About this cruise
Rhine
The journey begins in Düsseldorf, where modern architecture and the lively old town welcome visitors. Along the Rhine, the cruise heads to Duisburg, home to Europe’s largest inland port. Here, industrial structures meet green parks and riverbanks. Via the Rhine-Herne Canal, the ship reaches Herne Ost, in the Ruhr area, where former coal mines and cultural projects contrast with natural floodplains. In Münster, Westphalia reveals its charm. The cathedral, historic market square, and cycle-friendly avenues highlight a city surrounded by meadows and rivers. Further north lies Minden, with its impressive waterway cross where the Weser meets the Mittelland Canal. The surrounding landscape features rolling hills and wide fields. Wolfsburg combines technology and nature, with the Autostadt, castle, and forests along the canal. At Rothensee, the giant lock and canal bridges mark a technical wonder before arriving in Burg bei Magdeburg, where towers and the Elbe floodplains dominate. In Brandenburg an der Havel, medieval history blends with a lakescape rich in forests and waterways. The journey continues to Potsdam, famous for Sanssouci Palace and elegant parks in a unique cultural landscape. Finally, the cruise ends in Berlin Spandau, where history and modernity meet along the Havel. The Spandau Citadel and green surroundings provide the perfect finale to a diverse voyage through cities, landscapes, and waterways.
