Wien besitzt viele traumhafte Plätze. Und jetzt kommt’s: Auf wohl jedem funkelt ein anderer Weihnachtsmarkt und lockt mit dem Duft von Zimt, Punsch und lauter süßen Spezialitäten! Überall erklingt Weihnachtsmusik, und traditionelles Kunsthandwerk verführt zum Shoppen vor imperialer Kulisse. Und zwischen all der quirligen Vorfreude: Zeit, sich einfach mal treiben zu lassen. In erholsamen Stunden an Bord, in denen die Donau in festlicher Ruhe durch ihr Tal fließt. Flankiert von großartigen Winterlandschaften, erhabenen Klöstern und Ritterburgen. Es war einmal ... wie im Märchen.
Direkt am Dreiländereck mit Österreich und Ungarn, an der südwestlichen Grenze der Slowakei, liegt die Hauptstadt Bratislava, größte Stadt des Landes. Die Spuren der österreichisch-ungarischen Doppelmonarchie sind in der Altstadt allgegenwärtig. Ein gemächliches Leben zwischen Barock und Rokoko, Palais und Palisaden, Kunst und Kaffeehäusern. Genießen Sie Ihren Tag individuell im weihnachtlichen Bratislava.
Bei Ihrer Kreuzfahrt auf der Donau können Sie die österreichische Großstadt Linz kennenlernen. Hier prickelt es nur so vor Kultur und wahren Kunstschätzen. Zur Weihnachtszeit überzeugt Linz vor allem mit seinem vielseitigen Angebot auf den Weihnachtsmärkten. Auf dem Christkindlmarkt auf Weihnachten einstimmen - einfach herrlich!

You are about to enjoy a real treat for the senses as you experience the Wachau up close. You will be mesmerised by the famous Danube valley between Melk and Krems. Taking in this fascinating river landscape as you stand on the sun deck of one of the A-ROSA Danube fleet is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It is no wonder that the Wachau is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This really is an absolute must-see.
This is a real highlight of your Danube cruise: Vienna, the capital of Austria with that extra-special something. The locals sound as though they are singing when they speak, and it is customary for certain business owners to address their regular customers with their full title. That’s just the way things are done here. With its wealth of museums, galleries, palaces and castles, plus the state opera and many theatres, the city enjoys a lively cultural scene all year-round. The Viennese are proud of their city – and rightly so!

Bratislava, home to approximately 450,000 inhabitants and located on the left bank of the Danube, is a young capital city – the youngest in Europe, in fact. Throughout the old town, you’ll see traces of the Austro-Hungarian Empire wherever you go. This leisurely city of baroque and rococo, palaces and palisades, and art and coffee houses is a perfect place to wander around, marvel at impressive sights, relax and unwind.
Dürnstein is one of the most famous tourist destinations along the Austrian Danube. Experience how the beauty of the wine terraces meets the tradition of medieval architecture. The English King Richard the Lionheart was imprisoned in the ruins of Dürnstein Castle in the 12th century - a destination not be missed.

"Gateway to the Wachau": Step into the UNESCO World Heritage Site and admire the Danube valley from above. The town of Melk with its impressive Benedictine monastery sits majestically enthroned on a hill and offers you a breathtaking view. A perfect blend between city and nature.
Your Danube cruise is the perfect opportunity to get to know the Austrian city of Linz. It offers an exciting mix of cultural attractions and true works of art.
