Description

Explore the enchanting Danube Valley on a private tour from Vienna, Austria, and discover the region’s iconic Melk Abbey along with the picturesque Wachau Valley. Travel comfortably in a private car with an English or German-speaking driver who will pick you up directly from your Vienna accommodation for a full day of adventure and sightseeing.

Experience scenic drives along the lush landscapes and rolling vineyards of the Wachau Valley, making a delightful stop in the charming wine town of Dürnstein. This area is famed for its medieval history and stunning natural beauty, offering the perfect backdrop for memorable photos and leisurely exploration.

Arrive at Melk Abbey, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you’ll enjoy a private tour led by the abbey’s Official Guide. Marvel at the opulent Marble Hall, panoramic balcony, and the Baroque library while learning about the abbey’s remarkable history and its cultural significance in Austria.

Depending on your chosen option, set sail on a Danube River Cruise from Melk to Krems during the summer season, or indulge in an exclusive tasting of Austrian wines at a traditional Wachau tavern. In Krems, discover the Old Town, browse for souvenirs, and enjoy lunch at a local restaurant at your own pace.

After a day filled with culture, nature, and culinary delights, your private driver will take you back to Vienna. Secure your unforgettable Danube Valley experience now—availability is limited, so book your spot today!
