Have you ever thought about discovering a new side of Europe… by boat? How about a 10-night cruise from Austria to Romania? Hop aboard and be immersed in a coastal wonderland as you traverse seven different countries all on one beautiful river cruise. Every nautical mile traveled is guaranteed a breathtaking view, and aboard the Amadeus Brilliant – a private 4-star ship and a place to call home for a 1,200-mile journey along the Danube – you’ll be floating in luxury. Along the way, regain your land-legs as you explore famous capital cities in Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria and Romania. When on board, amenities like all-inclusive meals and private rooms are yours to help recharge for the day.

Not Your Average European Tour

This isn’t just any trip to Europe. It’s a European river cruise! Discover five world-famous capital cities—Vienna, Budapest, Bratislava, Belgrade and Bucharest—all the while peacefully sleeping through each mile traveled in-between. Learn the history behind the Iron Gates as you pass by the narrow gorge that separates Serbia from Romania. Along the way witness ancient Constanta and the breathtaking Danube Delta – the second largest river delta in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Curated for the Culturally Curious

A cruise along the Danube River is packed with cultural experiences. From a lively night tour of Vienna and a Jewish heritage tour in Budapest, to a scenic ride through Croatia, and the famous golden sand beaches of the Black Sea – there’s no better place to immerse yourself in new discoveries. A highlight in Croatia’s Kopački Rit Nature Park is the opportunity to visit a typical rural house to learn about traditional fishing tools used by local fishermen. Don’t forget your sense of humor because these fishermen have some very amusing stories to tell.
