It stopped me in my tracks. After all, the Iron Lady is not who you expect to find in a Hungarian market hall in 2019. Taken in the Eighties, the photograph had been stuck up by a market trader.</p> <p>His message for shoppers like me was: if my Hungarian chillies were good enough for her, then they’re good enough for you. I slipped him a handful of forint, bagged the peppers and eased my way past pyramids of dried paprika, spicy sausages and cans of goose liver and out through the neo-gothic gateway of <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190214103810/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/cruises/port-guides/budapest-cruise-port-guide/" target="_blank">Budapest’</a>s Great Market Hall.</p> <p>The 410ft long River Beatrice was in sight, docked handsomely at her pontoon in the shadow of the Liberty Bridge that straddles the <a href="/web/20190214103810/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/cruises/danube-river-cruises/" target="_blank">Danube</a>. I was to spend the next eight days on Uniworld’s Enchanted Danube cruise, travelling from <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190214103810/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/hungary/budapest/articles/budapest-travel-guide/" target="_blank">Budapest</a> to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190214103810/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/germany/munich/" target="_blank">Munich</a> via Bratislava and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190214103810/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/austria/" target="_blank">Austria’</a>s glorious Wachau Valley. Along the way, I’d explore the markets, music and – quite often – downright eccentric experiences that the towns and cities that hug Europe’s second-longest river have to offer.</p> <p>With the ship’s stern in sight, I began to cross the road, only to be stopped by my guide, Bridget. “Go slowly – we don’t have pedestrians here in Budapest, we have survivors,” she said, only half-joking.</p> <p>Safely aboard, I concluded that I was off to a good start. The morning had presented a plethora of local goodies: height-of-the-season sour cherries, the chance to sample langos – a flatbread smothered in sour cream, garlic and cheese – and some pungent pickled sweet garlic (probably an acquired taste).</p> <div class="articleBodyImage section"> <div class="article-body-image component " itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/ImageObject" data-frz-ancestor> <div class="component-content"> <figure> <span class="article-body-image-image-container"> <div class="lazy-image article-body-image-image" style="padding-top:63.85%;" data-js="LazyImage" data-src="/web/20190214103810oe_/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=480" data-srcset="/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=480 480w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=960 960w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=580 580w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=1160 1160w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=620 620w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=1240 1240w" data-sizes="100vw,(min-width: 480px) 480px,(min-width: 730px) 580px,(min-width: 1008px) 620px" data-alt="A bedroom on the River Beatrice"> <noscript> <img class="responsive article-body-image-image" src="/web/20190214103810im_/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-186275338_Handout_Titan-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=480" alt="A bedroom on the River Beatrice"> </noscript> </div> </span> <figcaption> <span itemprop="caption" class="article-body-image-caption">Lounge in luxury on board the River Beatrice</span> <span itemprop="copyrightHolder" class="article-body-image-copyright"> <span class="article-body-image-copyright-label">Credit:</span> Titan River Cruise </span> </figcaption> </figure> </div> </div> </div> <p>Dinner reflected our location wherever we found ourselves on the river, and that night chef Daniel Tricu focused on paprika, a Hungarian obsession. On the menu, there was hard-to-pronounce palacsinta (a crepe with paprika sauce), a Budapest-style paprika soup and roasted chicken breast with paprika. Tricu, who has worked for Uniworld for seven years, explained how food is at the forefront of modern-day river cruising:</p> <p>“These days it’s less about high-tech electronics and more about food – seasonality and quality ingredients in the kitchen. We feed people good food. If you feel good, you do more.”</p> <p>And what a lot there is to do, too. While I, with my culinary leanings, had opted for the half-day “do as the locals do” walking tour in Budapest, other passengers had explored the castle district in Buda, listened to a “concert for Budapest” piano recital in the lounge or cycled nine miles along the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190214103810/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/cruises/articles/what-is-the-ideal-length-for-a-danube-cruise/" target="_blank">Danube</a>. Over dinner passengers swapped tales of our day and sipped local wines. Tamas Kocsis, the cruise manager, told us a bit about the “amazing” local wines and explained that wine from this region is not exported much simply because “we Hungarians drink it all”.</p> <div class="articleBodyImage section"> <div class="article-body-image component " itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/ImageObject" data-frz-ancestor> <div class="component-content"> <figure> <span class="article-body-image-image-container"> <div class="lazy-image article-body-image-image" style="padding-top:63.85%;" data-js="LazyImage" data-src="/web/20190214103810oe_/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=480" data-srcset="/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=480 480w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=960 960w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=580 580w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=1160 1160w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=620 620w,/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=1240 1240w" data-sizes="100vw,(min-width: 480px) 480px,(min-width: 730px) 580px,(min-width: 1008px) 620px" data-alt=" The Wachau Valley cyclists"> <noscript> <img class="responsive article-body-image-image" src="/web/20190214103810im_/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/dam/Travel/Cruise/River/CROP-187118070_Uniworld-River-Cruises_SS-Maria-Theresa-River-Cruise.jpg?imwidth=480" alt=" The Wachau Valley cyclists"> </noscript> </div> </span> <figcaption> <span itemprop="caption" class="article-body-image-caption">Get up close to the Danube banks with a cycling excursion</span> <span itemprop="copyrightHolder" class="article-body-image-copyright"> <span class="article-body-image-copyright-label">Credit:</span> Uniworld </span> </figcaption> </figure> </div> </div> </div> <p>The ships carries 156 passengers – we were largely a mix of Britons, Americans and Australians, mixed in age and cruising experience. While a few signed up for the daily “gentle walkers” group designed for the less mobile, greater numbers arrived promptly in the lounge at 7am to join fitness instructor Denisa to bust some serious pre-breakfast yoga moves.</p> <p>Next stop: Bratislava, a city straddling both banks of the Danube. We zipped around its tiny historical centre, admiring its narrow streets lined with pastel-coloured buildings while trying to work off some of the food. Mostly, though, I was delighted that our local guide was blessed with the kind of resigned humour only found in Slavic lands: “You’ll notice that the old Soviet leader statues have come down now.

The next time he wanted to stay overnight he was too late – Mick Jagger was already in the presidential suite,” she told us, completely deadpan.</p> <p>The orchestra performed a perfect rendition of Mozart classics before ending with Strauss’s Blue Danube (what else?). We finished our night off with curried lobster and veal mignon back on board before I collapsed on my comfy bed and opened the doors to the French balcony to let the silent night air in.</p> <p>The following day, Regina led us to the legendary Café Central, a classic Viennese coffee house.

As part of our itinerary we were invited to a champagne reception at her nearby Artstetten Castle. Dressed in a smart navy dress and pearls – which once again brought the Iron Lady to mind – she cut a formidable figure as she stood before us, framed by oil paintings of the Habsburg-Lothringen dynasty to which she belongs.</p> <p>The princess’s pet, a wire-haired dachshund who answers to the name of Maurice, darted under a gilded chair as his owner spoke of her lineage. We all let out a collective gasp as she told us how her great grandfather, no other than Archduke Franz Ferdinand, is buried in the crypt, just a few floors down from where we were sat.</p> <p>“We all carry our ancestors’ rucksacks and history with us. Mine was written down, and perhaps yours wasn’t, but we must remember it all with curiosity,” the Princess said as her ancestors looked on seriously and Maurice took off with the scrap of a canapé.</p> <p>Then, with a grin and a cheer, the Princess instructed us to “raise a glass to our different rucksacks!” And, more than a little rapt with wonder, we all did.</p> <p><b>Titan Travel, in
