A Journey of Castles, Wine & Moselle Beauty

A Journey of Castles, Wine & Moselle Beauty

About This Cruise

The cruise begins in Koblenz, where the Rhine and Moselle meet at the Deutsches Eck. Overlooking the city is Ehrenbreitstein Fortress, while the old town charms with narrow lanes and squares. The ship then heads upriver along the Moselle, through one of Europe’s most enchanting river landscapes.

Gentle curves, vineyards, and slate slopes accompany the journey to Traben-Trarbach, once a global wine trade hub. Art Nouveau villas, wine cellars, and Belle Époque flair define this elegant town.

Further upstream, Bernkastel awaits with half-timbered houses around its medieval market square. Above rises the ruined Castle Landshut, while local Riesling wines embody the essence of the Moselle.

The ship returns downstream to Cochem, where the fairytale Reichsburg towers over the valley. The old town, full of winding streets, cafés, and taverns, invites exploration, surrounded by sunlit vineyards.

At Treis-Karden, guests discover a quieter side of the Moselle. Historic churches and an authentic winegrowing atmosphere give this town its special charm.

Finally, back in Koblenz, the journey ends. Steep vineyards, romantic towns, and castle silhouettes make this Moselle cruise an unforgettable experience.

Itinerary

Germany

Koblenz

Koblenz captivates visitors with its unique location at the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle rivers. The first stop on any visit to the city should therefore be the so-called “Deutsches Eck” with its imposing Kaiser Wilhelm Monument. Since 2002, it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site “Upper Middle Rhine Valley.” A visit to Ehrenbreitstein Fortress offers a beautiful view of Koblenz and its two rivers. Perched 120 meters above the Rhine, this 16th-century fortification is the second-largest surviving fortress in Europe. Even the ride up in a cable car gondola is spectacular.

Germany

Traben-Trarbach

The small wine-growing town of Traben-Trarbach is situated right on the Moselle in a beautiful valley. Surrounded by numerous vineyards, it is one of the most beautiful places in the region—romantic, quaint, and modern. In addition to wine tastings and a boat ride on the Moselle, you can take a hike to Grevenburg, a ruin high up on the mountain, and the Buddha Museum should also be on your itinerary. A medieval market square graces the center of the small town, and the Brückentor gate is another of its historic landmarks.

Bernkastel-Kues

Numerous half-timbered houses adorn the town of Bernkastel, situated right on the Moselle. Perched above the town is a castle with a restaurant, and the old town is home to numerous small boutiques and shops. The Moselle is perfect for an unforgettable boat cruise, as well as for kayaking or canoeing. Bernkastel is known for its ideal location on the Moselle and its quaint old town. Together with Kues, it forms a twin town—on the left and right banks of the Moselle—with numerous restaurants and bars.

Germany

Cochem

Cochem is Germany’s smallest county seat and is located in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. Cochem lies on the Moselle River and is famous for its winegrowing. The town offers a picturesque view of the vineyards. Even from a distance, the Reichsburg Castle is clearly visible and serves as the town’s landmark. The town is popular not only with bowling clubs and families. The cobblestone-paved old town offers a pleasant stroll and invites visitors to linger by the fountain.

Germany

Treis-Karden

The picturesque little town of Treis-Karden is located right on the Moselle River in one of Germany’s most beautiful regions. It’s particularly well-known among vacationers and hikers for its proximity to Eltz Castle. However, if you don’t have enough time for a hike, there are plenty of exciting sights to discover right within the town: For example, you can visit the Maria Engelport Monastery and attend Mass or even concerts. You can also explore the chapel or the so-called Lourdes Grotto there. Furthermore, it’s worth visiting St. Castor Church—known as the Mosel Cathedral—as well as the fountain of the same name, complete with its sculpture.
