I could not hear what the guide was saying over the motor noise. I could not see any notable points of interest from the boat.

Ordering the tickets online and exchanging them at the ticket office was smooth. No problems at all. The cruise itself was very nice. It was nice that we had the option to order food from the menu in person, even though we did not choose the lunch cruise option. The main problem that we had with the cruise was all of the people smoking cigarettes the entire 3+ hours. Even the ships crew were smoking the entire time. Frankly, it was gross. The main outdoor area (partially covered) smelled awful and the smoking never let up. As an asthmatic it was problematic. But also the other people in my group who do not have breathing problems found it to be overwhelming and nasty. People even smoked on the upper deck. The only place without smoke was the inside room, which was nice, but sort of defeats the purpose of a river cruise to be stuck indors. I suggest offering smoke-free cruises! Even one per day. I guarantee people will buy tickets. All that smoke is so bad for people's health.

Very good service . As expected there were no delays . Wonderful experience on board . The Danube view is beautiful and the overall experience is very very good. I think that since the weather in Vienna is beautiful there could be more open areas for the guests.Holger

The stay in the two locks took too much time. In contrast to Tour B, Tour A was not worthwhile.
A glimpse of Vienna's urban evolution
Embark on a mesmerizing journey with the Grand Danube River Cruise, offering a unique perspective of Vienna's evolution. As your ship cruises past the Urania observatory, be captivated by Vienna's commitment to science and the stars. Make your way through the 'green heart' of Vienna, the Prater area, an oasis of tranquility amidst the bustling city. A highlight is a grain silo converted into a hotel, a testament to Vienna's innovative spirit. The journey then takes you past the Danube Island, a haven for nature lovers, before reaching the Reichsbrücke station.
Architectural marvels and culinary delights on the Danube
Brace yourself for 'modern Vienna', a skyline boasting architectural marvels like the Danube Tower and Millennium Tower. As you glide through the Nussdorf lock system into the Danube Canal, you'll witness Vienna's historical charm. Keep an eye out for the Hundertwasser District Heating Plant in Spittelau, a fascinating fusion of art and utility. The cruise offers various ticket options, including a cruise with a 2-course meal, refreshments, or a local delicacy, the Schnitzel.
