The Danube is the river of emperors. From the thermal baths and ruin bars of Budapest through Bratislava's compact old town, past the Wachau Valley's terraced vineyards, to Vienna's imperial grandeur — this is central Europe distilled into seven nights. Celebrity's new Compass and Seeker launch here in August 2027 with Skylight Infinite Balcony Suites, king-size beds in every cabin, and six dining venues. The Christmas Market sailings in November and December add mulled wine, candlelit squares, and Nuremberg's legendary Christkindlesmarkt.
