Boats, beaches, and the parts of Passau you only see from the water. Ferry rides, sunset cruises, snorkel runs, and the occasional sailing day for travellers who measure good cities by their coastline.
1Reliable ground transportation from the cruise port The modern traveler will appreciate the importance of being able to seamlessly travel from the cruise port. If you’re traveling multiple times a year to far flung lands, you’ll be well aware of the individual and unique pitfalls and difficulties that can await your journeys from the cruise port. With a reliable cruise port transfer, you can experience the same high levels of service wherever you are - a familiar feeling in often unfamiliar environments. Your driver will greet you in the arrival terminal of cruise port, ready to help you with your luggage to your waiting vehicle before delivering you smoothly and directly to your waiting accommodation in the city.
2Travel in comfort from Passau to Prague in a private, air-conditioned vehicle with an English-speaking driver. This door-to-door transfer is ideal for guests finishing a Danube River cruise and looking for a smooth, reliable, stress-free journey to Prague. Enjoy free Wi-Fi, bottled water, luggage assistance, and flexible pickup from your Passau cruise ship terminal or hotel. The direct drive takes about 3 hours through scenic countryside, with the option to turn your transfer into a memorable travel day by adding a sightseeing stop in Český Krumlov, one of the most beautiful historic towns in Central Europe. Relax, avoid train changes or taxi stress, and arrive directly at your Prague hotel or apartment safely, comfortably, and on time.

On the relaxed four-hour boat trip from Passau to Engelhartszell you will recharge your batteries, and crossing the lock at the Jochenstein Danube power station is the highlight: a short break to pause and simply let the power of the water carry you.
4Your safety is our crew’s biggest priority. Before your journey even begins, your driver completely disinfects the vehicle and places free hand sanitizer in the back seat. One of our professionally-trained drivers will greet you with a name sign name lead traveler, will offer to assist with luggage and guide you to your vehicle. Your driver will open and close the door for you, and for your safety, guests are only permitted to ride in the back seat. We’re here to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling healthy, happy, and ready to take on the day.
5Welcome to the city of three rivers. This is where the rivers Inn and Ilz join the mighty Danube, which makes it ideal as the start of the famous river cruises. At the German border to Austria, this city is a direct connection to many European countries and capitals such as Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade. Thanks to its perfect location by the waterways, it has been an important center of trade since the Middle Ages. For most of its history, Passau was an independent Prince Bishopric state between Bavaria, Austria and Bohemia (Czech Republic), and as a result thereof, has spawned a unique cultural blend of its own. The old town shares with the world many examples of gothic and baroque style , as well as a myriad of traditional shops to seduce visitors from all over. You will see: • Royal Promenade • St. Stephen’s Cathedral • Veste Oberhaus • Old City Hall
6On the Barefoot Boat you will see Passau from a completely new perspective. On this approximately 75-minute tour you will explore the three-river city up close directly from the water - completely new perspectives will open up. Because the "Bavarian Venice" shows its most beautiful side from the river. And a short detour to the idyllic Bavarian-Austrian Danube Valley is also on the program. The ship itself is worth a visit in itself: The Barefoot Boat is a collaboration with the actor and entrepreneur Til Schweiger, who has put his unmistakable stamp on the ship in his "Barefoot" style. There is a natural ambience on board, lots of wood, linen and wicker ensure casual comfort. From the spacious sun deck you have a wonderful panoramic view.
