3.5-Hour Grand Danube River Cruise

This is the longest cruise in the operator's range, running about 3.5 hours and joining green, modern and historic Vienna in one loop. The route follows the Danube and the canal, passing Prater-side greenery, Danube Island, contemporary towers and canal-side architecture, and goes through lock systems before heading back toward the centre.

Shorter A and B packages cover individual sections in roughly two hours or 1.5 hours. Refreshments are sold onboard, and reviewers highlight friendly staff, onboard commentary and the interest of the lock passages.

It suits couples and older travellers who prefer to watch the city drift past.
