Joanna Lumley’s Danube
Holiday Types

Uncover the heart of Europe with Joanna Lumley

Flowing from Germany's Black Forest to Romania's Black Sea coast, the beautiful Danube passes through 10 countries, telling the story of Europe on its journey.

Joanna Lumley returns to our screens as she embarks on an unforgettable adventure along the Danube. Joanna shines her inimitable style on the three-part series as she travels from the river's source, passing some of our most-loved destinations enroute.

From the forests of Bavaria to the majestic imperial city of Vienna, Joanna showcases the culture and history of the locations she visits. The Danube cuts through the middle of Budapest, and she marvels at the landmarks on a boat journey before heading into the Buda Hills to ride the charming Children's Railway - two of our favourite things to do in the Hungarian capital.

If you've ever dreamed of uncovering the heart and soul of Europe, join us on our award-winning itineraries to explore the treasures of Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Hungary. Tune in to ITV1 on Fridays at 9pm to be inspired by Joanna's journey and the incredible landscapes she passes through.
