Danube River: Cruisers ship out and shape up

April 9, 2008

Cruise customers often complain about gaining weight. That isn't likely to be a problem on Bike & Cruise Tours' new European sailing trip along the Danube River.

Passengers spend the day bicycling from one town to another -- about 25 miles a day -- while the vessel cruises to the next port. You have time to explore sites and enjoy a picnic lunch along the way. Then it's back on board your floating hotel.

The Sept. 6-14 trip costs $3,275 a person for seven nights in an outside cabin on the MV Mozart, one night in a Passau, Germany, hotel, five cycling tours in Germany, Austria, Hungary and the Slovak Republic, entrance fees to attractions and meals. Airfare to Munich and shipboard gratuities are extra.
