The Rhine is the chameleon of the world's rivers. Sometimes it seems wild, especially at the Lorelei rocks, other times it is vast, as when it flows into the Moselle at Koblenz. The romantic meadows of Rastatt invite picnics, and elsewhere people have tamed the river, turning it into an ornamental companion to elegant riverside promenades in cities like Basel. It is the perfect complement to Baroque and Gothic architecture and looks stunning in photographs.
All cruises are international, meaning that all materials such as menus, radio announcements, etc. are in English. The trips are also available with English-speaking guides and the staff on board speaks English (mostly German).
Mainz - Rhine meets Mainz, right between Lake Constance and the North Sea. This carnival city is known for its cheerfulness and hospitality. After a few moments, you will feel at home here. How about a walk along the picturesque banks of the Rhine? Or a visit to the Mainz Cathedral? It is home to one of the richest church facilities in the Christian world. Among the most important pieces are the burial tombs of several archbishops and altars. Another important building is the Electoral Palace. It is a prime example of German Renaissance architecture.
Strasbourg - The Roman commander Drusus founded Strasbourg as a military base in 12 BC. Today it is a thriving metropolis that has preserved many small half-timbered houses and a historic old town. Even a quick glance at Strasbourg Cathedral will tell you that you are standing in front of one of the most important of its kind in Europe and one of the largest sandstone buildings in the world.
Rüdesheim - The city describes its biggest attraction, the world-famous Drosselgasse, as "144 meters of joy of life". This center of Rhenish Romanticism once inspired poets and musicians - it was here that Bach composed his Symphony No. 3. Rüdesheim is the most famous place in the Rheingau and offers a wealth of cultural sights, including manor houses and fortifications. And no visit to the towns and countryside of this Rhine region would be complete without a taste of Rüdesheim coffee, which was invented here.

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. | |||
| 2 | Rüdesheim | 11:00 | 18:00 | |
|
In the Upper Middle Rhine Valley – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – the town of Rüdesheim marks the end of several old merchants’ routes. This strategically important point used to be protected by four castles. Picturesque Rüdesheim is known all around the world for its outstanding wines. Drosselgasse, an alleyway with half-timbered facades, is known as ‘The World’s Longest Wine Bar‘ and is reputed to be the most-visited tourist attraction in Germany after Cologne Cathedral. If you want to sample the local wines, head to the rustic wine taverns in the old town. | |||
| 3 | Speyer* | 08:00 | 19:00 | |
|
Welcome to the Upper Rhine. Speyer is over 2,000 years old and occupies a strategic location on a low terrace beside the river. It is Germany’s oldest planned medieval town. Speyer’s most prominent monument is its cathedral. As one of the country’s most important High Romanesque cathedrals, it is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You are sure to have an enjoyable day in Speyer. *alternatively Germersheim, depending on availability | |||
| 4 | Breisach | 14:00 | 23:59 | |
|
The little town of Breisach perches on a steep cliff along the Rhine, to the south-west of the Kaiserstuhl hills. Its main landmark is the cathedral, Münster Sankt Stephan. Set high above the town on a hill, the church overlooks the Rhine valley, housing an impressive collection of artworks. Geldermann, a well-known producer of sparkling wine, is also based here. A visit to Breisach is an absolute must during your Rhine cruise. | |||
| 5 | Strasbourg (Kehl) | 08:00 | 19:00 | |
|
Today your Rhine river cruise will call at Strasbourg – a centre of European policymaking. With its medieval half-timbered houses and its elegant city palaces, Strasbourg really stands out from the crowd. But the highlight is the cathedral. From its viewing platform, the city’s half-timbered houses appear as small as pieces from a model railway set. Enjoy your day in the French part of the Rhine region! | |||
| 6 | Mainz | 07:00 | 23:00 | |
|
Mainz is known for its cheerful atmosphere and its hospitality. Why not go for a stroll along the tranquil riverbank or enjoy a good glass of local wine while you’re there? You could also visit the city’s main landmark: Saint Martin’s Cathedral. It boasts one of the richest church interiors in the Christian world. 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. | |||
| 7 | Koblenz | 07:00 | 21:30 | |
|
Koblenz is where you’ll find Roman history, a high-tech research hub and a buzzing cultural scene all in one place. Don’t miss the delightful Kaiserin-Augusta-Anlagen, the southern part of the Rhine promenade. It was turned into a landscaped park with artistic historical monuments and sculptures between 1856 and 1861. If you fancy a treat, try Debbekooche. Originally eaten by those who couldn’t afford goose on Saint Martin’s Day, it is now considered a regional speciality and is traditionally served with apple sauce. Delicious! | |||
