Overview

The river cruise begins in Basel, Switzerland’s cultural capital. With its Gothic cathedral, world-class museums, and charming old town, the city offers a refined and international atmosphere.

The next stop is Breisach, nestled on the Upper Rhine. Known for its hilltop St. Stephen’s Cathedral, winding alleys, and local wine traditions, it is also a gateway to the Kaiserstuhl and Alsace regions.

In Strasbourg, French elegance and German heritage blend seamlessly. The magnificent cathedral, the picturesque “La Petite France” quarter, and the presence of European institutions make this city a highlight.

Mannheim surprises with its grid-style layout, the impressive baroque palace, and a lively art scene. Here, history and modern culture go hand in hand.

In Rüdesheim, guests enjoy the famous Drosselgasse, alive with music, wine, and cheer. A cable car ride to the Niederwald Monument offers sweeping views of the Rhine Valley.

Koblenz welcomes travelers at the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle, marked by the monumental “Deutsches Eck” and the mighty Ehrenbreitstein Fortress.

Next is Cologne, with its awe-inspiring cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its old town, vibrant museums, and Rhineland charm ensure memorable moments.

The journey concludes in Amsterdam, a city of canals, merchant houses, and world-renowned museums like the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum. Whether on a canal cruise or wandering through the Jordaan, Amsterdam provides the perfect finale to a rich and diverse river journey.
