Rhine & Moselle Explorations
Amsterdam Basel
Expand your Rhine River vacation with this 12-night
cruise that also travels along the picturesque Moselle River. Encounter a land
of history, legend and time-honored traditions as you sail amidst the mountainous
riverbanks where castles dot the panoramic landscapes and vineyards cling to
the steep terrain. Visit quaint towns of cobbled streets and half-timbered houses,
taste local vintages in welcoming taverns and tour the cultural metropolises
of Amsterdam, Basel and Cologne. And amidst a narrow passage of the Rhine Gorge,
see the mythical Lorelei Rock. From castle ruins to beautiful gardens, you'll
discover why the Rhineland region is a beloved destination for Europe's visitors.
