Fairytale villages and steep vineyards along the Rhine's most scenic tributary
The Moselle River winds 545 km through France, Luxembourg and Germany before joining the Rhine at Koblenz. Known for its steep vineyard slopes, medieval castles, and charming wine villages, the Moselle offers some of Europe's most picturesque river scenery.
The Moselle cruise season runs from April through October, with each season offering unique advantages:
Picturesque town with Reichsburg Castle perched above the river.
Charming wine town with half-timbered houses and excellent Riesling.
Germany's oldest city with Roman ruins including the Porta Nigra gate.
Where the Moselle meets the Rhine, with the impressive Ehrenbreitstein Fortress.
Our Moselle cruises typically range from 7 to 10 nights, often combined with the Rhine River. Most itineraries include Trier, Bernkastel-Kues, Cochem, and Koblenz, with options to explore Luxembourg or the Rhine Gorge.
