The typical friendliness that you find at every turn makes visitors feel at home right away. It’s not unusual to quickly get chatting to strangers and even go for a couple glasses of Kölsch with them. The main landmark – Cologne Cathedral – watches over the whole city. It is the third-tallest church building in the world, at 157.38 metres. It might be a bit of a trek up to the top of the tower, but it’s worth... ### Day 2: Rudesheim **Arrives:** 10:00 AM · **Departs:** 04:00 PM In the Upper Middle Rhine Valley – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – the town of Rüdesheim marks the end of several old merchants’ routes. This strategically important point used to be protected by four castles. Picturesque Rüdesheim is known all around the world for its outstanding wines. Make sure you take a walk through the charming little streets of the old town. Drosselgasse, an alleyway with half-timbered facades, is known as ‘The World’s Longest Wine Bar‘ and is reputed to be the most-visite... ### Day 2: Mainz **Arrives:** 07:00 PM · **Departs:** 11:59 PM Halfway between Lake Constance and the North Sea, the Rhine meets Mainz.

You could also visit the city’s main landmark: Saint Martin’s Cathedral. It boasts one of the richest church interiors in the Christian world. Another important building in Mainz is the Kurfürstliche Schloss (Electoral Palace). This is a ... ### Day 3: Frankfurt **Arrives:** 06:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM ‘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 ... ### Day 4: Frankfurt **Arrives:** 12:00 AM · **Departs:** 02:00 AM ‘Hier bin ich Mensch, hier darf ich’s sein’ (‘Here I am man, dare man to be’).

Don’t miss the delightful Kaiserin-Augusta-Anlagen, the southern part of the Rhine promenade. It was turned into a landscaped park with artistic historical monuments and sculptures between 1856 and 1861. If you fancy a treat, try Debbekooche. Originally eaten by those who couldn’t afford goose on Sai... ### Day 5: Cologne **Arrives:** 05:00 AM · **Departs:** 12:00 AM It’s not just the locals who consider Cologne to be among the best cities in the world.

And the countless meanders of the Rhine, Danube and Rhône are not the fastest way to get from A to B either. But that’s precisely what we want to give you: a little time for you to relax and unwind. As you leisurely take in the breathtaking riverscape, you can really take time for yourself. Make yourself comfortable in your cosy cabin or simply daydream in SPA-ROSA and on the sun deck. If you like, you can also take part in our many exciting activities. #### Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Passenger Capacity | 202 | | Crew | 0 | | Gross Tonnage | 0.0 | | Length | 0.0 ft | | Total Cabins | 0 | ## Ports of Call ### Cologne *Coordinates: 50.9407, 6.95991* It’s not just the locals who consider Cologne to be among the best cities in the world.
