Itinerary

Arrive at the airport. If your cruise/tour package includes a group arrival transfer or if you have purchased a private arrival transfer, you will be greeted by a Uniworld representative at the Munich airport and transferred to the ship.

Included Meals: Dinner

Bavaria's first capital, Regensburg, owes its impressive historical lineage and rich architectural heritage to 600 years as a Free Imperial City, a fact recognized by UNESCO in 2006. Today, you'll discover how the beautifully preserved medieval city coexists with a vibrant modern urban center. A special Captain's Welcome Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you this evening. (B/L/FD)

Featured Excursions: Choice of Bavarian History & Beer OR Nights Out: Regensburg Cathedral Choir OR Regensburg Walking Tour OR “From Hops Field to Beer Stein” Farm Visit

Passau is a crossroads in more ways than one—three rivers meet here and three nations nearly do, making for a fascinating cultural mosaic.

Featured Excursions: Choice of Home Hosted Visit OR Fairytale Forest Adventure OR Meet the Locals OR Ilz River Hike

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Linz may be best known for its famous Linzer torte, but it's also a hotbed for the arts. See the sights with a local expert and visit a family at their farm in the countryside. Austria's third-largest city, Linz boasts a long history of trading and textile manufacturing, but these days it is perhaps best known for its electronic arts and annual festival.

Featured Excursions: Choice of Linz Town and Country: Linzertorte and Cider Farm Visit OR Mauthausen Concentration Camp OR The Taste of Salzburg

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Dürnstein is one of our favorite towns along the Danube, a lovely place to wander cobblestone lanes and browse quaint shops. For your included tour today, opt for a tasting or learn all about the world's costliest spice from the Wachau Valley's only saffron grower.

Featured Excursions: Choice of House of Strauss OR Dürnstein Village and Saffron Talk OR Picture-Perfect Dürnstein with Local Treats

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

The grand dame of the Danube, Vienna was the heart of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and remains, to this day, the political and cultural center of Austria. Klimt painted here; Beethoven and Mozart composed here; Freud developed his theories here. It's a treasure trove of splendid architecture, astonishing art collections and inviting cafés—and today it is yours to explore.

Featured Excursions: Choice of Klimt at the Belvedere OR Schönbrunn Palace OR Vienna's Historic Trails and Local Treats

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Located on opposite sides of the Danube, Buda and Pest each has a distinctive character and allure all its own. Explore this dynamic and multi-faceted city with your choice of excursions—you can see it from a local's perspective on a walking tour, or cover more ground with a panoramic tour. In the evening, a special Captain's Farewell Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you.

Featured Excursions: Choice of Budapest Walk with Local Treats OR Budapest Panoramic Highlights with Castle Hill

Included Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Disembark the ship. If your cruise package includes a group departure transfer or if you purchased a private departure transfer, you will be transferred to Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport for your flight.
