Danube Getaway to Passau

About This Cruise

A short escape with room for fresh perspectives: sail aboard VIVA TWO from Vienna to Passau in three nights, following the Danube via Krems, Melk and Linz. At the beginning of spring, Austrian city discoveries meet the relaxing pleasure of travelling by water. Board in Vienna and leave everyday routines behind. A Signature Dinner is planned for embarkation day, adding a culinary touch to the start of your journey. Krems opens the visits along the way with the excursion option “Cobblestones & Cellars”. Melk follows with “Baroque Dreams”, bringing a baroque theme to the programme. Two destinations in one day offer different impressions, connected by the river that carries you between them. In Linz, choose an optional guided city walk or an excursion exploring the highlights of Salzburg. This gives you another opportunity to shape your stay around your interests. Between ports, watch the banks glide past, enjoy conversation and let the places you have visited settle into memory. The ship remains your familiar retreat all the way to Passau. Austria and Germany frame four days that combine culture with pauses to unwind. Whether you want to discover new places or simply take a break, this Danube journey brings variety into a compact escape. Return home with the anticipation of spring and memories of discoveries shared along the way. Enjoy the change of scene, notice the small details and allow yourself to travel at the river's pace as each stop adds its own character to the voyage.

Itinerary

Austria

Vienna

Austria’s capital is one of those cities that every traveler should visit at least once in their lifetime. Hardly any other city in the world offers such an enchanting combination of magnificent architecture, world-famous museums and theaters, and beautiful green spaces. It’s no wonder that Vienna’s entire city center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Vienna is known worldwide for its palaces of emperors, kings, and nobles, such as Schönbrunn Palace, the Belvedere, and the Hofburg. But the city’s many churches—especially St. Stephen’s Cathedral, its iconic landmark—are also well worth a visit. Museum lovers will certainly get their money’s worth at the city’s numerous world-class museums, such as the Albertina, the Kunsthistorisches Museum, and the Leopold Museum.

Austria

Krems

Krems is considered one of Austria’s oldest cities: it was first mentioned as “Chremisa” as early as 995, and documents from 1305 confirm that Krems and Stein were granted city rights. This centuries-long history, which has always been closely intertwined with the Danube, is reflected in the old towns, which—together with the Wachau region—have been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site since the year 2000. A stroll through Krems and Stein offers plenty to discover: whether it’s the many churches from different eras or the narrow, cobblestone streets and picturesque squares with their historic buildings, statues, and small monuments—anyone who walks through Krems and Stein with their eyes open will be richly rewarded! If the weather in the Wachau happens to be less than ideal, the museums along the Krems Art Mile offer a varied program for young and old alike.

Austria

Linz

Linz is the capital of the state of Upper Austria. Around the central main square, churches, pretty facades, and charming shops invite you to take a stroll through the old town. Once you’re here, be sure to stop by one of the cozy coffeehouses and enjoy the world-famous Linzer Torte—it tastes best right where it comes from. A breathtaking panorama unfolds from the Pörstlingberg, which can be reached on foot or conveniently by mountain railway. From the observation deck and the Baroque pilgrimage church, we recommend a detour to the Grottenbahn, an enchanting fairy-tale world that makes not only children’s eyes light up.

Germany

Passau

Thanks to its unique geographical location at the confluence of the Danube, Inn, and Ilz rivers, Passau is undoubtedly one of Germany’s most unique cities. But it’s not just the location of this “City of Three Rivers” that is extraordinary—Passau also offers its visitors numerous remarkable sights. Towering over the city is the Veste Oberhaus, an impressive 13th-century fortress. Passau’s Old Town is known for its beautiful Baroque architecture, most notably St. Stephen’s Cathedral with its distinctive onion domes and the world’s largest cathedral organ, featuring nearly 18,000 pipes.
