The town also offers traditional Rhenish wine taverns and restaurants in a romantic setting. You may like to take the opportunity to board one of the scenic river cruise boats which glide along the Rhine past fabulous sights and beautiful landscapes along the shores of the river (not included), perhaps stopping off to have a look around neighbouring Boppard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a splendid Rhine promenade.

7 DAY DEPARTURES: After a leisurely breakfast we travel to St Goar, a small quaint town with a lovely atmosphere and medieval heart, situated near the famous Loreley of German legend, before we return to the hotel for an early dinner. This evening we head to RUDESHEIM IN JULY or KOBLENZ IN AUGUST, for the wonderful Rhine in Flames spectacular, where a procession of ships decorated with coloured lights provide a magnficent sight as they majestically glide along the river in the darkness and a grand musically synchronised firework display magically illuminates the surrounding mountains and night sky. Late return to the hotel.

Day 6

A full day excursion to Cologne, with its historic old town and many shops, cafes and restaurants. Don't miss a visit to the world famous twin-steepled gothic cathedral which dominates the skyline, enjoy a stroll along the riverside promenade, or for shopping, visit the pedestrianised Schildergasse.

Day 7

We retrace our footsteps back home.
