This luxury cruise will put the Ho-Ho-Ho into your holidays! The sounds, sights, and flavors of the season beckon—in Budapest with its picturesque Castle District, impressive Parliament, and more; whimsical Bratislava, where amusing sculptures rise unexpectedly from the sewers and cannonballs from one of Napoleon`s visits remain lodged in the Old Town walls; and Vienna, the opulent domain of monarchs and musicians. In each port, visit traditional Christmas Markets to sample the Glühwein (warm mulled wine) and sizzling sausages—hot off the grill, and to shop for holiday gifts at the inviting wooden stalls. Even Mother Nature is in the gift-giving spirit as you pass through the stunning Wachau Valley with its riverbank castles and terraced vineyards. Christmas Eve and Day are in Passau, Germany`s lovely City of Three Rivers, for a holiday to remember!
Budapest has much to offer like the Castle Garden Bazaar, the Fisherman's Bastion or Mathias Church. There are plenty of highlights to explore or guests can choose to relax in one of the many hot springs spas the city is famous for.
Guest love Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, because the Old City Center is for pedestrians only and easy to explore. Add the great local food, wine and beer and you understand why guests return.
In Vienna walk in the footsteps of famous composers like Mozart or Strauss, visit one of over one hundred museums, visit Palaces, listen to great music in the famous Opera House, watch the Lipizzaner horses train at the Spanish Riding School.
Krems has much to offer; museums, historical buildings like churches and abbeys, shopping and restaurants and most of all wine. Krems is surrounded by vineyards and they produce some of the best quality wines of Austria.
Melk's main attraction is the abbey, where Benedictine monks still live and dedicate their work to culture and education. Another highlight close by is the Erzherzog Franz Ferdinand Museum auf Castle Artstetten.
Austria's third largest city and famous for its baroque styled Main Square, beautiful old town center, great shopping, the Schloss Museum and the Mariendom which can hold 20.000 worshippers.
Not even 1000 souls call Engelhartszell home. Best known for the abby and the newly opened Schütz Art Museum.
The city sits at the confluence of three rivers and had therefore military importance. The fortress Veste Oberhaus now houses the museum and the Dom features a great organ.
