Paris
Day 1–4
Paris
The Seine runs through the heart of it, past Notre-Dame, the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower.
Embark
Amsterdam
Day 5
Amsterdam
Seventeenth-century canal houses leaning over the water, the Rijksmuseum a short walk away, and more bicycles than residents.
Ashore
Cologne
Day 6
Cologne
The twin spires of the cathedral stand over the Rhine, as they have since the Middle Ages, beside a lively old town.
Ashore
Rudesheim
Day 7
Rudesheim
A wine town on the Rhine, its narrow Drosselgasse lined with taverns and the vineyards rising steeply behind.
Ashore
Miltenberg
Day 8
Miltenberg
A Main town known for its half-timbered market square, below the Mildenburg castle.
Ashore
Bamberg
Day 10
Bamberg
A UNESCO-listed old town built across seven hills, with its town hall standing in the middle of the river.
Ashore
Nuremberg
Day 11
Nuremberg
A walled medieval city of half-timbered houses below its imperial castle, and home to one of Germany's best-known Christmas markets.
Ashore
Regensburg
Day 12
Regensburg
A medieval city that never lost its centre. The Stone Bridge is nine hundred years old and still the way you walk into town.
Ashore
Passau
Day 13
Passau
Where the Inn and the Ilz meet the Danube, under an Italianate baroque cathedral and the largest church organ in Europe.
Ashore
Melk
Day 14
Melk
A golden baroque Benedictine abbey on a rock above the Danube, at the western gate of the Wachau.
Ashore
Vienna
Day 15
Vienna
The Ringstrasse, the Hofburg and the old coffee houses, all within an easy walk of one another. A city that rewards an unhurried afternoon.
Ashore
Budapest
Day 16–18
Budapest
Buda on its hill, Pest on the flat, and the Chain Bridge lit between them. The finest arrival on any European river.
