Danube River Cruises for Solo Travelers

Explore

The Danube is one of the most popular rivers for a river cruise, and for good reason. It flows through no less than 10 countries, highlighting the diverse landscapes, cultures and architecture of Europe.

The Danube flows through four national capital cities - Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade – which is more than any other river in the world, so there’s no better way to throw yourself into the heart of Europe. Experience the best of Austria, Slovakia and Hungary on most of our river cruises, with some also extending into Germany, Romania, Serbia and Bulgaria.


Visit cities and towns along its banks, sail through some seriously scenic landscapes, and enjoy first class service onboard a floating boutique hotel, all with extra special touches just for solo travellers.

  • Hand-picked hotels in the best locations
  • Breakfast each morning, plus select other meals
