May 5-12 2027Welcome to Germany and the city of Mainz. Set on the Rhine River, it’s known for its rich Roman heritage, wine growing, university and striking cathedral. This afternoon, board your 5-star Scenic Space-Ship, which will be your home for the next eight days.
One of Germany’s oldest cities, Koblenz was founded by the Romans more than 2,000 years ago and is brimming with history. It sits where the Rhine and Moselle rivers meet and promises a mélange of French and German cultures. Koblenz is filled with parks and flowers and is the gateway to both the romantic Rhine Valley and the beautiful Moselle Valley.
Another wonderfully preserved riverside town, Bernkastel is home to an atmospheric market square. Buildings date back to the 13th century and the remnants of Landshut Castle sit high above on a hill, where archaeological remains from the fourth and fifth centuries were uncovered in 2012.
A medieval gem resting on the banks of the Moselle River, Cochem will make you feel as if you are stepping directly into a fairytale. The traditional town is nestled on the riverbanks, with pastel-coloured buildings, half-timbered houses, cobbled laneways and an enchanting medieval hilltop castle surrounded by sloped vineyards.
Relax on board this morning as you cruise gently through the beautiful landscapes of the Rhine Valley. Admire the scenery from your private Scenic Sun Lounge or take some time to explore the features of your 5-star Scenic Space-Ship, like the Vitality Pool (not available on all ships), wellness centre and Sun Deck.
Arrive in Rastatt today. Set on the northern edge of the Black Forest region, Rastatt has a well-preserved Baroque centre, an abundance of green spaces, two iconic palaces, and a vibrant modern arts and theatre scene. It’s also the gateway to the spa town of Baden-Baden.
Located between the Rhine River and the legendary Black Forest, Breisach is a food and wine destination that shares its border with the Alsace region. It was almost destroyed during World War II but was meticulously rebuilt with its traditional cobbled streets and pastel houses restored to their former glory.
Your cruise concludes this morning in Basel (Huningue). Enjoy one final breakfast on board, then disembark for your onward travels, taking with you a lifetime of memories. Please book your flight to depart out of Zurich after 01:30 PM. This itinerary is a guide only and may be amended for operational reasons such as high and low water.
