Description
Step aboard a scenic Danube River cruise in Vienna and discover the city from a unique perspective. Glide along the water on the MS Wien or the artistically designed MS Vindobona, known for its vibrant exterior by Friedensreich Hundertwasser, a highlight in itself.
Departing from Schwedenplatz in the heart of Vienna, your journey begins with views of the Urania observatory before passing through the lush Prater woods. As the ship navigates the Freudenau lock, you’ll witness the tranquil green spaces that define this part of the city.
The cruise continues past Vienna’s modern landmarks, including the Danube Island, a striking hotel converted from a grain silo, and the impressive stadium. Marvel at the city’s evolving skyline as you approach the Reichsbrücke and Marina Wien stations.
As the route turns toward the Danube Canal, you’ll encounter both historic and contemporary Vienna. Admire the Hundertwasser District Heating Plant, Roßau Barracks, and the Ringturm, before returning to Schwedenplatz in central Vienna. The entire experience lasts approximately 2 hours.
This river cruise is available in English and German, accommodating up to 15 guests for an intimate sightseeing adventure. Please note that food and drinks are not included. Secure your spot now to experience Vienna’s highlights from the water before spaces fill up!
