Castles Along the Rhine

Best Time to Take This Trip
March, May, July, September, November
Multi-day Experience
The experience is self-contained.

From Basel to Amsterdam, spend 8 Days on the S.S. Antoinette, River Queen, or River Empress Cruise along the Rhine—Germany on one side, France on the other. Discover Alsace, with French and German heritage giving it food and winemaking traditions that goes back to the Romans. Marvel at castles and get an insider’s look at one of the only castles on the Rhine that has never been destroyed, Marksburg Castle. Visit historic cities, including ancient Cologne and Strasbourg; stroll through the fairytale town of Rüdesheim; and taste delightful white wines in the villages where the grapes are grown.

Insider Tip

Sign up for the "Let's Go Bike the Castles" excursion to explore the beautiful stretch of Middle Rhine between Boppard and Koblenz. You'll pass the romantic timber-frame houses of Spay, the sweeping vineyards of Bopparder Hamm, the famous "German Corner" where the Rhine and Moselle converge, lush Lahn riverscapes and, of course, some fairytale-esque castles.
