“My son loves the slide from the tower. We had so much fun”
Danube Valley day trip from Vienna with Wachau Valley coach sights, a Spitz-to-Melk boat ride in summer, and optional guided Melk Abbey.
“The tour was well planned and executed. The guide was full of knowledge. She was extremely professional and kind. This tour is a must do.”
Vienna to Wachau Valley and Dürnstein, then Melk Abbey. In summer you add a Danube Blue Danube boat cruise.
“It was such an easy way for us to see the places on our list in the Wachau Valley. It was extremely well organized and comfortable. Our guide was excellent and spoke several languages fluently. We really enjoyed it! Dürnstein was a little rushed but of course this is the nature of a day tour. There was a choice to buy lunch on the boat ride, or in the small town of Melk, before entering the Abbey. We strolled through the town and enjoyed a fresh sandwich from a bakery. It was a lovely day.”
Evening Danube cruise from Vienna with sunset skyline views, live camera screens, and onboard schnitzels on MS Vindobona or MS Wien.
“The boat was older, we had just done a dinner cruise in Prague....no comparison! This was soooo expensive! We were only able to book the cheaper dinner and the better dinner was available for $40 more. The food was ok, the service was excellent! Our server was kind and attentive! I asked for something that wasn't on the menu, and he was able to get a little bit for me. The onlt area to go outside was the rear and it was small and full of smokers. I would not do this again.”
A 3.5-hour Grand Danube cruise from Schwedenplatz, passing locks, bridges, and city landmarks across green Vienna, modern Vienna, and the canal.
“Great way to see Vienna from a different perspective, especially going through the 2 locks.”
See Vienna from the Danube on a DDSG Blue Danube cruise, with optional Viennese food on a short or long ride.
“A great Way to see Vienna from the seaside. Very nice cruise ship and good service”
Vienna Danube Tower visit with an express lift to 150m and 360° views. Tickets include entry; restaurant reservations required.
“Not really value for money. Can see the same, if not better, view from the Schonbrun palace gardens for free. Cafe was not open neither was restaurant unless pre booked. Pretty disappointed if I’m honest”
