Exclusively inclusive river cruising
Moments of history shape the sights you’ll see in the cities and towns along the Danube River, bookended by moments indelibly etched in time in Berlin and Kraków.
During a three-night stay in Kraków, poignant pauses in Poland's one-time capital, Auschwitz and Kazimierz pay homage to lives lost in tragic times. Board your Tauck riverboat in Hungary for a 7-night cruise, crossing into Austria to experience its storied capital, Vienna, with choices of sightseeing and an Imperial Evening at a private palace; stop at Linz for a walking tour or boat ride in the nearby Lake District; explore Krems and the Wachau Valley by bicycle; and visit historic and charming Bavarian towns like the "city of three rivers," Passau; ancient Regensburg; and cobblestoned Straubing, dating back to 6,000 BC. Then it's on via high-speed train to a three-night stay in Berlin, chronicling past political divides with a look back at Iron Curtain curfews, Jewish hardships and wartime woes, while cultural narratives in the museums on Museum Island showcase an evolution of art through the ages – and choices including an excursion to Potsdam, a Berlin bicycling trip and more.

We enjoyed all the amenities and the Tauck Directors and staff. Have been on other cruises, first one with Tauck..they take great care to detail......ship was well appointed, staff did their best to be polite and courteous and cheerful! There were a few "bumps" along the way, however this was the first trip on this route and it all went well.
Most Memorable Moment:
The dinner at the Palace in Vienna, got to dance the Viennese Waltz the entertainment was fabulous.....the visit to the piano factory in Beyreuth Austria...absolutely amazing!
The content was glorious. The staff was extraordinary. The riverboat was as good as it gets. On the other hand, the hotels were mediocre, with the first utterly awful. A hovel -- blamed on Tauck. It was a small room on the first floor with defective air-conditioning that was never fixed. It overlooked a motorcycle parking lot and storage bins.
Most Memorable Moment:
Auschwitz. (It would be a good idea to call us about our comments in the above, "Tell us about your trip." There was no further room and we do have additional comments.) Our "Maybe" below is based on the comments above and the room in second hotel, The Adolon Hotel in Berlin room also had defective air-conditioning and it smelled like a sewer.
