Rhine River Cruises

Having cascaded down from the Swiss mountains and through the UNESCO-listed Upper Middle Rhine, where fairytale forests line the banks, turreted castles peeking through the canopy, the Rhine River gently drifts to its final point, an inlet on the Dutch coast. It makes its way elegantly through Belgium and The Netherlands, steep landscapes giving way to flatlands of wonderful flower-filled meadows. Enjoy drifting past the lazy windmills and sleepy villages of the undiscovered Rhine, a waterway of tranquil charm and quiet majesty.

Flowing nonstop for nearly 800 miles, from its mountain source all the way to the North Sea, some of the Rhine's most spectacular sights include The Rhine Gorge, the city of Amsterdam, Lorelei Rock, and the attractive medieval town of Heidelberg.

Glacier Express & The Majestic Rhine

GEORGE PARKER

“A truly worthwhile, almost once in a lifetime experience. So varied, inclusive and that contrasts impossible to estimate. From the top of the mountain looking at the Matterhorn to the beauty of the Rhine Gorge, a first class ship/crew/tour guides and so well organized. Just go do it when you can

“Excellent 1 year old ship - Amadaeus Cara, excellent food, excellent service. Rhine gorge with castles very scenic. Start of Rhine in Basel less scenic as is the end from Koblenz to Amsterdam Tour of Amsterdam including cruise on the canals was excellent. Journey home took 12 hours. Great Rail Journeys has always been an excellent company to do business worth with excellent customer service and their bagageman service worked perfectly and is a real bonus.

Top of Europe & The Majestic Rhine

Mr David Dewdney

“We both really enjoyed our first cruise of any type. Our tour guide for the Jungfrau Express part of the trip, Ian Boyle, was the best we have experienced whilst travelling with your company. Organised and adaptable, he provided all the information we required and more; for example, we would have been unlikely to discover the boat tour of Strasbourg which we greatly enjoyed. We enjoyed our hotel in Strasbourg, being pleasingly large and situated near the station. Whilst we found some of the fittings in the hotel in Interlaken a little tired, we enjoyed the experience of eating on the 14th floor with its stunning views. The cruise ship was excellent and we can't speak too highly of the staff. The cabin was excellent and spacious and we enjoyed being able to unpack the suitcase, but being able to visit different places and will go on another river cruise in the future. The only negative was on the last day when we had to get up very early to travel on a coach to Brussels rather than a train from Amsterdam. Whilst we fully understand the problems of obtaining the train tickets, we were first told that this issue was a one-off, but later discovered it had been a problem all summer. Yet, this was not mentioned at all in the information pack received a fortnight before the trip.

Highlights of the River Rhine

From the Swiss mountains, the UNESCO-listed Upper Middle Rhine winds its way through Belgium and the Netherlands, eventually reaching the Dutch coast and feeding into the North Sea.

Our ships take us past hazy meadows, turreted castles and quaint windmills. We will stop at the charming city of Strasbourg, then make our way down to Koblenz, Cologne and eventually visiting the city of Amsterdam. Other highlights we will see on this river include the Rhine Gorge and Lorelei Rock.
