“The boat ride to Walhalla was very nice. I would warn people to bring a hat and sunscreen since the top deck has no shade. Also to bring a jacket and umbrella in case of rain. There is a recorded audio broadcast on the boat in both German and English. I am giving this tour a rating of 4 and not a 5 because the instruction about the ticket were very confusing and contradictory. One comment said to get a physical voucher but when we clicked on the link for further info the program just went in a loop. Another instruction said to just show up with the electronic ticket.…”

Two-hour Danube cruise from Regensburg to Walhalla on a Swarovski crystal ship, with narration and time to visit Donaustauf.

“Alexandra eas filled with information, funny and happy to be flexible. We had told her that we had a short tour from our cruise and she was more than happy to ask us if we had heard about the things she was telling us and if we had, she pivoted to something else. We learned so much more than we ever expected to about Regensburg and had bought yummy sausage to top it off. I would definitely recommend this tour if you want to get a sense of the whole city and not just the touristy area”
