This morning the ship reaches Duernstein, one of the famous villages of the scenic Wachau area. The Beauties of the Wachau excursion includes a city walk of Duernstein, followed by a stop in Melk, where you will tour its magnificent Benedictine Abbey, one of Europe's largest monasteries. Afterwards, return to Weissenkirchen where you are invited to a "Gluehwein-Party" in the well-known Teisenhofer Hof. After enjoying an outstanding Christmas dinner, you may attend the Christmas Mass at the Cathedral of Duernstein.
