December 6-13 2028
Day 1 | 6 December 2028BudapestArrival and departure times not published | Overnight explicitly published

Welcome to Budapest, one of Europe’s most diverse and vibrant cities. Divided by the Danube, with Buda on one side and Pest on the other, the city came together in 1873 when a newly built bridge connected the two. Toast to the start of your journey during an evening reception on board your 5-star Scenic Space-Ship.

Budapest is an architectural treasure trove comprising styles from Gothic to Art Nouveau and everything in between.

Day 3 | 8 December 2028BratislavaArrival and departure times not published

Slovakia’s capital since independence in 1993, Bratislava is a modern multicultural metropolis with an intriguing history. Its Old Town is filled with glorious examples of medieval and Gothic architecture and a well-preserved hilltop castle, which dates to the 9th century.

Day 4 | 9 December 2028ViennaArrival and departure times not published

Arrive in Vienna this morning. It’s a city full of grandeur, featuring the world’s most beautiful boulevard, the Ringstrasse, and the legacy of the Habsburg monarchy.

Your Scenic Space-Ship will dock this morning in the small and picturesque town of Dürnstein, located in Austria’s picturesque Wachau Valley. Dürnstein > Melk is published as scenic cruising on Danube Christmas Markets: Budapest to Munich aboard Scenic Jade rather than as a scheduled port call.

Day 6 | 11 December 2028Linz > PassauArrival and departure times not published

Dock in the vibrant city of Linz, considered the capital of Upper Austria. Though its history dates back more than 1,200 years, modern Linz is known for its vibrant culture of art, architecture and technology. The city has a magical atmosphere during the festive season with multiple Christmas markets taking over its historic squares.

Day 7 | 12 December 2028PassauArrival and departure times not published

Set on the confluence of the Danube, Inn and Ilz rivers, Passau has been an important trading city since medieval times, particularly for salt, commonly known as ‘white gold’. Each river is distinct in colour and some days you can clearly see the green, blue, and black hues where the waters meet.

Day 8 | 13 December 2028Passau > MunichArrival and departure times not published

After a hearty breakfast, you’ll transfer to the airport for your onward or homebound flight, taking a lifetime of wonderful festive memories with you. Please book your flight to depart out of Munich after 02:00 PM. This itinerary is a guide only and may be amended for operational reasons such as high and low water.
