Riverside Luxury Cruises now offering Cycling Cruises on the Danube in 2027

Riverside Luxury Cruises is introducing three Riverside Active cycling sailings aboard Riverside Mozart in 2027 for travellers who want to explore the Danube on two wheels.

The first, a seven-night journey from Passau to Vienna, July 22 to July 29, is followed by a seven-night Vienna to Budapest journey, July 29 to Aug. 5.

Travellers can book either sailing or combine the two for a 14-night Passau to Budapest journey, July 22 to Aug. 5, with up to 405 miles of cycling along the Danube Cycle Path.

Each day brings a different stretch of the Danube Cycle Path, with routes ranging from 18 to 62 miles. Cyclists can borrow an e-bike from Riverside Mozart’s fleet, or bring their own, with onboard storage available. All rides are supported by an expert cycling guide and safety vehicle.

The rides are as varied as the river itself. Cyclists follow the Danube through the Wachau Valley, tackle the Schlögen Loop — a dramatic 180-degree bend in the river — and ride through the Danube Bend toward Visegrád while taking in the sights of vineyards, villages and historic sites along the way. In the Wachau, for example, cyclists can ride from Melk to Dürnstein, while in other ports they can choose to explore by bike or join a Riverside Choice excursion instead.

At the end of each ride, Riverside Mozart is waiting. There’s no luggage to repack or hotel to find — just a spacious suite, gourmet dining and Riverside’s attentive service waiting at the end of each day.

The full 14-night itinerary also includes a VIP, after-hours evening at Vienna’s Belvedere Palace, with a private musical performance and an opportunity to view Klimt’s The Kiss without the usual crowds.

Pricing on the seven-night sailings starts at $5,081 USD per person based on double occupancy, and pricing on the 14-night sailing starts at $10,161 USD, double
