Grand European cities like Vienna, Bratislava and Budapest forever remain timeless. Admire the beauty of Austria’s Lake District and the Czech Republic’s charming mountain town, Ceský Krumlov.

The details

What's included

  • Step into the elegance of the AmaMagna and begin your Danube journey in beautiful Budapest. Unpack, relax, and savor your first evening onboard as you prepare for an unforgettable adventure ahead.
  • Discover both sides of Budapest, beginning with the storybook charm of Buda’s Castle District, Fisherman’s Bastion, and Matthias Church. Then cross to lively Pest to admire the Hungarian Parliament Building, Heroes’ Square, and the poignant “Shoes on the Danube Bank,” immersing yourself fully in this iconic European capital.
  • Experience Vienna’s cultural splendor as you tour its grand boulevards, iconic opera house, and historic center crowned by St. Stephen’s Cathedral. In the afternoon, wander through the magnificent Schönbrunn Palace and Gardens for an intimate look at Habsburg imperial life.
  • Spend the morning among Dürnstein’s pastel-blue church tower, charming lanes, and apricot delicacies before exploring the Wachau by foot or bike. Later, visit the stunning Melk Abbey and end the day with an exclusive tasting of the region’s celebrated Grüner Veltliner and Riesling.
  • Step into the storied halls of Burg Clam and sample wines shaped by centuries of tradition. Here, freshness, spice, and finesse come together in a tasting experience as timeless as the castle itself.
  • Enjoy a full-day excursion to Salzburg’s Sound of Music charm or Český Krumlov’s fairytale streets and castle. Or stay local to explore Linz’s historic old town, vibrant arts scene, or scenic bike paths along the Danube.
  • Wander through Passau’s Gothic and Baroque splendors–including St. Stephen’s Cathedral–or opt for an invigorating hike or bike ride. Conclude your day in Vilshofen with AmaWaterways’ exclusive Bavarian Oktoberfest, complete with lively music, local beer, and warm hospitality.
