Rhine River Cruises
Rhine River sailings are among the most popular river cruises in
Europe. Some itineraries focus solely on the Rhine, while others include
additional waterways in Germany, Austria, Hungary or the Netherlands.
Many sailings start or end in Amsterdam at the northern end of the
river. It's a city of narrow gabled homes and winding canals, and home to sites
like Anne Frank's house and a Van Gogh museum. Basel, Switzerland, is often the
southern terminus of Rhine sailings, and it boasts an ornate town hall and some
very fine art museums.
The Middle Rhine is often thought to be the most scenic part of
the river. This is where ships pass Lorelei Rock, where legend says an
irresistible siren once lured sailors to their deaths. In Cologne, see the
soaring twin steeples of the Gothic cathedral, and in Rudesheim, walk along the
pedestrian-only Drosselgasse, lined with restaurants, shops and wine gardens.
Passengers also travel to Heidelberg, one of Europe's best-preserved medieval
cities and home to a Gothic castle and centuries-old university.
Late November and December sailings, known as Christmas market
cruises, are quite popular. Passengers spend time browsing the festive outdoor
markets that sell handcrafted toys and ornaments, mulled wine, grilled sausages
and gingerbread.
Sightseeing guides show you the top attractions and share their
knowledge of the local history and culture. Plus, these trips are easy to
budget, because so much is included in one price that you pay up front.
