Are you doing the Viking cruise? I did that from Regensburg to Budapest in 2018. It was tremendous fun and we made some friends, who live in England, that we still communicate with and actually met up with when we went to London in 2019. I didn't come across any shops, although I wasn't really looking. It was very cool to see the bridge at Regensburg, makes understanding why it was so important in 1809 obvious. While you're in Vienna the museum of military history is well worth the time as are the Imperial crypts. |

I would omit shopping in favour of historical sites. If you just need a shop for minis though there should be one in each major city. If you are out for local specialities that is another question that I have to pass. BTW: Please make sure on short notice that the river tour actually happens. At the current drought in Europe the commercial traffic on the Rhine is already limited, and who knows what happens the next months. Good luck, and have fun! |

Puster has a good point. We had to take a bus between Regensburg and Passau and change ships because of low water levels (this was in late September). |
