Itinerary

  • N/A

    Leave the city of Frankfurt behind for an unforgettable day trip to the Rhine Valley - an area UNESCO counts to the World Heritage of mankind.

    15 minutes

  • Niederwald Monument (Niederwalddenkmal)

    Full Day Rhine Tour: After approx. 50 minutes we will reach the Rhine Valley by bus. Drive along the river banks, then up the hills to the Niederwald Monument. Enjoy a fantastic view over the valley and the beauty of its nature. If you like you can join the delightful ride with the ropeway down into the valley (only in summertime), it is available on a small extra fee. Right at the river edge, a short walk leads to the restaurant, a lovely place in Ruedesheim-Assmannshausen. A light lunch is served at this richly decorrated and furnished place with original antiquities. Drinks as well as dessert are not included in the lunch arrangements. We will leave the restaurant and walk to the pier to embark one of the typical white Rhine steamer ships. Slowly downstreaming the most beautiful part of the valley passengers will enjoy the stunning scenic beauty of the river panorama.

    3 hours

  • Loreley

    Approx. one and a half hour later we have reached the famous Loreley Rock: The famous poem of Heinrich Heine describes the beautiful female sitting on the cliff above the Rhine and combing her golden hair, distracting shipmen with her beauty and song, causing them to crash on the rocks. At St. Goarshausen we will disembark. After the boat ride we will return alongside the river banks by bus, the road leads directly along the Rhine shores. Time for another rest: we offer a wine tasting. Those who do not want to attend may enjoy free time for a private stroll, photo shooting, a cup of coffee or just watching the ships going by up and down the river.

Relaxing tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Great trip, great tour guide who was very knowledgeable and great company with 4 other travellers. Very relaxing.

Enjoyable trip to the Rhineland.

Published on Jan, 2025

We enjoyed the trip. I’m sure it’s much more popular when it’s warmer, but the offseason gave us a more intimate tour with only one other couple. We were able to make more stops for pictures. Our guide was excellent. He was funny and knowledgeable and gave us a very good experience. I noticed several lukewarm reviews on the food. It certainly wasn’t the best meal I’ve had, but it was okay. The restaurant deserves mention as it was full of TONS of nautical decor. You really have to see it to believe it. The owner was friendly. I’m not at all a wine connoisseur (snob), so I enjoyed the wine tasting. All in all, an enjoyable trip.

An Excellent Experience

Published on Dec, 2024

Pick up and communications went smoothly. Our tour guide, Michael, was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and funny. The boat ride was delightful, and we spent most of our time outside enjoying the views. Lunch and the wine tasting were a fun experience in a very unique restaurant. We would highly recommend this tour!

Wonderful

Published on Dec, 2024

This was worthwhile. The host was amazing, and the schnitzel perfect. A great experience if you’re on a short visit and want to get out of the city and see different German scenery . Who knew we could see so much in 7 hours!

Great experience even...

Published on Dec, 2024

Great experience even though it was a small group due to it being winter. The meal and wine tasting was held in a quirky restaurant which added to the fun of the day. Michel was knowledgeable and organised. Highly recommend this trip.
