The Wachau Valley - Austria’s most famous wine region along the Danube River - is just an hour away from Vienna.

On this day trip from Vienna, you'll catch the train to Krems and then start the bike ride on flat paths surrounded by terraced vineyards.  After lunch, spend the afternoon learning about Austria’s wine and history while meeting new friends.  Along the way, visit charming Austrian villages before arriving back in Krems for the return to Vienna by train at the end of the day.

It’s a day you will remember long after your travels end!
