We sail up the Rhine to Koblenz, where the Moselle joins the Rhine at the Deutsches Eck, and continue into the Moselle Valley with its steep vineyards, small wine towns and castles. Along the way we stop in Traben-Trarbach, in Riol close to the Roman city of Trier, and in Cochem below the Reichsburg. On the way back we follow the Rhine through the Middle Rhine gorge to R\u00fcdesheim and on past the Loreley to Cologne, before ending in D\u00fcsseldorf. A relaxed cruise with short distances, plenty of time in port and changing scenery every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group c2g-highlights has-global-padding is-layout-constrained
