danube offers so much space combined, with a suite to crew ratio of 1:1. The service on board is exceptional, catering to standards enjoyed in luxury hotels the world over. When it comes to styling, different tastes can certainly divide opinion – but this ship is without a doubt uncompromisingly beautiful.
To sleep is to live
STYLE & ELEGANCE MEETS COMFORT OUR SUITES
No matter which suite you choose, you will always make the right choice. While they differ in styling, size and subtle nuances, with every suite you will enjoy: Fine materials such as leather and velvet, elegant marble bathrooms and king-size beds – plus a casual sofa or cozy armchair in which to relax. Wherever you look, you will see soft colors in the furniture and artwork, as the designers were inspired by nature and the different colors of the Danube. In every suite, your butler will ensure every cruise is a personal masterpiece.

THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE DANUBE
Vienna
Austria
Two tales. One city. Vienna is the city of classical music. Vienna is Mozart and Strauss. It’s also street art on the sandy beach and fun in the countryside. It’s bohemian and bourgeoisie, and oh so baroque. What a city!
Budapest
Hungary
No wonder many filmmakers have chosen Budapest as their backdrop. EVITA, INFERNO and SPY were filmed in Budapest. The city is a metropolis and health resort in one. It’s the Castle District ,Chain Bridge and Count Dracula. It is a city of intrigue, art, nightlife and history. There truly is something for everyone.
Bratislava
SLOVAKIA
Once understated and not very well know, Bratislava has become a pearl on the Danube. It reveals its splendor at the castle and in its enchanting old town. It is a city wih a sense of humor. Look for the bronze monument to a canal worker, who mischievously looks out of a manhole cover at the passers-by. Will you be one of them?
Linz
Austria
Linz? Often, the only things that come to mind are “Linzer Torte” and Mozart’s Linz Symphony. The city is truly underestimated, with its baroque main square and magnificent old town. Do you love a good market? Then Linz is your town, boasting eleven farmers markets and two Christmas Markets. One, the “Urfahraner Market” takes place in both the Spring and Fall. Shopping anyone?
Passau
Germany
Passau is first and foremost a university town. That is why it is young, vibrant and full of life. Then there are the three rivers, the Danube, Inn and Ilz, which flow together in the city and give it a special character. Speaking of character, Passau has quite the amount of character thanks to the prevalence of Baroque and Gothic architecture including many beautiful churchs and cathedrals as well as the Veste Oberhaus, a fortress since the Middle Ages.
Dürnstein
Austria
Dürnstein is a village with narrow streets and the canons’ monastery, whose blue church tower stretches out majestically into the Heavens – giving the city a distinctive look along the shores of the mighty Danube. High above the village is the castle, or rather what remains of the castle. It is there that you can trace an exciting story: King Richard the Lionheart was imprisoned here – and would possibly have died there if a singer had not saved him. Come learn the enchanting story yourself.
Melk
Austria
It is not just any monastery, but the monastery par excellence. Built in 1746 by order of the Benedictine monks, it sits enthroned on a rock nearly 200 feet above the ground. Surely you know the famous novel “The Name of the Rose”. The story begins in Melk Abbey and this is also where it ends – in the breathtaking library. 100,000 volumes in 12 rooms.
Grein
Austria
Between the green hills and the blue Danube is nestled the charming city of Grein. The rococo theatre in Grein, which is Austria’s oldest theater, was built in 1793 solely to provide a little diversion for the guests passing through. It is located in the middle of the enchanted old town and is still preserved. Its wooden hall is situated in today’s town hall. Another highlight is Greinsburg Castle with its maritime museum, which provides a perfect overview of the history of navigation on the Danube for history or maritime buffs.
Krems
Austria
An important trading center in ancient times, Krems is now considered one of the most ornate towns in Austria. Two of the special places in Krems are the “Körnermarkt” and the tobacco factory, where 75,000 Virginia cigars were still being produced annually in 1920. Today, parts of the factory are used for the university and the charming “Kunsthalle” featuring modern and contemporary Austrian art.
