The Danube as a Guide From quiet shores to vibrant metropolises

Music lingers in the air in Salzburg. Baroque alleyways, hidden courtyards, and the imposing Hohensalzburg Fortress whisper tales of times long past. Along the banks of the Salzach, the water glistens in the sunlight, while the scent of freshly baked strudel drifts through the coffeehouses, tempting the senses.

A few kilometres away, the mountain world is reflected in the emerald-green Königssee. A boat glides silently across the still water, broken only by the echo of a trumpet. Here, nature reveals itself in its most impressive form – raw, majestic, and untouched.

Austria, Walchau, Aggstein

Then, the call of the vineyards. In Lower Austria, near St. Pölten, the rolling hills of the Wachau stretch out, lined with vines glowing golden in the afternoon sun. A tasting at Weingut Malat unveils the rich diversity of this traditional region – from crisp Grüner Veltliner to full-bodied Riesling. Finally, Vienna appears on the horizon. Imperial elegance unfolds along grand boulevards, historic coffeehouses, and world-renowned museums. A waltz drifts through the air as the legendary Sachertorte is served in a traditional patisserie.

For those who want to get a taste of Budapest, the Danube leads the way – where magnificent bridges, thermal baths, and the city’s shimmering lights provide a breathtaking finale to this journey.

Hungary, Pudapest, Buda Castle

This journey leads to where Austria tells its northern stories in a quiet, elegant way – in baroque alleyways, at serene lakes, and along the gentle flow of the Danube. Between imperial splendour and untouched nature, an experience unfolds that is rich in depth, elegance, and timeless beauty.
