WHAT YOU'LL EXPERIENCE ON THE CRUISE:

You experience the mighty Danube as it meanders through the "Great Loop" and enjoy the gorgeous landscape of the legendary Wachau with its castles and fortresses.

Vienna, rich in architecture and history, must be experienced. Sights like St. Stephen’s Cathedral and the city hall are easy to reach during a wonderful sightseeing tour by bike. A stroll through the Naschmarkt (famous food market) is a wonderful cultural and culinary adventure. You can also relax at any of the cozy coffee houses or at a typical traditional Viennese wine tavern in the suburbs."

DETAILED SCHEDULE: 

 

  *PRE-TRIP MUNICH ADD-ON* (Aug 24-26):  

---OPTIONAL---

 

To allow people as much freedom as possible, we are providing a schedule of planned group activities for our time in Munich.  Since people will be coming from all over and may want to be flexible on their arrival and departure dates, we felt this would be the easiest way to accommodate everyone. Feel free to join us on as many of these activities as you would like or to opt out as you wish.  There is no added cost to our tour price.  You would be expected to cover your own costs for food, transportation, museum entrances, etc. a la carte.  

HOUSING:  


There are numerous search engines to find places to stay such as hotels.com, booking.comKayak.com, Google Travel, etc.

You may also consider looking at VRBO.com or AirBnB.com to see about renting a private room or pension in the area.  


If you are looking for a roommate or have any other questions about lodging that you would like to post to the group, or if you have any suggestions about tickets, places to stay, or great deals you found that you would like to share, please feel free use our Worldwide Dance Adventures Facebook page for postings and discussions.


Ari & Jae will be based at the Ostbahnhof Station (Munich East Train Station, Orleanspl. 14, 81667 München, Germany).  If you would like to find a room or space walking distance from the Ostbahnhof, that will make it easier for us to rendezvous.  But it's very easy to get around by train, bus, or rail, so anywhere you would like to stay can work fairly easily.


GETTING TO MUNICH FROM THE AIRPORT:


It’s very easy to get to Munich from the Munich airport using public transportation.  You’ll exit the Munich airport building and walk across the very large covered plaza to the U-Bahn/S-Bahn station on the other side.  Go downstairs and buy a ticket from the S-Bahn ticket counter or from the automatic machines near the tracks (it’s the AirportPLUS-Ticket).  You can buy a one way ticket (11.20€ ) or a day pass (which might be a good option if you’re planning to use the U-Bahn or S-Bahn several more times that day) .

The S1 and S8 S-Bahn lines connect the airport to the Munich city center at 10-minute intervals. The S1 travels via the west of the city and the S8 via the east. The trip to the main railway station at the city center takes approx. 40 minutes and costs 11.20€ 

Busses and shuttles are also other options available.  Busses also take around 40 min and cost €11.  Munich also has Uber (costs vary, but will be more expensive) and you can reserve your ride up to 30 days in advance.


GETTING AROUND MUNICH:  


Cheap day tickets and public transportation travel cards offer great savings on ticket prices for travel on U and S-Bahn trains, buses, and trams in Munich (München) in Bavaria.  You can read more about public transportation tickets options HERE.


There is also a Munich City Pass and a Munich Card (Details HERE).  The Munich City Pass (starts at 47 Euros/day) is the flexible all-inclusive ticket for your city trip. With the City Pass you are not only granted free admission to Munich's top sights but also free travel with the local public transport. The Munich Card (starts at 13.90 Euros/day) offers flexibility as well by combining a ticket for the public transport with discounts to many attractions.

FAQ's:

Where does the ship leave from and how do I get there?  The ship leaves from the port of Passau, Germany.  You would need to arrange your own travel to the port which is very accessible from Munich.  There are many busses, trains, shuttles and taxi's available throughout the region.   

Who is the organizer and administrator for this cruise?  This cruise is being organized by Jae Gregory and Ari Levitt at "Worldwide Dance Adventures" and administrated by the travel professionals at "Trip Site."  

