10-Day Best of the Danube River Cruise

 

10-Day Best of the Danube River Cruise with Prague extension

From Passau, Germany to Budapest, Hungary | May 6th - 16th, 2026

A Danube River cruise from Passau to Budapest is a journey through the "Imperial Heart" of Europe, where the river itself acts as a silver thread connecting centuries of history, Baroque splendor, and breathtaking natural landscapes.

Step aboard the Trafalgar Reverie and discover its elegant, inviting and fabulous design. Make yourself at home as your best river cruise adventure begins. This is small ship cruising at its best with no more than 128 guests. Unpack once and settle into your comfortable stateroom. 

Enjoy lively evenings with onboard entertainment from regional performances to in-house baking demonstrations or relax and unwind, curl up with a book or share stories over regional wines or your favorite cocktail in the lounge or bar and take in the ever-changing scenery.  The Journey Begins: Passau & LinzThe voyage starts in Passau, Germany - the "City of Three Rivers." Its Old Town (Altstadt) is a maze of narrow, Italian-style alleys leading to the highest point in the city: St. Stephen’s Cathedral. This Baroque masterpiece houses the world’s largest cathedral organ with nearly 18,000 pipes. As you cross into Austria, you reach Linz, where the cobblestoned Hauptplatz (one of the largest enclosed squares in Europe) serves as the gateway to the Old Cathedral (Alter Dom).

The beauty of the Wachau Valley
Cruising further, the river carves through the UNESCO-listed Wachau Valley, arguably the Danube’s most beautiful stretch. Here lies Spitz, a picturesque wine village where terraced vineyards meet the water. The town's historic charm is anchored by the Church of St. Maurice and the nearby ruins of Hinterhaus Castle, which keep watch over the valley.

Imperial Grandeur: Vienna & Bratislava

In Vienna, the "City of Dreams," the river glides past a skyline dominated by the multi-colored tiled roof of St. Stephen’s Cathedral (Stephansdom). Exploring the Innere Stadt reveals a world of imperial palaces and hidden squares where the coffee house culture remains unchanged. Your next stop, Bratislava, Slovakia, offers a more intimate Old Town. Beneath the gaze of Bratislava Castle, you can wander past the Gothic St. Martin’s Cathedral—the historic coronation site for Hungarian monarchs—and the whimsical, Art Nouveau Blue Church.


The Grand Finale: Budapest

The journey concludes in Budapest, Hungary where the Danube splits the hilly, medieval Buda from the vibrant, bustling Pest. The arrival is cinematic: you'll sail past the neo-Gothic Parliament Building and under the illuminated Chain Bridge. On the Buda side, the Castle District invites you to explore Matthias Church with its intricate stone carvings and the Fisherman’s Bastion, providing the most iconic panoramic views of the "Blue Danube" as it winds through the city.

What's Included:

  • All meals onboard - Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner (On embarkation day, enjoy a welcome reception dinner with sparkling wine and a personal welcome from your Captain, Experience Director and Experience Manager)
  • Afternoon Teatime during one special sailing
  • Lunches and dinners include wine, beer, soft drinks, tea, coffee and water
  • Farewell reception with sparkling wine
  • Daily included excursions and optional excursions all with experienced local guides.
