German City Explorer
Set off on an all-inclusive 9-night river cruise aboard Spirit of the Moselle visiting a succession of cultural cities along the banks of the Rhine and Main in Germany.
Spend an afternoon in the city of Bonn, where an included walking tour will reveal sights such as the Romanesque Minster Cathedral and the University of Bonn.
Next, cruise to Cologne to spend a full day exploring the city independently. Cologne’s main attraction is the twin-spired Gothic cathedral which dominates the skyline. Sail overnight to Koblenz, a historic city overlooked by the vast Ehrenbreitstein Fortress, then sail overnight to Frankfurt. Enjoy an included coach tour of the city before getting up close on foot. In the central square, Römerberg, you can see the medieval Römer complex with their distinctive stepped gables.
After a full day in Frankfurt, you spend a day cruising the Main towards Würzburg. Here, join an included guided walking tour of the Residence Palace, followed by a walking tour through the historic city centre of Würzburg.
Continuing along the Main River, Spirit of the Moselle will negotiate a number of locks, which enable vessels to navigate the differences in height along the river. Enjoy an afternoon in Miltenberg, where the old town, enclosed within ancient walls and gates, is home to picturesque cobblestone streets of half-timbered houses and old wine taverns.
Finally, sail overnight to Mainz, with its medieval market squares and Romanesque sandstone cathedral.
