for Stuttgart

For a boat trip on the Neckar from Heidelberg see www.rnf-schifffahrt.de . There are various possible cruises of different lengths. A few years ago we did an enjoyable several hour cruise upstream and return from Heidelberg going only through one lock, the Heidelberg one. You will pass a few castles and the view of Heidelberg from the river is nice. You may also be able to get off one boat and return by another later in the day.

2. Re: Neckar river cruise

I just went to this website and it looks like the last river cruise is at 3:30. This would be too early for us. We would definitely need something, later.

Also, according to the website, the round trip to Neckargermund is 2 hours, while the one to Neckarsteinach is 3 hours. Is Neckargermund okay? With the kids, even a one hour cruise would be sufficient.

Is there another company that has later and shorter cruises?

Thanks!
