Tulln |DANUBE

UNIQUELY TULLN: Castle Wine Tasting

Northwest of Vienna in Lower Austria is Gobelsburg Castle, where Cistercian monks from nearby Zwettl Abbey first planted vines in 1171 AD, making it the oldest winery in the Danube region. Today, it is a highly regarded wine estate that has been hailed one of the “World’s Best Vineyards”. After a short transfer from Tulln, arrive at the castle complex and tour its remarkable staterooms, impressive old vaults, and lush vineyards. Learn about the current owners, the Moosbrugger family, which has managed the vineyards according to organically integrated principles for nearly three decades, and enjoy a delightful musical performance as you sample some of its award-winning wines during a tasting.

UNIQUELY VIVIERS: Evening Stroll with Live Music

Spend part of your evening wandering along the charming lanes of Old Town Viviers. With live music harmonizing with the ancient surroundings, the setting sun casts a magical light on the cobblestone streets and centuries-old buildings. Your guide does the rest, regaling you with fascinating tales and anecdotes about how Viviers transformed from a tiny market town into a powerful (but still tiny) bishopric. As you stroll through the maze of narrow streets and alleyways, admire the grand town hall that was formerly a priest’s palace; the 18th-century Hôtel de Roqueplane, now the seat of the diocese; and a 16th-century Knights` House—as well as endless views over the Rhône River and more.

Tournus |SAONE

UNIQUELY TOURNUS: Twilight Magic

Immerse yourself in the gentle evening allure of one of southern Burgundy`s most wonderful towns during this relaxing after-dinner stroll through Old Town Tournus. Bask in the inviting sights, sounds, and heady aromas found in the pretty historic district during its most magical time of day. As the setting sun casts its golden glow, get a unique perspective of the half-timber homes, glorious 10th-century abbey, and other noteworthy sights. Then, a special treat to top off the evening – savor a refreshing glass of champagne as local musicians delight you with a scene-setting UNIQUELY RIVERSIDE private performance.

Riverside Mozart |DANUBE

UNIQUELY BUDAPEST: Grand Nighttime Entrance with Champagne

When you arrive in some cities, pomp, fanfare, and grandiosity simply are not optional. Budapest is one of those cities. As your Riverside ship makes its stately nighttime entrance into the waters of this inimitable river port, head up to the Vista Deck for the show. With atmospheric music setting the mood and champagne in hand, toast the beauty and spirit of Hungary’s magnificent capital as it rises majestically along both sides of the Danube. Cruise slowly past some of Europe’s most renowned landmarks—Buda Castle, the seemingly endless Hungarian Parliament Building, Fishermen’s Bastion, Matthias Church, and others, all illuminated brilliantly by thousands of shimmering lights.

UNIQUELY ARLES: FRENCH CULINARY JOURNEY & WINE PAIRING

Finding good food and good wine in France is easy, but this extraordinary dinner transcends the expected. Featuring hand-selected meats, fish, or seafood, seasonal produce, fresh cheeses, and traditional Provençal spices, your Riverside chef creates sheer magic. Premium ingredients are transformed into an elevated tasting menu inspired by the cuisine of southern France and the Rhône Valley. Each dish becomes a pièce de resistance as your sommelier pairs it with a wine that enhances the food’s flavors through appropriate tannins, acidity, minerality, or fruit forwardness. As you taste and experience, an engaging food expert will guide you on your gastronomic journey, entertaining and informing you with beguiling culinary storytelling.

With live music, fresh air, endless views, and a relaxed atmosphere, this is one of France`s most impressive restaurants—the Camargue itself! You’ll become enchanted by the unique scenery as you dine al fresco on local fish, seafood, and meats, seasoned with Provençal herbs and grilled to perfection right on deck. Seasonal fruits and vegetables, Mediterranean-style salads, Camargue rice specialties, rustic desserts, and the perfect wines from Provence and the Rhône Valley complete this immersive culinary treat.

Vidin |DANUBE

Uniquely Vidin: Bulgarian Home Visit & Baking Class

Travel to the private home of a friendly Bulgarian family for this enjoyable in-home cooking lesson. As you sip tea, harvested from the family garden, watch as the hostess demonstrates the proper way to prepare Banitsa, a savory cheese pastry. See the best technique for scrunching and placing the thin sheets of phyllo dough into the baking pan, hear stories about Banitsa’s place in Bulgarian cuisine, and learn about variations you can make, including dessert versions. You can even make notes on the handy recipe sheet you’ll receive. Then, roll up your sleeves, tie on an apron, and make Banitsa for yourself! When the pastry emerges flaky and golden from the oven, sample the end result before bidding your hosts a fond "doviždane" (goodbye)!
