Itinerary
Ferry to Calais and onwards to Belgium, stopping en-route in Lille. Later, we check in to our Belgian hotel where we stay overnight.
Leaving our hotel, we stop en-route in Monschau before continuing to Cologne where we board the MV Prinses Christina.
Leaving Cologne, we make the leisurely journey to Andernach, a charming riverside town nestled on the banks of the Rhine. As one of Germany’s oldest towns, it still has remnants of the old town fortifications and is also home to the world’s highest cold water geyser.
Our destination today is Cochem. Surrounded by steep vineyards, this lovely town of half-timbered houses and winding streets also boasts a flower-bedecked promenade and a magnificent castle that rises dramatically above the town.
Our next stop is Boppard. Lying in the Rhine Gorge and once a Roman fort, the ‘Pearl of the Rhine’ is renowned for its fine Riesling wine.
We arrive in the picturesque town of Rüdesheim. There’ll be time to wander its lovely streets including the charming, cobbled Drosselgasse, packed with wine taverns, restaurants and half-timbered buildings.
Why not join an optional excursion to Heidelberg. Built on the banks of the River Neckar, the city is surrounded by lush green hills and boasts a castle and Baroque-style Old Town full of grand and beautifully-preserved buildings. We rejoin the ship at Koblenz.
We arrive in Königswinter this morning. Drachenfels mountain, which rises behind the town, is crowned by the ruins of a 12th-century castle reached by the Drachenfels Railway, the oldest in Germany with a cog wheel. Later, we cruise back to Cologne, arriving mid afternoon.
We disembark our ship and head to the lovely city of Bruges. Known as ‘the Venice of northern Europe’, Bruges is a beautifully-preserved medieval city of picturesque canals, impressive squares of pretty guild houses and narrow cobbled lanes crammed with fine chocolate...
We head to Calais for our return ferry home, stopping en-route in the Flemish town of Ypres.
