“Great trip full of wonderful surprises! Our guide Tommy was very nice and helpful and the driver Mohammed was very professional also. I loved Dürnstein and Melk and particularly the boat ride with many interesting sites on the way - there were announcements on the boat in German and English for every place of interest. Highly recommended!”
Review the Vienna evening Danube cruise, with sunset views, onboard dining, practical tips, drawbacks, and advice on who should book.
“We purchased our tickets on-line almost a week before and on the day of the trip were at the gate an hour before departure. When the gate opened and were going to board the ship we were told that we need to have printed tickets. So we had to go to the ticket office (accessed via a flight of steps near the gate) and have these printed. Meanwhile we ended up at the end of the line. This shld have been notified to us in one of the emails sent prior to the event so that we wld have them ready. Otherwise the trip was well organised and we recommend…”

Travel from Vienna to Bratislava by coach, explore the Old Town with a local guide, then return by high-speed catamaran on the Danube.
“It was not advertised as only going on the Danube one way. It would also have been better to cruise in daylight rather than in the dark. Bratislava is a traditional looking town and I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. The guide was very knowledgeable.”
Review the Vienna Danube Tower for panoramic views, dining, practical ticket tips, transport advice, costs, and who should visit.
“While Viator states that it open 10AM to 10 PM, they do not tell you that the upper deck and the slide closes at 9:00 PM. We went at 8:55 PM and by the time we took some pictures, they would not let us up to do either.”
