In eastern Croatia lies the charming city of Vukovar, Croatia's largest river port situated at the confluence of the Vuka and the Danube Rivers. You will see monuments to Croatia's struggle for independence, like Ovcara Memorial & Cemetery, on the Yugoslav Civil War, or take a wine-tasting excursion to Ilok.

Vukovar is visited on cruises of the lower (eastern) Danube River and some of our longest river cruises like the journey from Prague to Bucharest over 22 days!
