8 days/7 nights, ca. 170 km, 
25–45 cycle km daily, flat, 
Premium-Boat, 76 cabins
 

Travel by bike and boat along the Danube Cycle Path from Passau to Vienna – a truly special experience for your cycling holiday. Your "floating hotel" accompanies you throughout your journey along the Danube Cycle Path! Countless memorable moments await you on your bike and ship holiday in Austria: the three-river city of Passau, the famous Schlögener Schlinge, Linz, the Wachau wine region with the Benedictine Abbey in Melk, and finally the waltz city of Vienna.

During the day, you’ll cycle along the Danube Cycle Path between Passau and Vienna, and in the late afternoon, you’ll meet the Lisabelle – the ship of your cycling holiday in Austria – which will take you to the next port. If you'd prefer a break from cycling, you can spend the day relaxing aboard the Lisabelle (the sister ship of the MS Swiss Crown).

In the evening, you can unwind with live music on board the Danube ship or explore the respective harbor city during your bike and ship journey in Austria.

The MS Lisabelle sets off on your bike vacation with a cruise through the picturesque Danube Valley.
  • Day 2 - From Engelhartszell to Brandstatt, approx. 45 km

    Your cycling and river cruise in Austria starts with a visit to the country's only Trappist monastery: Stift Engelszell, famous for its aromatic herbal schnapps and liqueurs. You'll cycle through the Upper Danube Valley, past peaceful villages and pristine landscapes. Cozy inns along the route invite you to take a break. The tempting aroma of freshly grilled 'Steckerlfisch' (grilled fish on a stick) drifts from the riverside. From the Schlögener Blick viewpoint, enjoy breathtaking views of the natural spectacle of the Danube meander.
  • Day 3 - From Brandstatt to Linz, approx. 25 km

    By midday, you'll arrive in Linz, Upper Austria's capital. Explore the European Capital of Culture 2009 with the bright yellow sightseeing train (optional). The cathedral is Austria's largest church, and the Pöstlingberg Railway is the steepest adhesion railway in the world. Curious about the future? At the “ARS Electronica Museum,” you can explore impressive examples of modern technology firsthand.
  • Day 4 - From Tulln to Vienna, approx. 30 km

    A significant stop on your Danube cycling and river cruise is the Klosterneuburg Monastery. Located on Vienna's outskirts, nestled between the Vienna Woods and the Danube wetlands, it is visible from afar along the Danube Cycle Path. Marvel at the 'Verdun Altar,' the most valuable treasure of the Augustinian Canons, and enjoy a panoramic view of Vienna from the Kahlenberg. Spend your evening in Vienna exploring the city or joining one of the optional excursions offered by the onboard crew.
  • Day 5 - Vienna, Rest Day

    A cycling tour through Vienna or a city sightseeing tour by bus is one of the highlights of your bike and ship holiday on the Danube Cycle Path (optional). Vienna's most famous landmarks slowly pass by as you travel. The magnificent Ringstraße boulevard recalls Austria's bygone imperial times. In the afternoon, consider a stroll through the city or a visit to one of Vienna's famous cafés. The evening concludes with a grand waltz and operetta concert in an opulent setting (optional).
  • Day 6 - From Krems to Melk, approx. 35 km

    This is pure enjoyment on your Austrian cycling holiday! The gentle hills of the Wachau region enchant with dreamy villages, historic castles, and palaces surrounded by apricot trees and vineyard terraces. In Weißenkirchen, inviting wine taverns known as “Heurige” are located right next to the Danube Cycle Path, offering wine tastings (optional).
  • Day 7 - From Grein to Mauthausen, approx. 35 km

    An exciting and varied route awaits you! Enjoy the medieval town of Grein, with its baroque facades, mighty castle, and Austria's oldest town theater.

  • Day 8 - Individual Departure from Passau

    Once again, enjoy the morning sunshine and the peaceful silence of the Danube Cycle Path on deck before you reach Passau, full of impressions and memories. Disembarkation from the MS Lisabelle takes place around 11 am. For your journey home from your Austrian bike and ship holiday, we recommend booking onward connections no earlier than 12 pm.

• If transportation costs increase after the conclusion of the travel contract, particularly fuel costs, we may raise the travel price according to the following calculation: a. In the case of an increase related to the cabin price, we may charge the traveler the additional amount. b. In other cases, the additional transportation costs required by the carrier per transport vehicle will be divided by the number of cabin spaces of the agreed transportation vehicle. The resulting additional amount for the cabin space can be charged to the traveler.
• If the fees at the time of the travel contract, such as port and docking fees, are increased, we may raise the travel price by the corresponding proportional amount.
• If exchange rates change after the conclusion of the travel contract, the travel price can be increased to the extent that the trip has become more expensive due to this change.
A price increase is only permissible if more than 4 months lie between the contract conclusion and the agreed travel date, and the circumstances leading to the increase were unforeseeable before the conclusion of the contract. If the travel price is adjusted, we will inform you immediately. Price increases within 20 days before the start of the trip are invalid. If the price increases by more than 5%, you are entitled to cancel the contract without any fees or request participation in a trip of at least equal value, provided we can offer such a trip from our travel offer without any additional cost to you. Please assert the aforementioned rights promptly after we inform you of the price increase.

In the event of extreme high or low water levels, the shipping company reserves the right to replace certain sections with bus transport or to cancel the trip at short notice, without this leading to any legal claims (water levels are considered force majeure).
