Guests are met in either Frankfurt or Koblenz and transferred to the hotel barge moored in the heart of Koblenz for a champagne welcome. You will take a late afternoon cruise to Winningen, one of the oldest and largest wine-growing villages in the area, where you will moor for the night and you’ll experience your first gourmet meal on board.
A morning cruise guides you through the lowest part of the Mosel River up to the charming town of Cochem. After lunch you will drive to the castle of Burg Eltz, also called the “Queen of the German Castles” as it is one of the few that were not destroyed by the French King Louis XIV in 1689. A guided tour takes you through this fascinating 12th-century castle. You will then return to the barge with time to stroll through this delightful little village.
After breakfast, you will take a leisurely cruise past numerous vineyards in beautiful scenery to Zell. This is one of the most beautiful towns on the Mosel and is famous for its wines. Visit the cellars of Dr. Josef Weiss, just outside of town for your first wine tasting.
You will cruise up this very picturesque part of the Mosel to Bernkastel, another famous wine village. Here you’ll find the “crème de la crème” of Mosel wines. In the afternoon visit the private cellars of Pauli Bergweiler for a sampling of his superb wines. Finish your day with a stroll around the village of Bernkastel before dinner on board.
This morning you will cruise to the oldest town in Germany, Trier. Trier will take you back to the old Roman times from hundreds of years before Christ. Visit the Porta Nigra, part of the old town wall and the magnificent St. Peters Cathedral, or stroll the old town to browse the shops.
Enjoy breakfast as you cruise through the final port on the Mosel into Luxembourg to the small village of Remich. In the afternoon, there will be time to visit the nearby capital of Luxembourg. Tonight enjoy the Captains Farewell dinner on board.

This was our first trip to South America and we were a little nervous. But Adventure Life made things so easy! All our questions were answered before we left, and our guide, Vidal, was amazing! He gave us enough space to explore without rushing us along. He also knew where the best picture taking opportunities were, which was great.
