Melk, Austria Port Reviews

Melk Abbey overlooking the charming little town

Also not a "hike", but nice to walk instead of doing a bus even with a bit of rain. The abbey was interesting but I could easily have skipped this stop.

We went to the Abbey, and it was an enjoyable excursion

Went to Melk Abbey. They ran us through a few rooms that might have had 10 to 12 items in them. NO PICTURES allowed! Highlight was the library.

Melk Abbey tour and then walked back though the town.

Beautiful Abbey

We did not tour anything except the Melk Abbey, which is impressive and worth the time. A nice surprise extra was being able to listen to a choir rehearse for a wedding later that day.

Amazing city and the included Viking tour was excellent!

Day 11 on the Grand European River Cruise. Melk and Krems, Austria. Today was sunny but cold. We did the Melk Abby included excursion. It was really an exceptional outing. We were bussed up to the Abby for a guided tour. Afterwards, there was an option to walk back to rhe ship. If you walked back, you got to wander around the quaint village of Melk. It was about a 30 minute leisurely walk. The ship cruise down the Danube through the Wachau Valley. Great day to be on the Sun Deck. We docked in Krems and had free time to wander through the Christmas Market. Had a great day!
