Heading to Europe’s Rhine and Moselle Rivers with AmaWaterways

Two Rivers, One Unforgettable Experience

Much like the sailors who were drawn to the beauty of the folklore siren Lorelei, travelers find the powerful allure of the Rhine River and its breathtaking tributary, the Moselle, hard to resist. With so many grand cities, charming villages and breathtaking landscapes stretching along their banks, the best way to experience it all is by cruising with award-winning AmaWaterways.

Scenic Sailing at its Finest

Along the Rhine River, guests glide past more than 40 fairytale castles strung like pearls along the banks of Germany’s breathtaking Rhine Gorge. Within the sharp turns of the Moselle Valley, steep vineyards produce some of the world’s finest wines – and the most dramatic scenery. In spring or summer, guests can enjoy the views with a chilled glass of locally-sourced Riesling, or watch the vibrant palette of autumn colors while warming up with rich Rüdesheimer coffee.

Unique and Exclusive Included Experiences

But what would a river cruise with AmaWaterways be without a variety of included excursions and exclusive experiences to immerse guests in the history and culture on shore? On the Rhine and Moselle rivers, guests have the chance to explore up to four countries (Switzerland, Germany, France and the Netherlands) on guided hikes and bike rides, Special Interest Tours such as a visit to Rüdesheim’s mechanical musical instrument museum or a mustard tasting at a historic mill in Cochem, and city tours for all activity levels, from gentle walkers to the most active of guests.

Dock in enchanting Lahnstein to discover Lahneck Castle as part of an exclusive experience on AmaWaterways’ Enchanting Rhine cruise, or hike to the 9^th-century ruins of Bernkastel’s Landshut Castle on their Rhine & Moselle Splendorsitinerary.
