New Year’s Eve in Illuminated Palace Splendor
About This Cruise
Experience New Year in Passau!
The New Year’s river cruise begins in Vienna, the imperial city of palaces, domes, and festive charm. The illuminated St. Stephen’s Cathedral and baroque streets create a magical start.
Sailing through the Wachau Valley, one of Europe’s most beautiful river landscapes, the ship arrives in Dürnstein, a romantic town of vineyards, medieval alleys, and the famous blue church tower.
Next is Melk, dominated by the grand baroque Benedictine Abbey, perched high above the Danube with breathtaking views.
The highlight is Passau, where the Danube, Inn, and Ilz meet. Here, guests celebrate New Year’s Eve on board, with the old town and St. Stephen’s Cathedral providing a unique setting for the festive night.
On New Year’s Day, the cruise continues to Linz, blending modern art with historic charm along the river promenade.
Bratislava enchants with its castle, winding alleys, and lively squares.
Finally, the journey concludes in Budapest, the Pearl of the Danube. The Parliament, Fisherman’s Bastion, and illuminated bridges create a spectacular finale to an unforgettable holiday voyage.
