River cruises and bike & boat tours with Donau Touristik combine comfort, experience, and active relaxation in a uniquely versatile way. As an experienced tour operator, Donau Touristik offers perfectly organized journeys along Europe’s most beautiful rivers – with a special focus on the Danube, one of the most popular waterways for enjoyable holidays.

Classic river cruises stand for relaxed travel with a high level of comfort. On board premium ships such as the 1st-class MS Primadonna, guests enjoy a pleasant atmosphere, excellent cuisine, and varied entertainment. As the ship glides gently through impressive landscapes, new perspectives of historic cities, charming villages, and cultural highlights unfold each day. Routes along the Danube are especially popular, for example from Passau via Vienna to Budapest or even further toward the Black Sea.

Bike & boat tours offer a special form of active holiday, perfectly combining movement and relaxation. During the day, guests explore scenic stages along the river by bike, while the ship serves as a comfortable “floating hotel.” In the evening, travelers return on board, enjoy a delicious dinner, and relax in a cozy atmosphere. This combination is ideal for those who want to stay active without giving up comfort.

The cycling routes are carefully planned and follow well-developed paths such as the famous Danube Cycle Path. Most stages are flat and therefore suitable for leisure cyclists and beginners. Thanks to luggage transport and excellent organization, guests can fully focus on the experience. Modern rental bikes and e-bikes are also available for added comfort.

Another advantage is the flexibility of these tours. Guests can decide each day whether to cycle a stage or spend a relaxing day on board. This makes the trips perfect for both active travelers and those seeking relaxation.

The experience is completed by a comprehensive service package, from personal consultation to professional travel organization. Donau Touristik creates a unique holiday experience that perfectly combines comfort, nature, culture, and activity.

 

 

 

During the war in Ukraine, the Danube port of the Ukrainian city of Reni was almost completely destroyed by missile attacks. This was intended to prevent a shift of grain exports from seaports to the Danube. For this reason, we have so far considered it absolutely irresponsible to offer trips to the Danube Delta, as these routes must run directly along the Ukrainian border for approximately 55 km.

The 2027 schedule will be finalized by September 2026. If a ceasefire is reached by then – which currently appears possible – we plan to resume our Danube Delta tours.

You can register HERE without obligation for a waiting list, and we will inform you as soon as these trips are available again.
