HIGHLIGHTS OF THE PROGRAM

COLOGNE

Although the weather in Cologne is mild, even in December, and the thermometer rarely drops below zero degrees, the Rhine metropolis welcomes you with wintery charm. After embarkation in the afternoon, you will have plenty of time to explore your festively decorated AMADEUS ship, followed by a ‘welcome cocktail’ with the on-board crew and officers. Thereafter, you will savour your first culinary delights on board at our stylish AMADEUS Welcome Dinner, during which our chef will put you in an appropriately celebratory mood for your upcoming winter trip.

Late at night your ship will set off for Koblenz.

KOBLENZ > RUDEHEIM

You reach Koblenz before breakfast and you can explore the romantic town in the northern Rhineland-Palatinate, allowing the Christmas flair of the old town to charm you. Thereafter, your trip continues through the magical Middle Rhine Valley, past the legendary Lorelei rock.
