On this classic cycle tour you will experience the combination of nature along the scenic riverbanks of the Danube as well as the unique opportunity to visit the most important capital cities that lay alongside the river. Vienna, Bratislava and Budapest have an overwhelming history with genuine notions of the yesteryear. Nostalgia is combined with a deeply intriguing history along the ever-changing riverbanks of the Danube. Just to scratch the surface of this tour: it takes you to the castle of Eckartsau, which happens to be the place where Austrian Emperor Karl the 1st and his wife Zita met their fate. In Bratislava the coronation of Hungarian Kings took place and the famous empress Maria Theresia acquired much of her fame, prestige and honour. In Esztergom, the first Hungarian king, King Stephan was born and accepted his coronation. Empress Sissi of Austria was crowned Queen of Hungary in Budapest.

Day 1: Vienna
Individual arrival in Vienna. (Tip: use low-cost carriers to Vienna/Bratislava). Tonight the evening belongs to you! Why not enjoy a spectacular stroll through the imperial city or visit a typical Viennese tavern with local foods and goodies‚ a so-called Heurigen? The possibilities are endless in the ‘City of Waltz‘.
Day 2: Vienna – Bad Deutsch Altenburg/ surroundings, approx. 42 km
Not far from Vienna begins an untouched alluvial landscape, and a Nature Reserve with stunning and diverse Flora and Fauna. Get away from it all and enjoy the wonderful peace and quiet, only interrupted by the twittering chirps of birds. The ancient Romans have left their print and also have relaxed in the nice warm water of Bad Deutsch Altenburg.

Day 4: Bratislava – Szigetköz – Györ, approx. 44 - 82 km
The marshy landscape of the Szigetköz is an ideal environment and paradise for birds and fish alike.
