Waltzing the Blue Danube

Danube so blue, so bright and blue… no wonder that Johann Strauss’ most famous waltz became Austria’s secret anthem.

It is a world of splendour that awaits you here: Rich cultural treasures, an enchanting river valley, a sun-caressed wine region of world class – a complete work of art.

Visit the Danube cities Linz or Vienna, taste a glas of the world famous Grüner Veltliner in the Wachau Valley and discover the Nationalpark "Donauauen" on a cruise along the beautiful blue Danube.
