River cruise ship sailing through the Rhine Gorge.

Longer Journeys and Lasting Memories


If fairy tales are your fancy and you love to get away in romantic atmospheres as you explore charming destinations, the Rhine and Moselle rivers are perfect for you!  Cruising between Amsterdam and Basel, ten-night immersive river cruises take you to spectacular destinations throughout the Netherlands, France, Germany, and Switzerland, with sailings from summer through autumn and even during the famous Christmas Markets in the winter.  With additional days to explore these captivating regions, here are a few reasons you may want to spend a little extra time on your river cruise.


See it All


On longer river cruises, you will experience both the upper and lower stretches of the Rhine River, bookending your cruise through the Moselle River Valley.  Witness the splendor of the Rhine Gorge, hike through the Black Forest (famous for tales such as "Hansel and Gretel"), and immerse yourself in medieval towns lost to the flow of time such as Bernkastel and Lahnstein, Germany.


Savor it All


From the rich tastes of traditional Rudesheimer coffee to the world famous Reislings that floursh along the Moselle, a plethora of wonderful flavors are waiting for you along these whimsical rivers.  Not only do you have more opportunities to immerse yourself in these delightful specialties on tasting tours, but with three or four extra nights onboard, you will also get to savor more of your luxury river cruise's award-winning regional cuisine prepared by experienced chefs.


Experience it All


 With more time to immerse yourself in the journey, you will have even more opportunities to experience everything your vacation has to offer, both on board and on shore.  You have more changes to pedal through the countrysides and cities such as Cochem, Cologne, and Strasbourg on guided bike tours.  You even have more time to relax on board, enjoying your stateroom or suite's balcony as you drink in the impressive river valley views or just indulging in a rejuvenating massage.  You can enjoy all these experiences and more along the enchanting Rhine and Moselle Rivers.
