River Cruises to Spitz, Austria

Spitz sits on a curve of the Danube in the heart of the Wachau Valley, surrounded by steep hills carved into terraces of vines. Walk with a vintner through rows of Grüner Veltliner and Riesling. Perhaps you’ll learn how the valley’s soil and sunlight shape each harvest, then sample the wines in a family cellar. In the village, cobblestone streets lead past pastel houses and the Gothic church of St. Mauritius, while the hilltop ruins of Hinterhaus Castle look down on the river below. Orchards heavy with apricots in summer and seasonal festivals fill the town with color and music. With Celebrity River Cruises, Spitz offers an intimate taste of Austria’s river life, where wine, history, and landscape come together in perfect harmony.
