Palaces lit up on New Year's Eve Itinerary
Day 1
Vienna
Vienna is the capital of Austria and at the same time one of the federal states. The city on the Danube exudes the charm of the former imperial couple Franz Joseph I and Elisabeth, known as Sissi. The once splendidly built Schönbrunn Palace was the home of the Empress and can still be visited today. The beautiful garden and the adjacent zoo are one of the city's many highlights. A visit to St. Stephen's Cathedral, Café Sacher and the Prater amusement park are part of every stay in Vienna.

Day 3
Dürnstein
The small town is part of the Lower Austrian cultural landscape of Wachau, is located directly on the Danube and is surrounded by vineyards. Those arriving by ship have a beautiful view of the two main attractions of Dürnstein: The ruins of the Kuenringerburg towering high above the city, in which Richard the Lionheart was held for several months in 1192/93, and the Dürnstein monastery. The latter is a monastery of the Augustinian Canons which was closed at the end of the 18th century and is known for its blue and white bell tower.
Day 4
Passau
Passau is known as a three-river city and is the first port on the Danube that is navigable by cruise ships. From here the big tours via Vienna, Bratislava and down to the Black Sea start. But the city itself also has a lot to offer, such as the opera house, the Ilz, a small river that is great for hiking, or St. Stephen's Cathedral and the old town hall. A visit to the Passau Glass Museum is particularly recommended, if you want to turn your back on the city, you can go to the Mariahilf pilgrimage church just outside.

Day 5
Linz on the Danube
Linz (205,000 inhabitants) is the third largest city in Austria and the capital of the federal state of Upper Austria. It is located on the Danube and impresses with its rich cultural offer. Events such as the “Ars Electronica”, the Bruckner Festival and the “Pflasterspektakel” attract numerous visitors every year. Other attractions include the Ars Electronica Center, the Lentos Art Museum, the Botanical Garden and the imposing Mariendom. The landmark of Linz is located high above the city: it is the pilgrimage basilica on the Pöstlingberg, visible from afar.
Day 6
Bratislava
The capital of Slovakia lies on the border with Austria and Hungary. Around 450,000 people live in it. The old town of Bratislava dates back to the 18th century and, thanks to the car-free zone, invites you to stroll. The city's famous dark beer is served in the cafés and bars there. The landmark of Bratislava - Hrad Castle is located on a hill. From its terrace you have the best view of the city and the Danube.
Day 7
Budapest
Together with the Danube, Budapest forms the most beautiful landscape of a city on the river. Budapest is one of the most glamorous metropolises of the old Austro-Hungarian dual monarchy. The Hungarian capital is a must for city travelers. For lovers of the architecture of the early 20th century, Art Nouveau and the Secession, the lively city is a true Eldorado. The city is best explored on foot. A ride on the historic funicular is a special experience. UNESCO has declared the buildings on the banks of the Danube and the castle hill to be World Heritage Sites.
