7 nights onboard Spirit of the Rhine

Sights and Scenery of the Rhine

This leisurely all-inclusive river cruise in 2025 combines time to relax on board Spirit of the Rhine with time to explore the cultural gems of Central Europe. Visit the wine town of Rüdesheim, famed for its Drosselgasse, a narrow cobbled street overlooked by half-timbered houses and wine taverns. While here, enjoy an included excursion to Siegfried’s Museum of Mechanical Music. Then, spending another relaxing morning as you cruise through the UNESCO-listed scenery of the Middle Rhine Gorge en route to Koblenz. The town, where the Rhine and Moselle rivers meet, is overlooked by 19th-century Ehrenbreitstein Fortress and Spirit of the Rhine will moor nearby for an afternoon and morning. Then, continue your river cruise to Cologne, arriving in the evening. A full day in the city gives you time to see some of the Cologne’s highlights, such as the twin-spired gothic cathedral, on an included walking tour which also ventures along the cobbled streets and up hill to the Alter Markt. Sail overnight to Boppard, with its Roman remains and medieval fortifications, and enjoy an included wine tasting on board before cruising to Mainz, known for its medieval market squares and St Stephen’s church, which features stained glass windows by artist Marc Chagall.
