Rhine Cruise to Switzerland
Glide past the pretty towns along the Rhine River, experience the Rhine Gorge, explore Alsace’s Strasbourg, see the Black Forest and the breathtaking Alpine scenery on a mountain rail journey into the Bernese Oberland.
Overview
On your journey through the Rhine valley, you'll visit historic Koblenz where we have time to explore the old town at the confluence of both the Rhine and Moselle rivers. Next, you'll continue through the Rhine Gorge where the valley walls tower above your head and onto Rüdesheim, where you'll enjoy another evening complemented with an excellent dinner on board. The cruise continues south, stopping in medieval Speyer with its stunning Romanesque Basilica that dominates this pretty town. The next day you'll arrive at the city of Strasbourg where you'll enjoy a walking tour of the old town. Continuing, you'll drive through the typical rolling tree-clad massif of the Black Forest onto the charming town of Freiburg. Your final destination is Basel, from where you'll venture to stunning Lucerne and into the Bernese Oberland for unforgettable mountain vistas.
This Swiss river cruise is ideal for travellers looking for a relaxing way to see stunning alpine views and visit historic European towns.
