Passau is one of the absolute highlights of every Danube river cruise. Depending on which direction
the cruise takes, Passau is usually the first or last port of call in Germany. The Old Town is in easy
walking distance from the moorings. Cruise ships are able to rely on top-notch and state-of-the-art
infrastructure to make your stay as convenient as possible.
There are several possibilities for getting to know the many faces of the Three Rivers City of Passau.
Especially for tourist groups, there is a comprehensive offer. With the Sales & Cruise Guide we want
to provide an overview for you and help you with your planning.
For any further information you may need, we would be more than pleased if you contact us!
