First Timers - Rhine & Danube
The Rhine and Danube rivers are ideal for first-time river cruisers, particularly because they include multiple countries, providing a memorable glimpse of a significant region of Europe. The Rhine includes Switzerland, France, Germany, and the Netherlands, with cruises between Amsterdam and Basel covering a lot of ground in just one to two weeks. That includes everything from the world-famous cathedral in Cologne to wine tasting in the famous Alsace region of France The Upper Danube travels from Germany to Hungary or vice versa, offering an excellent mix of major cities and charming villages, with hillside castles in nearly every stop.
