My husband and I are very interested in traveling down the Danube but we are cruise ship type of people. What we wanted was a trip with some part of the trip from Vienna to Budapest on the river. Does anyone know of a fairly inexpensive way to cruise down the river? I read the Rick Steves suggestion about doing part of the river via bikes (rented) but we'd also like to cruise down part of it too. Thanks

There are many ship and bike cruses that include the bike. They do not look cheap: donau schiff und fahrrad

You could possibly put something together yourself, but would take some work. donau radweg fahrradverleih
