Step one

Choose your sailing

It's a fly-cruise, so the price moves with the airport you fly from — and the cheapest airport isn't the same one every week. Choose your airport, then a date to see the cabins on board.

About this cruise

Rhine

This versatile cruise starts in Düsseldorf, the lively Rhine metropolis with culture, fashion and Rhenish charm. From there, the route leads via Duisburg and the Ruhr region to Herne and Münster, where history and modern joie de vivre meet. Via Minden and Wolfsburg, the route continues eastwards along peaceful waterways. In Magdeburg, the impressive waterway intersection is impressive, before the journey reaches the historic heart of Prussia in Brandenburg and Potsdam. The end in Berlin Spandau combines big city flair and water idyll - an impressive river journey across Germany that harmoniously combines culture, nature and history.
