Youll become convinced that Prague is one of Europes most attractive cities on our guided tour this morning.

This afternoon is at leisure for further sightseeing.

  • Guided tour of Prague, including Prague Castle, St Georges Basilica, Old Palace and Golden Lane (morning)

 

Day 3 Prague

Today is at leisure. Perhaps admire the citys magnificent baroque and Romanesque architecture or simply enjoy the views from the banks of the River Vltava. Youll also notice the city has a fine cultural tradition going back centuries – Haydn, Beethoven, Liszt and Mozart all spent time in Prague; and it was here that Figaro was first acclaimed and Don Giovanni received its first performance.

 

Day 4 Vienna

We journey through endless rolling vistas and dense forest today as we travel to the imperial grandeur of Vienna.

 

Day 5 Vienna

Soak up the sights of Vienna on a sightseeing tour. Renowned for its fine buildings, our tour includes views of the lavish, terraced gardens of Prince Eugenes Belvedere Palace, the State Opera, the sprawling Hofburg residence of Emperor Franz Joseph, and the Parliament buildings.

Day 6 Vienna

This morning we visit Schnbrunn Palace, a building of architectural splendour, commissioned as a summer residence by Emperor Leopold I for his son Josef I. Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France, spent her childhood there; and its said that Mozart astonished the court with his musical performance at the tender age of six.

Decorated in the Rococo style of the 18th century, the apartments are adorned with frescoes, crystal chandeliers, priceless tapestries, and furniture. In the courtyard stands the Wagenburg Museum, showing numerous coaches and sleighs from the Imperial era.

We return to the city centre, where the remainder of the day is free to further explore this fascinating and historic city.

Day 7 Vienna – Bratislava – Budapest

We journey to Bratislava for free time in Slovakias capital. It has many fine buildings – its baroque and rococo palaces are as elegant as any in Vienna.

Late afternoon, we arrive in the beautiful city of Budapest. The plains of Pest are divided from the hilly area of Buda by the scenic River Danube, which inspired writers, artists and musicians for centuries. In Buda, Gellert Hill affords a wonderful view of the city, river and mountains. On the Pest side are the Parliament buildings and the National Museum, which contain remarkable treasures including the oldest skull yet found in Europe and Liszts gold baton.

  • Visit Bratislava (morning)

 

Day 8 Budapest

Join our local guide this morning for a tour of Budapests fascinating sights and history. Well take the funicular to visit the Fishermans Bastion, Matthias Church and the Royal Castle on the Buda side, before crossing the Danube at the Margarete Bridge. In Pest, well see St Stephens Basilica, the Parliament buildings, City Park and Heroes Square. The afternoon is at leisure to explore further.

Day 9 Budapest

Explore the city independently today. Perhaps visit the bustling market hall, or relax and people watch with a coffee in Vrsmarty Square. The city takes on a different perspective at night, so weve arranged a wonderful cruise along the River Danube, regarded locally as the main thoroughfare.

  • Cruise on the Danube (evening)
