Arrive at EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg. If you have arranged a Uniworld arrival transfer, you will be greeted by a Uniworld representative and transferred to the ship.
Important Note: Uniworld’s airport services and transfers to the ship will take place on the Switzerland side of the Basel-Mulhouse Airport. Be sure to enter Customs on the Switzerland side, as guests cannot return to the Switzerland side after they have exited the airport from the France side.
Breisach is your gateway to the Alsatian wine road and your launching point for an excursion along the celebrated Route des Vins, which hugs the foothills of the Vosges mountain range.
This morning, enjoy leisure time as you sail the scenic Upper Rhine to Breisach.
A special Captain’s Welcome Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you this evening.
See Strasbourg on foot with an insightful local expert, where this historic town with its cobbled lanes, half-timbered homes, giant stork nests, and impossible-to-resist pastry shops will win your heart. Kehl, directly across the river from Strasbourg, will be your ship’s base while you explore the Alsatian capital. If you’re feeling adventurous, take advantage of Uniworld’s bicycles or Nordic walking sticks and explore the banks of the river.
You have the entire afternoon to see more of Strasbourg on your own.
The Rhineland-Palatinate region of Germany is known for its idyllic natural environment, rural charm, and expansive vineyards. Forge an authentic connection to this beloved area on one of two unique experiences, led by locals with unique passions. For your first option: meet an estate turning Palatinate winegrowing tradition on its head—where the vineyards don’t produce grapes for wine, but for specialty vinegar aperitifs. At the other, visit a mill-turned-collector’s-museum, where you’ll find a fascinating collection of items from around the world and a gorgeous garden.
Included: MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experiences
Experience Germany’s fabled Rhine River in the town of Rüdesheim. Enjoy a private tasting of estate-grown Rieslings at Castle Vollrads or hike through some of the most beautiful landscapes that line the Rhine.
This morning, you’ll cruise out of Rüdesheim and into the sublimely beautiful and romantic Upper Middle Rhine Valley.
Get to know Koblenz, a historic town with a colorful past and eclectic architecture. As you come upon picture-perfect Koblenz, you’ll sail past Deutsches Eck (German Corner) with its historic monument to Kaiser Wilhelm I.
History buffs will enjoy an expertly led tour through Cologne’s Old Town, where three medieval gates remain standing, as does the old city hall with its Renaissance façade. Wander through the city’s historical center and take in its charming atmosphere, narrow alleyways flanked by old houses, and countless breweries. No matter how you choose to explore Old Town, you’ll also have ample free time to explore on your own.
In the evening, a special Captain’s Farewell Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you.
Disembark the ship. If you have arranged a Uniworld departure transfer, you will be transferred to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol for your flight home.
Your cruise may have come to an end, but your journey doesn’t have to. If you would like to extend your stay, please speak with your Personal Travel Manager, who will be happy to assist with additional travel arrangements.