  • For questions related to either the cruise and/or your travel, please email Jae at danceadventures@comcast.net
      
  • For questions regarding the dance workshops, please contact Ari at arilevitt@hotmail.com

If I am single and would like to share a room, how can I find other participants who would like to do the same?   If you are interested in connecting with other single participants who would be interested in sharing a cabin, please indicate this on your registration form.  Alternatively, you can direct any specific questions or requests to Jae and she will be more than happy to help arrange room sharing for you. You can reach Jae at danceadventures@comcast.net.

When do I need to have my down payment submitted by?   A deposit of $500 is due with your reservation of the cruise. Full payment is due 45 days later. Final payment due date is 90 days before travel (May 29, 2022).

What is included in the price?  What additional charges/fee's should I anticipate?  The price includes your cruise, port taxes, dance workshops, all onboard gratuities, bike rental and insurance, dance instruction & activities, tour leaders & organizers. It does not include bike helmet, E-bike upgrade, transportation, airport transfer, optional onboard amenities or incidentals.

Are prices guaranteed?  Yes, but only through May 29th, 2022, or until the number of group cabins allotted to us by the ship are sold out.  After that, the pricing cannot be guaranteed, and will fluctuate based on the ships current room charges and availability.  Please check with Jae to confirm the latest status and pricing for rooms.

What is the refund policy?    Once cabins are confirmed, the cancellation policy takes affect. 

  • Up to 84 days prior to departure: 25% of tour price

*If your country of origin or destination country enforces a government mandated travel restriction or quarantine regulation within 4 weeks of your travel date, you would be eligible for free rebooking, or full refund (minus €20/person administration fee).

A travel insurance policy is highly recommended for all travelers!

What kinds of dance classes will be offered?  Specific workshops topics will be decided closer to the sailing date (and on the ship) in order to best tailor the lessons to the group's abilities and interests and to the available space.  Styles will be selected from among swing, latin (salsa, cha cha, merengue, rhumba), ballroom (waltz, foxtrot, etc), night club 2-step, 1-step, blues, and fusion.  We can be fairly flexible with how all of this is set up.

Will there be opportunities for private lessons?  Yes, these can be arranged individually with Ari onboard the ship or beforehand by email.  

What level will the dance classes be geared toward and what will be their focus.  Group classes will be geared toward the adv-beginner/intermediate level dancer (ie: you should be comfortable with beginning level dance steps, connection, and framework, and be ready to move forward from there).  If you still consider yourself a novice dancer, not to worry.  You have plenty of time between now and August to sign up for some local partner dance classes and get ramped up! (I would recommend classes in swing, blues, salsa, latin, or ballroom, although just about any kind of social partner dance would be fine).  

The class format will be very much geared toward fun, playful social partner dancing, which is to say that we will not be focussing on performance choreography, competition styling, or line-dancing.  In each workshop, we'll start by laying the groundwork for strong partnering foundations, imparting a clear understanding of how connection, framework, and energy can be utilized to create playful movement and improvisations, and reviewing basic steps and combinations. On top of this we build a wide-ranging repertoire of fun moves and variations.

What is the dress code for the ship?  Casual attire is perfectly fine for the cruise.  Informal attire might be nice for an evening or two if you wish...  

  • Informal attire:  For men this might include shirt, jacket, and slacks; and a summer dress, or slacks & blouse for women.  
  • Casual attire: This is fairly flexible.

What travel documents will I need?  As per all international travel, you will need to bring a current passport from your country of citizenship.  A driver's license is also recommended.  No special visas or further documentation will be required for US citizens in these ports-of-call.  You will need proof of COVID vaccination for European travel.  Check with you airline for any requirements they might have.

Do I need any special immunizations for international travel?  Covid Vaccination is required.  You should also make sure that your regular shots are up-to-date.  

 

If I have any questions, who should I contact?  

  • For questions related to either the cruise and/or your travel, please contact Jae (with World Wide Dance Adventures) at danceadventures@comcast.net.
