As big fans of Crystal Ocean cruises we decided to take a river cruise on one of their newest ships the Crystal Ravel.  Our “Danube Dreams and Discoveries” cruise started in Vienna and took in the ports of Esztergom, Budapest, Bratislava, Melk, Linz, Krems and Wachau Valley back to Vienna.

Athletically-inclined, thrill-seeking and generally inquisitive travellers have numerous options ashore this fall, offered with Crystal Cruises’ luxury cruises throughout New England and Eastern Canada. Dozens of Crystal Adventures have been specially crafted to highlight the expansive landscapes and spectacular foliage
