Durnstein and the Wachau Valley

Leaving Vienna, we sailed up the river to Durstein, a small village along the river.  This is the heart of the Wachau Valley wine region.  After touring the small town, we sampled several of the fine wines of the region before sailing up through the valley to visit Salzburg.
