A Tauck Exclusive at Krumlov Castle A popular setting for society events, the Winter Riding School at Krumlov Castle welcomes you for a Tauck Exclusive lunch in the Czech city of Cesky Krumlov; built in 1746 in Viennese Rococo style, the Winter Riding School is part of the largest castle complex in the country outside of Prague. You can explore the halls, courtyards, Rococo gardens, towers, and numerous palatial manor houses and never find the end of it all. Marvel at its architectural mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque evolved over hundreds of years, and its gilded theatre – the best preserved in Europe, with scenery, mechanicals, and more.


vineyards. Many of the wineries have cozy taverns (heurigers) attached to them where regional delicacies are served, Viennese music is played, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Indulge in the pleasures of a heuriger lunch in the woods like a native Viennese, then head back to the city to board your riverboat. You are invited to join your captain this evening for a welcome reception and dinner with entertainment by Slovak musicians as the ship sails for Bratislava. Meals BLD


4.  BRATISLAVA, SLOVAKIA Wake up in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. This morning you have a choice of sightseeing options. One possibility is to take a walking tour of the city’s cobblestoned, vehicle-free historic


center. Visit sites that include the 13th-century Old Town Hall; Baroque Habsburg-era palaces; the Opera House; the Slovak Philharmonic Hall; Michael’s Gate; and St. Martin’s Cathedral, the coronation site of the Kings of Hungary. You’ll go inside the Primate’s Palace and view the historic British Royal Tapestry exhibit. Then enjoy free time to explore colorful Bratislava at your own pace. Or if seeing a castle in the country appeals more, spend the morning on an excursion to the countryside, dotted with farms, villages, and vineyards, for a wine tasting and a visit to Cerveny Kamen Castle. Back aboard ship this afternoon, learn about the traditional way the locals make pottery and ceramics, a tradition that dates from the 14th century. This evening your riverboat sails back to Austria.
