The Blue Danube, beautifully unhurried

Three countries.
Five guided tours.
One legendary river.

Begin amid Budapest’s dramatic riverfront, linger for two days in Vienna and follow the Danube through vineyard-lined Wachau before arriving in medieval Regensburg.

With Joe and Kellie hosting, you’ll have familiar faces from the welcome aboard through the final toast—and a friendly group ready to share every discovery.

“Unpack once. Wake up somewhere wonderful.”

The journey

From imperial capitals
to medieval Bavaria.

Follow the river west from Hungary through Austria and into Germany, with the grand cities and quiet landscapes of the Danube always close at hand.
