I spotted an add for a low priced cruise on the Rhine and 3 other rivers. It was advertised at half price and had the benefit of a drinks package. The lead in price was for a non standard cabin with restricted view. It was Cabin No 1 on the mps Amsterdam operated by River Cruise Line. Fortunately when I... More

We went up the river twice - once by boat and once following it up on the one and down on the one side by car. I would recommend doing both. Both times I just became aware of the depth of scenery and history there is to see in this area. On the boat you can relax and take in... More

Spectacular views from the river with castles dotted everywhere. A really worthwhile trip on which you see lots of vine yards and also have the chance to visit many pretty towns and villages. I would strongly recommend a trip along the Rhine if the like scenery

I, along with other tourmates with Top Deck, boarded the river boat, and took a ride along it soaking up the fresh air and scenery. Amazing, felt like I was back in time save for the boat we were on. Saw so many different buildings and castles, I am amazed at how well they are preserved. Hell, we even stayed... More

We did the Koblenz to Rudesheim leg on the Rhine aboard the Amadeus riverboat on a lovely day in mid-october . We spent the biggest part of the day on the upper deck admiring this World Heritage site and we found it hard to breakaway for lunch . Both sides of the river are worth looking at and I think...

Bery nice when you consider the fact that the North Rhine Westphalia is so crowded, but not that amazing when it boils down to it all. Perhaps I've been spoilt with the countryside in the UK?

Go for a Rhine Cruise and definitely you'll open your mouth in awe of the beautiful scenic views with the sweet castles & colorful architecture houses. A romantic experience and a must when you're in Germany or Rhine river area.

Because the train and the highway share the riverbank, map out your route with care, as things get squished. I suggest this: Stay in Rüdesheim (Don't worry. The tourists mostly come from Frankfurt now, just for the day, and by 6 pm it's just a small town on the river.), but, and this is vital, away from the river, as... More

We have all heard of "Castles on the Rhine" and the best way to see them is on a cruise down the Rhine River (or up) between Koblenz and Mainz. This is called the "Middle Rhine" and it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for a reason – some 40 castles once stood along this valley, and at least the... More
