We plan on getting a private transfer from Cesky Krumlov to Vienna during our trip in late May. We would like to visit the Wachau Valley on the way, including stops in Melk and Durnstein. For the journey between these two towns is the scenery better from a car or boat? It seems like most photos I see of sites along the way (Schonbuehl, Aggstein, etc.) are taken from the river. On the other hand, driving allows us to stop whenever we see something of interest. My husband is a photographer, so that is our main goal.
We also plan on stopping at Kreuzenstein Castle on the way to Vienna. Any other must-stops from CK to Vienna? I’m sure there are tons, so I guess the better question is any sites that would make for a quick stop!
CK Shuttle and Sebastian Tours have confirmed that they can do this private transfer for us with the stops outlined above. Any preference on either company - or another suggestion all together? We realize public transportation would be cheaper, but we will have luggage and prefer the convenience of having a private driver :)
