While most river cruises limit themselves to the lower Danube region, VBT takes you one step further—exploring the entire length of this fabled river, including the shores of Germany and the medieval city of Regensburg, a UNESCO World Heritage site. By day, join your local VBT trip leaders on curated routes through choice segments of the Danube Cycle Path—pedaling past small medieval villages, colorful vineyards, and fairytale castles. You’ll explore the majesty of the Habsburg Empire during VBT’s guided tours of Schloss Hof, Passau, and Vienna. By night, relax on your luxurious Emerald cruise ship—including a sundeck with spectacular views, a heated pool, and 5-star luxury meals and included beverages. With a wealth of onboard activities and optional excursions, this is the perfect trip for travel partners with different interests and activity levels.
Tour Highlights
- Unpack once, then bike and boat along the Danube in four countries and three cultural capitals—all on one trip.
- Follow the car-free and scenic Danube and EuroVelo 6 bike paths in this bicycle-friendly region.
- Join a private guided walk including a beer tasting in Regensburg.
- Choose to be as active or relaxed as you wish from our menu of cycling routes and walking tours.
- Enjoy an exclusive Viennese concert with the music of Strauss and Mozart.
Matt and Peter were excellent guides. They worked together to be a seamless team. They anticipated all our needs and went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed our rides and our vacation. The choice of bike routes (mostly smooth) through apricot orchards, vineyards, fields and along the river, lunch places and other add-ons (ex. wine-tasting) were excellent! Wonderful having the boat as our hotel. Also, if we didn't want to ride we could join the sightseeing tours that left from the boat. I loved the pre-trip to Prague and wish I could have done the post-trip in Budapest.
