Jewels of the Rhine
Immerse yourself in alluring history, awe-inspiring architecture, and the natural wonders of the world on this 7-night river cruise through Switzerland, Germany, France, and the Netherlands aboard Emerald Cruises’ Emerald Destiny.
Begin your adventure in Basel and set out for Breisach, a lovely German town resting amongst rolling vineyards. Visit Strasbourg’s wine cellars and half-timbered homes in “La Petite France,” and hike beneath the Black Forest evergreen canopy of Grimm’s fairy tales. Lace up your hiking boots for a tour of Heidelberg Castle’s Renaissance ruins and enjoy the refreshing white wines of the Moselle Valley’s terraced vineyards. Experience the allure of Deutsches Eck in Koblenz, where the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle rivers is framed by a mesmerizing panorama of vineyards, forests, and four majestic mountain ranges. Snap photos of a UNESCO World Heritage Site–Cologne’s Gothic twin-spired cathedral–and take in the city’s medieval history. Spend a full day in Amsterdam and cruise the canals fronted by stately Dutch Golden Age mansions.
