This morning the ship arrives in Linz, the second largest city in Austria. Your walking tour will take you along the Landstrasse to the city’s main square. You will also see St. Mary’s Cathedral, the Marian Column, Landestheatre and St. Martin’s, the oldest church in Austria. This afternoon you have the choice of three different excursions. The first option is a visit to the scenic “Salzkammergut” (Lake District) region, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you will have an opportunity to explore the historic town of Gmunden. The second option is an excursion to the Czech town of Cesky Krumlov, a wonderfully preserved medieval town nestled in the hills just over the Austrian-Czech border. The third choice is an excursion to Salzburg, where you will have a walking tour of the city’s historic center, famous as the setting for the “Sound of Music” and as the birthplace of Mozart. Enjoy free time here on your own before returning to the ship. Meals B,L,D
