We did the Christmas Market River cruise from Passau (should have been Regensburg, but water problems on the river) to Vienna last year .... it was fantastic!!!! We did a pre-cruise in Prague, and stayed a few days extra in Vienna, which allowed us to do a day tour to Budapest!

 

Have fun you all!! And don't forget to collect all the mugs from the Gluhwein stalls at each market!!

thanks for the heads up, but it was a link for information about the cruise we're going on only and not meant to sell or solicite anything

A question for someone that has cruised riverboats before.Do they have a

lifeboat drill on riverboats like they do on the large cruise liners.This is our first riverboat cruise and am curious

Nope. They don't have lifeboats. If it sinks you can walk ashore or just stand on the Sun Deck until someone comes to get you!

Thanks Clarence,

I guess it was a silly question but since I don't know anything about cruising on rivers I wasn't aware that the rivers are shallow enough that you could walk ashore. When I think of a river I think more on the line of the Delaware River here.
