Nostalgic Rhine Cruise from Koblenz to Rudesheim

Your full-day tour of the legendary Middle Rhine begins with morning departure from Koblenz. Make your way to the embarkation point near the Deutsche Eck on the Rhine promenade, and climb aboard the KD’s romantic Goethe ship. This paddlewheel steamer offers a unique atmospheric experience for all. Fall back in time to the Golden Twenties as you stroll through the ship’s saloons, bedecked in art deco accents.

Grab a comfortable seat, sip on a coffee or tea from the onboard cafe (own expense) and catch impressive views of key riverside sites. Your journey along the Nostalgic Route takes you past stunning castles, gorgeous vineyards, Loreley Rock and more. 

The 11-hour tour returns to the departure point in Koblenz by evening. (Please see ‘Itinerary’ section below for current timetable.)

• No strict itineraries—get off the boat and explore local sights
