Travelling 766 miles from the Swiss Alps to Rotterdam in The Netherlands, the majestic River Rhine is truly one of Europe’s greatest international waterways.
Rhine River Cruises – Discover Castles, Vineyards and Historic Cities
Enshrined in the culture and literature of the six countries through which it passes, no other river in the world has so many old and famous cities on its banks, from Cologne to Koblenz, Speyer, Strasbourg and Basel. From the comfort of your first-class floating hotel, your Rhine River cruise will transport you effortlessly through the most enchanting landscapes that change constantly from the gentle and placid to the most sheer and dramatic.
The twists and turns of your cruise on this river are endlessly fascinating. One moment you’re gliding past dense forests or towering valley sides, crowned by the precarious ruins of castles that once extracted tolls from passing mariners. The next moment you’re passing steep vineyards where world-famous Riesling or Gewürztraminer wines are produced. Then there are the pretty waterfronts of riverside towns, delightful stone quaysides, spectacular locks and Oxbow lakes - long deserted by the river flow - that form wonderful havens for bird life.

"This was our second Riviera Rhine cruise, our experience was even better than first time."
"Superb accommodation, excellent food and attentive, friendly and helpful staff. The excursions were generally very good and we always went on the guided tours. The trip to the Alps was wonderful. We went with friends and we all agreed this was a wonderful holiday that left us with great memories and we thoroughly recommend it."
