Exclusively inclusive river cruising
When your road is the Danube, it's enchanting... Hungary, Austria, Slovakia, and Germany are linked by peaceful river landscapes dotted with storybook castles and romantic villages surrounded by stone terraced vineyards, where making world-class wines – and tasting them! – is an art.
A wonderfully preserved medieval castle and town in the Czech Carpathian mountains are as awe-inspiring as the palaces and museums of Imperial Vienna. As you cruise from port to port, explore the cobblestone streets and market squares in the Old Towns of Budapest, Bratislava, Cesky Krumlov, Grein, and Passau, each offering unexpected cultural treasures and culinary pleasures around every bend. And the pièce de résistance – a Tauck Exclusive gala evening with music and dancing at a private palace conjures up elegant Old World Europe just for Tauck guests!

Enjoyed the trip very much. Was in awe of all the beautiful cathedrals, castles and scenery. Loved the history of each place, but would have liked some information on the current lifestyles of the occupants of the area. The staff was tremendous, from the Tauck directors to the staff in the dining room and Panorama Lounge.
Most Memorable Moment:
The farewell dinner at the Palais Pallavicini.
This itinerary will change starting next year so I can only recommend Danube cruising with Tauck in general. As I now look back at our pictures from the trip I am amazed at all we did and how easy it all was. The boat, hotels and day trips were all well planned and managed. The night at the palace in Vienna was the over the top Tauck event.
Most Memorable Moment:
Most memorable for us was the excursion to the Mauthausen Concentration Camp. It was horrifying to walk through it all but I am glad I did and the local guide was fabulous. Not everything in Europe is all palaces, cathedrals and fine art.
