Arrive at Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport. If you have arranged a Uniworld arrival transfer, you will be greeted by a Uniworld representative and transferred to the ship.

Day 2 - Budapest, Esztergom
Located on opposite sides of the Danube, Buda and Pest each has a distinctive character and allure all its own. Explore this dynamic and multi-faceted city with a panoramic tour, or choose our Jewish Heritage excursion offering you a detailed introduction to Jewish Budapest.

Day 3 - Vienna
The grand dame of the Danube, Vienna was the heart of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and remains, to this day, the political and cultural center of Austria. Klimt painted here; Beethoven and Mozart composed here; Freud developed his theories here. It's a treasure trove of splendid architecture, astonishing art collections and inviting cafés—and today it is yours to explore.
Featured Excursions
Klimt at the Belvedere
Jewish Vienna

Day 4 - Durnstein
Dürnstein is one of our favorite towns along the Danube, a lovely place to wander cobblestone lanes and browse quaint shops. For your included tour today, opt for a tasting or learn all about the world‘s costliest spice from the Wachau Valley’s only saffron grower.
Featured Excursions
Dürnstein Village and Saffron Talk
Picture-Perfect Dürnstein with Local Treats

Day 5 - Linz
Linz may be best known for its famous Linzer torte, but it‘s also a hotbed for the arts. See the sights with a local expert and visit a family at their farm in the countryside. Austria’s third-largest city, Linz boasts a long history of trading and textile manufacturing, but these days it is perhaps best known for its electronic arts and annual festival.
Featured Excursions
Linz Town and Country: Linzertorte and Cider Farm Visit
Mauthausen Concentration Camp

Day 6 - Engelhartszell, Passau
Your ship cruises through a scenic highlight of the Danube early this morning, the Schlögener Schlinge—a hairpin loop in the Danube that was once very hazardous for ships and is now a lovely, serene stretch of water—and leaves Austria behind today. Your first German port of call is Passau, where three rivers meet—the Inn, the Ilz and the Danube—and three nations almost meet: Austria, Germany and the Czech Republic, making for a fascinating cultural mosaic.
