PREMIUM - Mini Cruise on the Rhine 2027

As soon as you arrive on your Rhine Mini-Cruise, you’ll find yourself right in the heart of the Rhine lifestyle. Cologne welcomes you with its iconic cathedral, bustling streets, and friendly pub culture. The banks of the Rhine are teeming with life, and the energy between the old towns and modern skylines is infectious. Düsseldorf exudes style between Königsallee and MedienHafen, while Bonn offers a more tranquil atmosphere with Baroque elegance, a Beethoven tradition, and views of the Drachenfels. Three cities, one river, endless possibilities. In just a few days, you’ll create memories that could otherwise fill many weeks. Urban charm, Rhineland hospitality, and relaxing moments aboard the A-ROSA CLEA come together to create a vacation you’ll remember for a long time to come.

All cruises are international, meaning that all materials—such as menus, public address announcements, etc.—are in English. Similarly, tours are available with English-speaking guides, and the onboard staff speaks English (and usually German as well).

 

Düsseldorf - this metropolis on the Rhine has so much more to offer. The capital of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia captivates visitors with its long history, diverse array of cultural attractions (including museums and theaters), and unique architecture. And you’ll also find Fortuna here—in the form of a soccer club. You’re in luck! Discover Düsseldorf during a Rhine cruise and you’ll have plenty of stories to tell when you get home.

 

Cologne – welcome to Cologne! The magnificent Cologne Cathedral is one of Germany’s most famous landmarks. It towers proudly over the city and draws attention with its impressive architecture and ornate details. Along the riverfront, cozy cafés, lively beer gardens, and restaurants invite you to sit back and enjoy yourself, while the charming streets of the old town, with their traditional houses, boutiques, and breweries, evoke the atmosphere of centuries past.

 

Bonn - Frankfurt’s unique blend of modern skyscrapers housing major financial firms and an old town with historic buildings and half-timbered houses is one of a kind. And if you want to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city, you can take a stroll along the beautiful banks of the Main River.

Itinerary

Day	Place	Arrival	Departure
1	Cologne	-	18:00
		Welcome to Cologne! The typical friendliness that you find at every turn makes visitors feel at home right away. It’s not unusual to quickly get chatting to strangers and even go for a couple of glasses of Kölsch with them. The main landmark – Cologne Cathedral – watches over the whole city. It is the third-tallest church building in the world, at 157.38 metres. It might be a bit of a trek up to the top of the tower, but it’s worth it. You’ll be rewarded with an unforgettable view of the city and the Rhine spread out before you. 
1	Düsseldorf	21:30	-
		Whether you’re strolling along one of Germany’s leading luxury shopping streets, the ‘Kö’, enjoying an Altbier fresh from the tap in one of the old town’s more than 300 pubs or discovering one of the city’s many green spaces, Düsseldorf has almost everything you could wish for. Most of the city’s population seems to frequent the Uerige – the archetypical Düsseldorf brewery – even though the name of the establishment comes from a local word for ‘grumpy’. The Köbesse – as waiting staff are known here – are rather unfriendly, in keeping with tradition.

2	Bonn	21:00	-
		Bonn, located at the heart of North Rhine-Westphalia, used to be the capital of the Federal Republic of Germany. As a seat of government, it is where many important policies were made. Make the most of the excursions on your Rhine cruise to experience the best of this 2,000-year-old city with a very eventful past. Highlights include the house where Beethoven was born and the magnificent buildings that date back to the prince-electors’ era.
