Discover the magic of the Rhine for yourself! With the best view of the Rhine, it's no wonder the Lorelei stands high on a cliff. The Middle Rhine in particular is a feast for the eyes with its castles, gorges, wine-growing villages and more. The "Rhine on Fire" event is a spectacular end to the cruise. You can look forward to a stunning fireworks display over the Rhine for an unforgettable experience.
All cruises are international, meaning that all materials such as the ship's newspaper, menus, radio announcements, etc. are in English. Likewise, excursions are available with English-speaking guides, and the on-board staff speaks English (usually German as well).
Discover Koblenz during a cruise on the Rhine. Its history dates back more than 2,000 years, making it one of Germany's oldest cities - and one of its most picturesque, with a wealth of sights and cultural attractions. Admire the palaces, stately homes, grand townhouses, narrow streets and romantic corners of Koblenz. And watch as the ship passes close to the famous Cape Deutsches Eck.
In the Upper Middle Rhine Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the town of Rüdesheim, where several old merchant roads end. This strategically important point used to be protected by four castles. The picturesque Rüdesheim is known throughout the world for its excellent wines. Be sure to stroll through the charming streets of the old town.
Frankfurt - "Hier bin ich Mensch, hier darf ich's sein" ("Here I am a man, here I dare to be a man"). This quote by Frankfurt's most famous son - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - actually comes from his play Faust (and Bayard Taylor's English translation), but it's also a very apt way to describe Goethe's hometown. The combination of modern skyscrapers housing major financial companies and an old town with historic buildings and half-timbered houses is unique. And if you want to take a break from the hustle and bustle, you can take a leisurely stroll along the beautiful banks of the Main.

Itinerary
| Day | Place | Arrival | Departure | |
| 1 | Cologne | - | 18:00 | |
|
We will set off on our exciting Rhine cruise from here, heading for the northern or the southern Rhine. But you shouldn’t miss out on the opportunity to explore this cathedral city, with its wealth of monuments and attractions. The best way is to arrive the day before your cruise departs, so that you can relax – or simply extend your stay in Cologne after the cruise has ended. | |||
| 2 | Cochem | 11:00 | 21:30 | |
|
Cochem, on the bank of the Moselle, is another port of call on your Rhine cruise, which will take you onto the Moselle. The entire Moselle region around Cochem is a real sight to behold. The town’s landmark is undoubtedly the famous Reichsburg, a splendid castle that towers above the river. But did you know that the West German government had a secret bunker built here for its federal bank? Strange, but true! And you’ll have the opportunity to visit it during your river cruise. | |||
| 3 | Boppard | 06:00 | 14:00 | |
|
The imperial town of Boppard is located close to the narrow horseshoe bend of the Rhine. In the 4th century the Romans replaced their citadel by a stone fortress with 28 towers, which however was soon overrun by Germanic tribes. The former free imperial city was subjugated in 1327 by the elector Balduin von Trier. Balduin immediately had the electoral Trier castle built, thereby forcing the uncooperative inhabitants to accept his rule. | |||
| 4 | Koblenz | 06:30 | 21:30 | |
|
Discover Koblenz during your Rhine cruise. Its history dates back over 2,000 years, making it one of Germany’s oldest cities – and one of its most picturesque, with a wealth of sights and cultural attractions. Marvel at Koblenz’s palaces, stately homes, grand townhouses, narrow lanes and romantic corners. And watch as our A-ROSA ship sails close to the famous Deutsches Eck headland. | |||
| 5 | Mainz | 07:00 | 22:00 | |
|
Mainz bleibt Mainz (or ‘Mainz is always Mainz’) is more than a carnival motto. It is an expression of the easy-going way of life that makes the locals proud of their city, makes it easy for non-locals to settle in and helps visitors to enjoy their stay here. With 2,000 years of history, Mainz is not just one of the oldest cities in Germany – it is also a place where you can see history come alive wherever you turn. | |||
| 6 | Frankfurt | 04:00 | 22:00 | |
|
Welcome to Goethe’s birthplace! Here’s another historical fact while we’re at it: this is where the first German national assembly met in 1848. Today, the metropolis on the Main is home to the headquarters of major banks and is also one of Germany’s most important centres of business and commerce. Frankfurt is also known for its many futuristic-looking high-rises. You’ll get a closer view of them when your Rhine cruise takes you along the Main river. | |||
| 7 | Rüdesheim | 06:00 | 18:00 | |
|
The town describes its biggest attraction, the world-famous Drosselgasse, as ‘144 metres of joie de vivre’. This centre of Rhine Romanticism once inspired poets and musicians – it was here that Brahms composed his Symphony No. 3. Rüdesheim is the best-known spot in the Rheingau and has plenty of cultural attractions, including stately homes and fortifications. And no visit to the towns and countryside of this area of the Rhine would be complete without a Rüdesheim coffee, which was invented here. | |||

|
We will set off on our exciting Rhine cruise from here, heading for the northern or the southern Rhine. But you shouldn’t miss out on the opportunity to explore this cathedral city, with its wealth of monuments and attractions.
