What would Lower Bavaria and the Upper Palatinate be without the Danube? Correct: nothing. Due to the pandemic, the legendary river has had a few relatively quiet years. This is ending now. The Danube is no longer just flowing along, no, all sorts of things are happening on it again – whether you want it or not. You can fill yourself up with cheerful music on various party ships and enjoy the view of Regensburg or Passau, for example. If you look at the program announcements of some organizers, you could get scared and anxious if you were a river yourself.
The waters of Regensburg will be visited five times this summer by the party ship of a well-known public radio station alone, with a “mega dance floor” on several decks and a whole “fleet” of DJs. And you should turn on the “anticipation mode” now! In Passau you can buy yourself into a pirate boat party for just under 30 euros, with a treasure hunt. However, only from the age of 18. Or you can celebrate the nineties with “the one and only DJ Heinz”. Everything was better then. Or just straight onto the “techno steamer” where it will be “legendary”.
Very important: Everyone wants to “create memories”. It actually happens all by itself, one always thought. Something happens and the next day you still know it. Whereby it could be difficult to remember with the expected alcohol consumption. Maybe you not only forget the ship party, but also the last two Corona years, that wouldn’t be a bad deal.
But the settled Danube shipping industry is also hoping for guests again after two years of slack. In order to get the business going, a Passau shipping company came up with something very special and had the Lower Bavarian figurehead Til Schweiger redesign one of their boats. The actor told local press he was “into every detail, starting with the silverware.” So now you can finally cruise around on the Danube and chew and sit on Til Schweiger. According to the shipping company, Schweiger’s style on board is “inspired by Malibu’s casual lifestyle”. The Danube flows through ten countries, it will also carry a bit of California with composure.
