Through this romantic scenery full of history and legends the Danube winds its way past charming old villages and steep vineyards. The old castles tell us about the former importance of this trade- and trafficway, one of them - Durnstein - especially famous, because here King Richard Lionheart was imprisoned, while waiting for his ransom to arrive from England, raised by his faithful Minstrel Blondel. During a romantic boat-trip the history comes alive. The heart of the Wachau is the old wine-merchants town Krems. To complete this day of highlights you will visit Melk, the Cradle of Austria, the magnificent Benedictine Abbey, a pearl of the Austrian Baroque. Possibility for lunch at the Abbey Restaurant at Melk.
Totally, we will have three stops, at Durnstein, at Krems and at the Melk Abbey. The stops in Durnstein and Krems last 20 minutes approximately. In Melk Abbey we are going to stay longer.
