Cruising to Regensburg, Germany captures the authentic charm of the enchanting Danube River. While in Regensburg, you'll have time to tour the splendid old town, where beautiful churches, exquisitely designed homes of the wealthy and one of Germany's oldest bridges can be seen. The Old Town Hall and the Porta Praetoria (gates to an ancient Roman fort built in 179 A.D.) are sure to impress. Or, ride a bike to Walhalla to learn about the neo-Classical white marble temple. If you have time, make sure to try Bavarian gastronomy - beer, sausage, and pretzels. If you travel in November or December, you'll see the vibrant Christmas Markets, vestiges of old central European culture kept alive today.

Highlights of Regensburg As your leisurely Danube River cruise floats through scenic Germany, a day in Regensburg is sure to highlight the journey, with activities like:
A tour of the Old Town Hall.
Visiting Porta Praetoria, the last remaining piece of a 2nd century Roman camp.
Sampling the regional snacks and cuisine that have made Bavaria famous, like sausage, pretzels, and of course, beer!
Biking to Walhalla, a marble temple built in the Neoclassical style and inspired by the Greek Parthenon.
The holiday of a lifetime. The company is Alaksa-owned and thhat makes a big difference to the experineces you get i.e. meet genuine First Nations tribes people. The amount of wildlife was beyond my expectation, and seeing everything on sucha small, intimate boat made it even more spoecial and unique.

It was an outstanding, up-close, educational vacation of nature, culture, history, animals and geology! It was everything they promised! Binoculars were plentiful on the boat, but I'm glad I brought my own. Food was excellent. Rooms had black-out shades. Pack/wear multiple layers of clothing (I carried a small backpack when off the ship). Crew were delightful and very accommodating! Remember to jump FEET FIRST first when taking the optional polar plunge! Spend as much time outdoors as you are able and ENJOY!!!

Excellent travel advice and service
This is my second experience working with Adventure Life. I’m sold. Jess Heuermann is an experienced traveler and provides a lot of useful information when planning a trip. These are the questions I like to ask at the outset - What’s it like to go here, there, what would you suggest, what do people report, can we add any additional side trips? Jess took the time to answer my questions and seek additional information to share with me. Petchie Colina is outstanding in helping with travel logistics and final preparations. Adventure Life has excellent guides and offers private guides and small group adventures. We enjoyed the opportunity to talk with the guides and drivers to learn more about their countries, cultures and histories. A highlight was having the guides pick local restaurants where we could share meals together. Highly recommend.

Our six-day tour in Iceland went smoothly with one exception. We had asked for two rooms each night. Somehow we were booked with one room with three beds. It could not be fixed at the first hotel in Reykjavik because the hotel was fully booked. Once informed of the problem, however, Adventure Life rebooked for two rooms for the remainder of the trip. As an 85-year-old traveler, I appreciated that one could participate at different physical levels at many of the stops. Iceland is a great place to visit but on the expensive side.
