Nuremberg - Strasbourg
River Cloud II: 8 days / 7 nights
27 Aug. to 03 Sep. 2010 RCII-1021
Fri. 27 Aug.
Individual arrival in Nuremberg. Embarkation on the
River Cloud II at 16.00 hours.
Nuremberg/Germany. Dep.: 21.00
Sat. 28 Aug.
Bamberg/Germany. Arr.: 07.00 Dep.: 13.00
City tour of Bamberg including its famous old town*.
Bamberg is often called Franconia’s Rome, as it is built on seven hills.
Its old town, protected by UNESCO, would be just like an open-air
museum if it were not so young and lively.
Sun. 29 Aug.
Würzburg/Germany. Arr.: 08.00 Dep.: 19.00
Morning city tour with visit to the Residenz Palace*.
Afternoon excursion to Juliusspital winery with wine-tasting*.
The Würzburg Residenz was one of the most resplendent princely
palaces in Europe, and is one of the most exceptional Baroque
castles of its time. The Franconian wine estate Juliusspital has longstanding
traditions, and is one of the most important wine estates
in Germany.
Mon. 30 Aug.
Miltenberg/Germany. Arr.: 09.30 Dep.: 17.00
Excursion to Amorbach with organ concert*.
Legend has it that Amorbach was founded by a hermit. Today, the
monastery is more famous for its Baroque splendour. Its church
organ, also built during the Baroque period, still sounds magnificent
today.
Tue. 31 Aug.
Rüdesheim/Germany. Arr.: 14.00
Visit to Eberbach Monastery with wine-tasting and concert*.
The Loreley is perhaps the most famous rock on the Rhine. However,
you won’t be able to see her legendary golden hair from the sun
deck of the river yacht this morning. Instead, you will see perhaps
the most beautiful panorama the Rhine has to offer. This section
of the river is protected by UNESCO as a natural and cultural World
Heritage Site. In the evening, you can taste fine wines in the grand
rooms of the monastery.
Wed. 1 Sep.
Rüdesheim/Germany. Dep.: 07.00
Gernsheim/Germany. Arr.: 12.00 Dep.: 14.00
City tour of Heidelberg*.
The former residence town of Heidelberg has a castle which didn’t
become famous until it was a ruin. It created the Romantic myth
of Heidelberg.
Mannheim/Germany. Arr.: 17.00 Dep.: 19.00
Re-embarkation.
Thur. 2 Sep.
Strasbourg/France. Arr.: 08.00
City tour with boat trip through “Petite France” and tour of the
famous cathedral*.
Culture lovers will find that Strasbourg, protected by UNESCO, is a
real gem, whilst gourmets will find a wealth of fine delicacies from
the Alsace region behind the buildings’ historical facades. Strasbourg
is, therefore, a real feast for the eyes and the palate.
Fri. 3 Sep.
