Overview

This Danube bike tour for families is specially designed with children and parents in mind. Featuring shorter daily cycling distances, mostly flat terrain, and safe, traffic-free bike paths, it's the perfect way to explore Austria’s stunning landscapes at a relaxed pace. You'll stay in a range of hand-picked family-friendly accommodations, from working farm stays where kids can help feed animals, to a luxury hotel with a pool and spa in the picturesque Wachau Valley. A ride on the famous Ferris wheel in Vienna’s Prater amusement park adds a touch of magic that children will never forget. This unforgettable family cycling holiday along the Danube River combines easy biking, scenic beauty, and cultural highlights, making it an ideal choice for families looking for an active European vacation. You may also book this tour as a guided option for an increased fee. The route follows dedicated bike paths, with terrain that's nearly flat or slightly downhill. The route is paved and almost traffic-free, following an old horse path. To shorten a day's riding, you can often board a train or barge along the way. Many trains have cars specifically for bicycles, and barges carry them with no problem either. On this tour, reasonable distances were chosen specifically with families in mind.
