A Journey through Centuries of History
Vienna, the capital of Austria, is known for its impressive historical and cultural heritage. From the majestic Habsburg palaces to the elegant avenues, every corner of the city exudes the grandeur of its imperial past. And what better way to explore this history than from the tranquility of the waters?
Our journey begins on the Danube, Europe’s second longest river, which meanders through Vienna. As we enter its waters, we will be captivated by the sight of the majestic Schoenbrunn Palace. From the boat, you can feel the grandeur of this imperial residence and contemplate the gardens that spread out like a blanket of greenery.
The Danube Canal: Vienna at a Relaxed Pace
If you want to experience Vienna in a more relaxed way, the Danube Canal is the perfect choice. Cruising along the canal will allow you to explore the city at a more leisurely pace while enjoying the cool breeze. As we make our way along, you’ll see the Danube Tower, a modern architectural gem that contrasts with the city’s rich history.
But it’s not just the architecture that will make this boat trip unforgettable. Vienna is dotted with elegant bridges that rise majestically over the water. The famous Bridge of Spies, for example, will make you feel like you’re in a Cold War spy movie. In addition, murals and graffiti along the canal tell contemporary stories that add a layer of authenticity to your experience.
A Walk along the Blue Danube
Vienna is widely known as the birthplace of classical music, and the Danube plays an important role in this tradition. On our tour, we will take a trip on the Blue Danube, the beautiful river that inspired Johann Strauss’ famous composition. As we cruise along its waters, you can let yourself be carried away by the notes of this iconic piece of music, performed live by local musicians.
The Blue Danube will take you through some of Vienna’s most iconic sights. From the Vienna State Opera to the majestic St. Stephen’s Cathedral, you will have a privileged view of the architecture and beauty of the city.
A Stroll along the Ring Canal
The Ring Canal, or “Ringstrasse,” is one of Vienna’s most famous thoroughfares, and is also accessible from the water. As we cruise along this canal, you’ll see the iconic buildings lining the famous 19th-century boulevard. Vienna’s City Hall, Parliament and the University of Vienna are just some of the architectural gems you can see from the comfort of your boat.
On our trips, good food is always an important part of the experience. As we explore Vienna from the water, you can sample authentic Austrian dishes and enjoy the flavours of the region. From classic Wiener Schnitzel to delicious desserts such as Apfelstrudel, your palate will experience a gastronomic journey that perfectly complements your visual exploration.
