What to expect

This one day trip starts in Vienna and takes you to the beautiful Danube Valley in the Wachau region, which is steeped in history and legends, the Danube winds its way past many picturesque towns and vineyards.

The comfortable coach takes you from Vienna to Krems, the heart of the Wachau winegrowing region. Depending on the season, you either have a short break there or drive through the historical city centre. The next stop is Dürnstein and Spitz, where you can enjoy a boat ride on the Danube during the summer months. In Melk, the coach awaits you to take you to the nearby Benedictine Abbey. The highlight of the trip is a guided tour of the abbey, one of Austria’s most famous baroque buildings.

The tour ends at the Vienna State Opera.
