Overview

Book online and enjoy exclusive savings on Uniworld's 8 Day Rhine River Valley. Cruise along the Rhine through Germany, France and Switzerland to delight in the wide array of wonderful experiences this region is home to. Immerse yourself in history as you stroll through beautifully preserved medieval towns and a stunning imperial palace.

The Rhine also gives us access to such remarkable destinations as the Alsatian capital of Strasbourg or the multicultural city of Basel in Switzerland.

Itinerary

Arrive at Nuremberg Airport. If your cruise includes a group arrival transfer or if you have purchased a private arrival transfer, you will be greeted by a Uniworld representative and transferred to the ship.

Bamberg in its entirety is not only described as beautiful but has often been regarded as one of Germany's most attractive settlements, with its picturesque architecture, intersecting canals and rivers, and charming stores and restaurants, all framed by rolling hills.

Featured Excursions: Choice of Bamberg Beer Experience OR Bamberg Walking Tour OR Let's Go: Treetop Hike

Note: In the evening, a special Captain's Welcome Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you.

The opulent Würzburg Residence, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers a true sense of the region's history through the European Renaissance. It even contains the world's largest ceiling fresco by Tiepolo. Visit the Residence and its carefully restored gardens or get outdoors and enjoy a scenic hike around Festung Marienberg, a prominent landmark that was previously home to a long line of prince-bishops.

Featured Excursions: Choice of Würzburg Residence Visit with Court Gardens OR Let's Go: Hike to Festung Marienberg

The perfect German town calls for a day full of quintessential German experiences. Resting on the left bank of the Main, Miltenberg is classically quaint with its charming squares, farmland, biking and pedestrian paths, impressive castles and one of Germany's oldest inns.

Your day in Mainz includes a visit to one of Germany's most stunning locales: Heidelberg.
