Itinerary
Day 1
Travel to Germany - Fly to Munich, then board your included transfer and travel to Passau, where your contemporary A-ROSA vessel will be waiting, ready to get underway this afternoon. Alternatively, make your own way from home to the ship, in your own time, in time to embark.
Day 2
Vienna, Austria - After a morning cruising through the stunning scenery of the Wachau Valley and eastwards down the Danube, the A-ROSA FLORA will arrive in Vienna. Discover the city's Baroque palaces, historic churches and museums, elegant shopping arcades and pleasant open spaces on an included tour, then head out to explore. Stroll streets adorned with festive lights, browse the stalls of the city's Christmas markets searching for that perfect gift, or settle into the elegant warmth of one of the many historic Viennese coffee houses.
One of the most famous markets is in the shadow of Schönbrunn Palace. This magnificent building was an Imperial summer home, and once echoed with the music of the young Mozart. In the run up to Christmas the great courtyard is home to a colourful Christkindlmarkt offering still more festive gifts and treats.
The A-ROSA local destination scout will be on hand to assist you with suggestions to get the best from your time in Vienna.
