Itinerary
Day 1: UK – Budapest
We fly to Budapest in Hungary where our ship awaits. You can then relax onboard as we begin cruising along the Danube.
Day 2: Budapest - Bratislava
This morning, there’s the chance to join our optional excursion which takes you through the sweeping plains of Hungary to Lajosmizse. Here we visit a traditional stud farm and enjoy a tour of the grounds in a horse-drawn carriage, before watching a spectacular live Puszta horse show. We return to the ship for lunch onboard then the afternoon is free for you to enjoy Budapest, described by many as one of the most beautiful cities in the world. There’s so much to see on both sides of the river, including the 700-year-old Matthias Church, Parliament building – a magnificent example of neo-gothic architecture, and Buda Castle, which rises 48 metres above the river. This evening we set sail towards Bratislava.
