2009: Legendary Rhine & Moselle : River Queen

The story of the Rhine is the story of Europe

The cities along the Rhine River are steeped in 2,000 years of history. From ancient Roman time, the gorgeous Rhine River Valley, one of nature's true works of art, has been an inspiration to all who journey here. Julius Caesar built the Rhine's first bridges. The Rhine inspired Wagner's thunderous operas, and some of Turner's great paintings.

Discover the legends of the Rhine

Traverse through the colorful canals of The Netherlands before joining the legends of history as you sail through this fabled river valley. Cruise past some of Europe's most spectacular scenery, where fairy tale castles and historic sites greet you at every turn. Listen for the maiden Lorelei singing as you sail past the famous Lorelei Rock high above the Rhine, but don't let her enchant you too much as there is so much more to see and do.

Enchanting Moselle: home of famous Rieslings and ancient Romans

Sail the meandering and romantic Moselle River, the Rhine's breathtaking tributary. Be enchanted by a scenery of sylvan woods, ancient Roman ruins, medieval villages, and vineyards where vines cling bravely to spectacularly steep slopes. Indulge in the Moselle's vintages of full-bodied, fruity Rieslings as you pay homage to one of Europe's most charming river valleys, the Moselle.

Travel through five amazing countries - Switzerland, Germany, Luxembourg, France and the Netherlands - along two beautiful rivers, and through countless canals, all rich in UNESCO?World Heritage Sites. And all along the way gain an intimate insight into the history and cultures that have shaped these regions over the centuries.

Who will enjoy this cruise: There's something on this cruise for everyone, from art aficionados to students of history, to nature lovers and connoisseurs of food and wine - museums, castles, grand architecture, fairy tale villages, spectacular nature, delicate chocolates and full-bodied Rieslings.
