Highlights of the Rhineland Mini Cruise

Good vibrations in the Rhineland.

From Cologne to Düsseldorf and Bonn to Cologne.

As soon as you arrive on your Rhineland Mini Cruise you will find yourself in the heart of the Rhineland lifestyle. Cologne welcomes you with its iconic Cathedral, lively streets and convivial pub culture. The banks of the Rhine are pulsating with life, and the energy between the old towns and the modern skylines is infectious. Düsseldorf exudes style between Königsallee and MedienHafen, while Bonn offers a more tranquil atmosphere with its baroque elegance, Beethovian tradition and views of the Drachenfels mountain. Three cities, one river, endless possibilities. In just a few days, you will make memories that could otherwise fill many weeks. Urban flair, Rhineland hospitality and relaxing hours on board the A-ROSA CLEA combine to create a holiday that will stay with you for a long time to come.

Düsseldorf

Discover Koblenz during your Rhine cruise. Its history dates back over 2,000 years, making it one of Germany’s oldest cities – and one of its most picturesque, with a wealth of sights and cultural attractions. Marvel at Koblenz’s palaces, stately homes, grand townhouses, narrow lanes and romantic corners. And watch as our A-ROSA ship sails close to the famous Deutsches Eck headland.

Cologne

Welcome to Cologne! The magnificent Cologne Cathedral, one of Germany's most famous landmarks, towers proudly over the city and attracts attention with its impressive architecture and ornate details. Cosy cafés, lively beer gardens and restaurants stretch along the waterfront inviting you to linger and enjoy, while the charming old town alleyways with their traditional houses, boutiques and breweries convey the flair of past centuries.

Bonn

‘Hier bin ich Mensch, hier darf ich’s sein’ (‘Here I am man, dare man to be’). This quote by Frankfurt’s most famous son – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe – actually comes from his play Faust (and the English translation by Bayard Taylor), but it is also a very fitting way to describe Goethe’s hometown. Frankfurt’s combination of modern skyscrapers housing major finance companies and the old town with its historic buildings and half-timbered houses is unique. And if you fancy a break from the hustle and bustle, you can take a leisurely walk along the lovely bank of the Main.
