Regensburg
Day 9
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 10
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 11
Melk
Ashore
Krems
Day 11
Krems
The eastern gate of the Wachau, with cobbled lanes running up into apricot orchards and Gruner Veltliner vines.
Ashore
Vienna
Day 12–13
Vienna
Two nights alongside, so the opera does not have to be rushed and dinner does not have to watch the clock.
Ashore
Budapest
Day 14–15
Budapest
Buda on its hill, Pest on the flat, and the Chain Bridge lit between them. The finest arrival on any European river.
