Nuremberg, Germany

You'll arrive in Nuremberg, Bavaria's second-largest city, this morning. Boasting an Old Town protected by an ancient city wall, this city is dominated by one of the most significant imperial forts of the Holy Roman Empire. The 12th-century Imperial Castle was the preferred residence of German kings. Behind its charming facade, Nuremberg also has a turbulent history. During WWII, the city was favored by the Nazis for party rallies. The boycotts of Jewish businesses began here, as did the 'Nuremberg Laws' that denied Jewish people German citizenship. By 1945, the city was reduced to rubble, including large sections of the Imperial Castle and Old Town. Allied powers - the US, Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union - held the Nuremberg Trials here between 1945 and 1946, where Nazi Germany leaders were tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity. ...

Regensburg is also fringed by the Bavarian Forest, home to hundreds of kilometers of hiking trails as well as deer, wild boar, fox, and otter. Set on the confluence of three rivers in Bavaria, Regensburg is a delight to explore on a walking tour. Your expert local guide will show you the Old Stone Bridge, the Church of St James, and the Porta Praetoria all while sharing the customs and traditions of the region during the festive period. Tonight, you'll ring in the New Year. Take an easy stroll into the city to celebrate like a local or stay onboard your Scenic Space-Ship and enjoy the festivities with newfound friends. ...

Passau, Germany

This morning, you'll arrive in Passau, one of the notable stops on your journey along the famed Route of Emperors and Kings. Set on the confluence of the Danube, Inn, and Ilz rivers, Passau has been an important trading city since medieval times, particularly for salt, commonly known as 'white gold'. Each river is distinct in color and some days you can clearly see the green, blue, and black hues where the waters meet. At the center of the Baroque city, the 13th-century Italianate Old Town is packed with tight laneways tunnels and archways, including an "Artist's Mile" where old buildings are occupied by artist studios, workshops, and galleries. Join your local guide on a walking tour, admiring the brightly colored buildings that line the waterways. Visit St. Stephen's Cathedral: originally built in the year 450, the church proudly stood in Passau's Old Town until a devastating fire ripped through it in 1662. It was rebuilt in its current form with an Italian-style exterior complete with a Baroque stucco interior, and nowadays houses the world's largest Catholic church organ, which boasts 17,974 pipes and 233 registers. ...
