Overview
A deluxe vessel for touring along the Danube, the Carissima offers an inviting and comfortable atmosphere on board that will make your journey unforgettable!
The first thing you will experience when boarding this vessel is the inviting atmosphere on board. Cycling by day, you will experience the various cultures along the Danube, back on board, in the restaurant, you will experience a true culinary excursion through the region while enjoying fantastic views! In the Panorama Lounge, where the bar is located, you can enjoy a glass of wine with your friends and fellow cyclists. Comfortable lounge chairs on deck will invite you to linger and savor. Afterall, even when actively vacationing, you have to take the time to relax. The spa with sauna and whirlpool is wonderful after a day of cycling and the pool on the sun deck (June through August) allows for a refreshing swim as the river passes by.
