Düsseldorf's Altstadt is the heart of the city and is also known as “the longest bar in the world”. The freshly tapped Altbier in the more than 300 pubs brings a wide variety of people together in harmony. But in fact, you can have fun in Düsseldorf even without alcohol. The luxury boulevards such as the "Kö" are the perfect place to buy Christmas presents, the green spaces, which are covered in a white blanket of snow in winter, and the beautiful Rhine promenade invite you to take a break - if it weren't for the wide variety of museums! Düsseldorf is just a place of art.
Your exciting festive cruise begins here. Before you set sail, take the opportunity to discover the city and it's world famous buildings. We recommend arriving a day before your cruise, or simply extending your stay after the cruise to really take everything in leisurely.
The charming city on the Rhine transforms into a festive winter wonderland during the Advent season.

Illuminated facades, a giant Christmas pyramid, and atmospheric music create a cozy ambiance all around.
Here is where we embark on our exciting Rhine cruise. You should definitely get to know the city of Cologne with its many monuments and attractions. The best way to do this is to arrive one day before your cruise or simply extend your stay after the cruise.
Whether you’re strolling along one of Germany’s leading luxury shopping streets, the ‘Kö’, enjoying an Altbier fresh from the tap in one of the old town’s more than 300 pubs or discovering one of the city’s many green spaces, Düsseldorf has almost everything you could wish for. Most of the city’s population seems to frequent the Uerige – the archetypical Düsseldorf brewery – even though the name of the establishment comes from a local word for ‘grumpy’. The Köbesse – as waiting staff are known here – are rather unfriendly, in keeping with tradition.
