Experience the majestic Danube on an unforgettable river cruise with the DCS Amethyst 1. Starting in Passau, the city at the confluence of three rivers, this journey takes you to the fascinating cities of Vienna, Budapest, and Bratislava. A special highlight is the picturesque Wachau region, one of Europe’s most beautiful river landscapes, no matter the season.
Look forward to a variety of experiences, from magnificent cities and cultural treasures to idyllic natural scenery. Comfortable cabins and first-class service on board ensure a thoroughly relaxing journey along the Danube.
Passau is an old Bavarian city not far from the Austrian border. The rivers Danube, Inn and Ilz flow together in Passau, which is why it is also called the "Three-River City". One of the many sights is the Veste Oberhaus, which served as the residence of the noble bishop of the high monastery of Passau. Passau is the starting point of our cruises on the Danube.
Vienna is the capital of Austria and, with about 2.8 million people, is home to about one third of the total Austrian population and has a lot to offer both culturally and culinary. The Sacher Torte and the Wiener Schnitzel are known and loved almost worldwide. But Vienna also offers many sights and highlights that you can visit on our city tours and excursions.
Budapest - a city that was formed in 1873 from the previously independent towns of Buda, Óbuda and Pest - used to be predominantly called Pest-Buda. Nowadays, Budapest is not only the largest but also the capital of Hungary and offers numerous sights, such as the magnificent Parliament building or the Fishermen's Bastion, to name just a few examples. During our river cruises on the Danube, we offer you the opportunity to see and experience this very special city for yourself in the form of excursions and city tours.
Bratislava is the capital of Slovakia and is located near the border triangle where the borders of Slovakia, Hungary and Austria meet. This makes Bratislava the only capital in the world that borders more than one neighbouring country. Due to its location, Bratislava has been influenced by many religions and cultures in the past, which is still reflected in the cityscape today. During our Danube cruises we offer you the opportunity to take part in a guided tour of Bratislava and get to know this interesting city
The Wachau is a beautiful landscape in the Danube valley. It is located about 80 km west of Vienna and since 2000 the Wachau, together with the monasteries of Melk and Goettweig and the old town of Krems, has been part of the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage. On our Danube cruises we offer you the opportunity to learn more about this wonderful landscape and marvel at it with your own eyes on numerous excursions, such as "Schoeheiten der Wachau mit Stift Melk".
