I took my daughter on a bucket list European river cruise
For The Sun, Tracey and her 20-year-old daughter Lola swapped backpacking for Viking's eight-day Danube Waltz — four countries, six cities and rather more Austrian schnapps than either of them intended.
Tracey and daughter Lola boarded the Viking Vilhjalm in Passau and sailed down the Danube through Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary — dodging Old Delhi rickshaws for something a little more civilised. From baroque abbeys in the Wachau Valley to Bratislava's UFO Bridge and Budapest's ruin bars, the piece pitched Viking's £1,895pp Danube Waltz as multi-generational travel that actually works — with enough wine, schnitzel and Strauss to keep both mother and Gen-Z daughter happy.
