2.Danube Valley Day Trip from Vienna

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,576 reviews · 8 to 9 hours (approx.) · from $141

Explore the Wachau Valley from Vienna by coach and Danube boat, with Dürnstein, Melk Abbey, vineyards, castles, and free cancellation.

“Our Tour Guide Tommy was informative, with a dry sense of humor. The only drawback is that some of the passengers were Spanish-speaking so Tommy had to repeat what he just said in English in Spanish, so it was a bit disruptive. The village of Durnstein was quaint. The boat ride on the Danube was wonderful, since the weather was nice. Melk was worth the whole trip; we did not tour the optional Abby so we could have more time to spend wandering through the picturesque village. We found a great place to eat (there are several) and a pottery shop with great items at very reasonable prices.”
