Empires Of The Lower Danube (2028)

Arrive at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport. If you have arranged a Uniworld arrival transfer, you will be greeted by a Uniworld representative and transferred to the ship.

Belgrade, the modern-day capital of Serbia, is one of Europe’s oldest cities, dating back some 7,000 years. Signs of its tumultuous history are visible everywhere, juxtaposed with the city’s vibrant modern-day present.

Head ashore to explore a Paleolithic site and an extraordinarily well-preserved medieval fortress. All along the way, history lines the banks of the river. Keep an eye out for Trajan’s Plaque, which the ancient Romans erected to commemorate the road they anchored in the steep cliffs above the water, and Golubac Castle, built in the 14th century and attacked successively by the Serbs, Magyars, and Turks.

Vidin is a port town on the Danube that once played an important role in medieval Bulgarian politics, as the great fortress Baba Vida attests. It’s your base for an unusual excursion today—a visit to the fascinating Belogradchik rock formations. Alternatively, indulge in a wine tasting in a unique setting.

Select one of two ways to explore the Romanian countryside, home to rustic traditions and vineyards shaped by a generous allotment of annual sunshine and a unique terroir.

This ancient city has been uniquely shaped by its position on the lush Danube Delta environment. Home to over 300 bird species and a diverse array of mammals, reptiles, and fish, the Danube Delta is the largest and most well-preserved river delta in Europe.

Named for Roman Emperor Constantine, Constanța’s long history is one of shifting Greek, Roman, and Ottoman rule. This historic atmosphere pairs beautifully with the city's breezy, coastal location and sun-soaked charm.

This morning, you’ll disembark the ship in Constanța and transfer to Bucharest. Tonight, you’ll relax in the comfort of a luxury hotel located in the heart of the city, Romania’s capital and its cultural and economic center.

Check out of your hotel this morning. If you have arranged a Uniworld departure transfer, you will be transferred to Bucharest Henri Coandă International Airport for your flight home.
