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.

Passau

Passau
Where the Inn and the Ilz meet the Danube, under an Italianate baroque cathedral and the largest church organ in Europe.

Two nights alongside, so the opera does not have to be rushed and dinner does not have to watch the clock.

Budapest
Day 7–8
Budapest
Buda on its hill, Pest on the flat, and the Chain Bridge lit between them. The finest arrival on any European river.
