Magna on the Danube
11 Day Land Tour & River Cruise Including an Optional Golf Package with AmaWaterways
7 Night Cruise from Budapest, Hungary to Vilshofen, Germany
For the Kiwi golfer who demands a holiday as sharp as their short game, the Magna on the Danube itinerary is the ultimate grand tour. This isn't just about escaping the winter chill; it’s a high-caliber sweep across four iconic European nations, Hungary, Slovakia, Austria, and Germany, all from the comfort of the luxurious, double-width AmaMagna.
There is an undeniable magic to a journey where the fairways change as dramatically as the borders. One morning you are navigating the pristine Slovakian countryside, and the next you are standing in the serene alpine foothills of Austria, tracking a drive down the fairway of Golf Club Adamstal, the top-ranked course in the country.
Through AmaWaterways' Concierge Golf Program, the logistics of travelling with your gear completely melt away. From private luxury transfers to flawless course access, every detail is handled with effortless sophistication, leaving you free to focus entirely on the game, the fine wine, and the spectacular Old-World backdrops.
*7-night cruise is also available in the reverse direction from Vilshofen, Germany, to Budapest, Hungary. An optional pre-cruise land package of 2 nights in Budapest, Hungary, and a post-cruise of 3 nights in Prague, Czech Republic are also available. *Czech beer tasting may take place on day 2 or 3 of the itinerary.
