After the castle tour (included), we travel by bus to the Rhine River where we will board our ship.  Then we enjoy a cruise through the most scenic part of the Rhine valley, with explanations in English of the historic sites and castles.

Once we are ashore, our bus drives along the picturesque Rhine shore to our restaurant.  There we will enjoy the feast (included) prepared especially for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.
Following lunch, we’ll visit Rüdesheim, the best known town along the Rhine, where we will walk through the world-famous “Drosselgass”.
