Regensburg’s exceptionally intact old town offers a close look at the urban fabric of medieval Germany. Its churches, merchant houses and riverside setting make this a distinctive sightseeing stop rather than a pause for refreshments.

The discussion connects urban habitats with the effects of climate change on bee health. This MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® experience supports work aligned with the United Nations goal of protecting life on land.

Explore Prague with a Local Specialist, walking through Prague Castle’s courtyards to visit St Vitus Cathedral. Admire its Gothic architecture within the castle complex, then cross the Vltava to the Old Town Square and its 15th-century Astronomical Clock.

The route brings together the city’s seat of power and its historic civic heart. Cathedral spires, cobbled streets and the clock’s intricate face reveal why Prague’s medieval townscape remains so compelling.

Walk through Bratislava’s city centre, taking in its historic squares and the landmark Michael’s Tower. Look for the mix of Gothic, Baroque and Art Deco details that gives the Slovak capital’s compact centre its varied character.

The Hofburg was the Habsburgs’ winter residence, while the broad Ringstrasse replaced the city walls in the 19th century. Together, these sights reveal the scale and ambition of Vienna’s imperial past.

See Melk Abbey above the Danube and learn about its royal connections. The Benedictine abbey stands on a rocky outcrop, making its imposing silhouette a memorable sight in the Wachau region.

Melk’s monastic history reaches back centuries, and its prominent riverside position speaks to the abbey’s importance in Austria’s past. This is a viewing stop, not an advertised visit inside the abbey.
