Deze betoverende Europese riviercruise van Roemenië naar Amsterdam is echt een avontuur. Glijd langs schilderachtige stadjes, prachtige uitzichten en historische gebouwen langs de Donau, Main en Rijn - en geniet aan wal van sightseeing met een gids en vrije tijd om op verkenning te gaan. Verken met een gids de oude hoofdstad van Bulgarije, Veliko Târnovo. Bezoek het Etnografisch Museum en de Geboortekerk in Arbanassi en maak foto's van de eclectische groep rotsformaties van Belogradchik en het spectaculaire uitzicht op de IJzeren Poorten. Je Donau cruise brengt je naar de hoofdsteden van drie landen: Belgrado, Servië; Boedapest, Hongarije; en Wenen, Oostenrijk, waar lokale gidsen je de hoogtepunten laten zien met tijd om zelf op verkenning te gaan. In het hart van de wijnstreek Wachau maak je een wandeling met gids in het charmante Dürnstein en later bezoek je de beroemde benedictijnenabdij van Melk. Geniet in Duitsland van sightseeing met een gids in Passau, Regensburg, Neurenberg, Bamberg en Würzburg. Vaar door het Main-Donaukanaal en passeer de dramatische Rijnkloof - het mooiste uitzicht op de Rijn waar oude kastelen op kliffen 400 meter boven het water staan. Deze buitengewone Europese riviercruise eindigt in de populaire, moderne hoofdstad van Nederland, Amsterdam. Bekijk de stad vanuit een uniek perspectief tijdens een rondvaart over de elegante Grachten, omzoomd met huizen uit de "Gouden Eeuw" van de stad.
