Individual arrival in Passau. Embarkation from about 16:00 p.m. to 17:00 p.m. Departure to
Engelhartszell, arrival approx. 21.00 pm.
By bike and boat along the Danube - a very special experience, because your "floating hotel" is always with you! The impressive natural spectacle of the Schlögener Danube Loop, the fascinating landscape of the Wachau with its vineyard terraces, the untouched floodplain forests of the Donauauen National Park and the picturesque Hungarian Danube Bend alternate with pulsating metropolises such as Vienna, Bratislava and Budapest. The wide river runs like a silver thread through Budapest and divides the city into the mountainous Buda and the flat Pest. In Esztergom, the imposing dome of the basilica greets you from afar. Bratislava, the Slovakian capital at the foot of the Little Carpathians, invites you to take a long stroll with its enchanting old town. Fancy a little flirtation with Vienna, the city of the waltz? A firework display of sights, small, dreamy coffee houses and cozy wine taverns await you.



The bike tour through the romantic river landscape of the Danube Loop begins in Engelhartszell (Austria's only Trappist monastery), one of the most beautiful sections of the Danube with dreamy villages at the foot of lush green forested slopes. In Brandstatt you board the boat again and continue the journey by boat.
Arrival by boat in Bratislava. Cycle tour from Bratislava via Hainburg to the impressive Hof Castle with its magnificent terraced garden and then via Devin back to Bratislava. Tip: Take a ride on the vintage train through the magical old town. Enjoy a wonderful panoramic view of the capital of Slovakia from Pressburg. Night boat trip to Budapest.
Early risers can enjoy a fantastic view of the majestic landscape of the Danube Bend and the breathtakingly beautiful panorama of Budapest from the sun deck. Explore the countless sights of Budapest or take a bike trip to the small artists' town of Szentendre with its lovingly restored old town, numerous churches and artists' galleries. Boat trip to Vàc at night.
The bike tour through the Danube Bend is also a trip into the history of Hungary. From the baroque town of Vác with Hungary's only triumphal arch, you cycle through the picturesque, gently rolling landscape of the Hungarian Wachau to Esztergom, where the magnificent basilica towers high above the castle district. In the afternoon, you take a boat trip to Vienna.
Today is time to discover the beauties of Vienna: perhaps the Hofburg, St. Stephen's Cathedral, the magnificent Ringstrasse boulevard with the State Opera, Burgtheater or the City Hall? At night, take a boat trip to Dürnstein or Rossatz in the beautiful Wachau.
The gently rolling hills, characterised by dreamy villages, vineyard terraces, castles, monasteries and ruins, have enchanted everyone. The blue tower of the abbey church, a landmark of the Wachau, towers over the baroque town of Dürnstein. In the afternoon, the imposing Melk Abbey awaits you, one of the most important baroque buildings in Austria. You board the ship again in Pöchlarn. In the evening, there is a celebratory farewell dinner. At night, you will sail to Passau.
Relaxed and rested, you will arrive in Passau at around 10:00 am. Afterwards, you will disembark and travel home individually.

If, for example, a route cannot be navigated due to low or high water or bad weather, the captain reserves the right to change the route for your safety (this is not a free reason for cancellation). The same applies to lock and/or bridge repairs ordered by the authorities and not announced in advance.
Other information: Please remember that your river boat is not only your "holiday hotel" but also a working tool that moves using motor power and needs to be operated constantly, even at night (sometimes when passing through locks and bridges). We recommend that guests who are particularly sensitive to noise bring earplugs. Disturbances must always be expected when passing through locks.
