Highlights of the Rhine Cruise

As if all the sights have gathered together for a photo op on the riverbank.

From Cologne to Rüdesheim, Germersheim (Speyer), Strasbourg (Kehl), Mainz, Loreley Valley, Koblenz, Nijmegen, Rotterdam, Harbor tour Rotterdam and Emmerich to Cologne.

We’ll never know whether a fair maiden with blonde hair and a beguiling song was really responsible for the demise of so many Rhine sailors on Lorelei rock, or whether they simply became distracted by the unique landscape. This makes the opportunity all the more enjoyable to explore at your leisure the rugged rocks, melancholy castles and quaint little winemaking villages along this 67-km stretch of the Middle Rhine Valley (a UNESCO World Heritage Site). Wonderful Rotterdam’s defining feature is its port, the largest in Europe. And as for the tall, sophisticated, exciting architecture, there’s only one possible response: take out your camera.

Rotterdam Panorama bei Nacht

Rotterdam

Netherland's second largest city. The home of the continent's biggest sea port is a thriving metropolis that doesn’t scrimp on modern buildings or international flair. Over the past 20 years, a number of impressive new skyscrapers have sprung up – and there’s no sign of this trend stopping yet.

Flusskreuzfahrt nach Koblenz

Koblenz

Discover Koblenz during your Rhine cruise. Its history dates back over 2,000 years, making it one of Germany’s oldest cities – and one of its most picturesque, with a wealth of sights and cultural attractions. Marvel at Koblenz's palaces, stately homes, grand townhouses, narrow lanes and romantic corners. And watch as our A-ROSA ship sails close to the famous Deutsches Eck headland.

Rüdesheim mit A-ROSA entdecken

Rüdesheim

Nestled at the foot of the Niederwald, Rüdesheim am Rhine is famous for its wines. Like many places in the Middle Rhine Valley, it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Tourists come to the town in droves to visit its many museums and interesting buildings. Just under 10,000 people live in Rüdesheim, and they are particularly proud of the area’s castles, which include the Brömserburg, the Boosenburg and Ehrenfels Castle. Thanks to a variety of regular concerts and events, there’s always something to do in Rüdesheim.

Here is where we embark on our exciting Rhine cruise. You should definitely get to know the city of Cologne with its many monuments and attractions. The best way to do this is to arrive one day before your cruise or simply extend your stay after the cruise.

A-ROSA Sena in Köln

The town describes its biggest attraction, the world-famous Drosselgasse, as ‘144 metres of joie de vivre’. This centre of Rhine Romanticism once inspired poets and musicians – it was here that Brahms composed his Symphony No. 3. Rüdesheim is the best-known spot in the Rheingau and has plenty of cultural attractions, including stately homes and fortifications. And no visit to the towns and countryside of this area of the Rhine would be complete without a Rüdesheim coffee, which was invented here.

 Weinplantage Rüdesheim

Trips

Let the Winzerexpress take you on a tour through vineyards and right into the centre of Rüdesheim. Here, the little lanes are too narrow for our trusty vehicle, so you’ll explore the old town on foot. You’ll find one of Germany’s most well-known streets here: Drosselgasse. Lined with wine taverns and bars with outdoor seating, it offers 144 metres of pure enjoyment. You’ll have the opportunity to stop off here to learn how the traditional coffee speciality ‘Rüdesheim coffee’ is made – and you’ll be able to try it for yourself, of course.

Rotterdam is the Netherlands’ main centre of architecture – over the last 20 years an impressive collection of skyscrapers has transformed its skyline. The 46-metre-high Witte Huis was the first skyscraper in Europe, and there’s no denying that the city’s famous Cube Houses are unique too.

The interior of the market hall boasts an 11,000-square-metre artwork made up of panels decorated with images of fruit and vegetables. Another thing that makes the building unique is that, as well as housing a market, shops, eateries and a car park, it also has residential units.

Rotterdam Ausflug Altstadt mit A-ROSA

The small beautiful town of Emmerich on the lower Lower Rhine gives you a nice time out on land during your cruise. Here you can take a stroll along the promenade and enjoy the magnificent view of the Rhine while discovering the "Golden Gate Bridge of the Lower Rhine", a suspension bridge spanning over the Rhine, which, just like its role model, can be seen from afar in vibrant red. Definitely worth taking a souvenir photo!
