Great Rail Journeys · Escorted River Cruise
Thousand-mile Danube river cruise from Austrian lakes to the Black Sea.

Great Rail Journeys offers a thousand-mile escorted journey combining rail and river cruise along the Danube. Beginning in the Austrian Lake District, the trip includes rail travel to Passau before transitioning to a five-star river cruise that travels the full length of the Danube through eight countries: Austria, Germany, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Romania. The journey concludes in Bucharest, near the Danube Delta where the river meets the Black Sea. This package suits luxury-seeking travellers and couples who prefer guided, all-inclusive travel with quality accommodation and meals provided throughout. The combination of scenic rail segments and extended river cruising allows passengers to experience Central and Eastern European landscapes and cities at a leisurely pace without frequent hotel changes.
