The details
What's included
- Board your ship in Nuremberg and settle in for your Legendary Danube journey.
- Choose from three distinct adventures on today’s excursion to Nuremberg. Join a guided tour through the city’s beautifully preserved medieval center, including the Imperial Castle and town walls; take a deeper look at the city’s WWII history with visits to the Documentation Center Nazi Party Rally Grounds, Nuremberg Trials Memoriam, and Courtroom 600 (when available); or sample local Franconian specialties such as Nuremberger Bratwurst, red beer, and gingerbread.
- Spend the day in one of Germany’s best-preserved Medieval cities, Regensburg. Opt to join a guided walking tour that highlights its Old Town, the historic town hall, and the ancient Porta Praetoria. Or, sample Bavarian beer, sausage, and pretzels on a tasting-focused tour. For a more active option, bike to Walhalla to see the striking neoclassical memorial overlooking the Danube.
- Cruise to Passau, known as the “City of Three Rivers” where you’ll have the option to join a guided walking tour in the city; hike into the hills for a visit to the “Veste Oberhaus,” Passau’s Castle Hill; or take part in a River Inn bike tour.
- Begin your day with a guided tour of Melk Abbey, known for its Baroque architecture and historic collections. Guests seeking a more active option may hike up to the abbey. Alternatively, stroll through Dürnstein’s cobblestone streets and see its famed Baroque church tower, or bike through the Wachau Valley’s scenic UNESCO landscape.
- Spend your morning on a walking tour of Vienna’s most notable sites, including the Opera House, the former Imperial Palace, and St. Stephen’s Cathedral, ending in the historic city center. Alternatively, join a guided bike tour of the city’s attractions.
