Every Excursion Included
Choose From Up to Eight Each Day
We appreciate that no two travelers are alike. To accommodate
your unique needs and interests, we have curated a diverse menu
of shore excursions. From historic city tours to guided hikes,
exhilarating bike rides and tastings of local specialties, every
tour is led by a knowledgeable local guide, is operated in a
small group and is offered with our compliments.
Three Activity Levels
Some guests wish to journey further and move at a quicker pace
during their excursions while others prefer more time to take
photos or require frequent rests. To ensure every guest may
explore at their own comfort level, we offer our tours at three
distinct activity levels, ensuring even our most “gentle
walkers” are not left behind – because why settle for anything
less than perfect on your long-awaited vacation?
Inclusive and Accommodating
Our convenient Quietvox audio devices ensure you can hear your
tour guide clearly amidst the hustle and bustle of cities and at
the volume most comfortable for you. We also offer a limited
number of Nordic walking sticks and sport seats for guests who
need extra support or periodic breaks.
* Additional accommodations can be made for select groups –
contact your travel advisor or call us to inquire.
Special Interest Tours
We offer a variety of included tours specially curated with your
individual passions in mind. Enjoy exploring the world through
your tastebuds? Indulge in authentic Belgian waffles and
chocolate in Antwerp or learn the art of French breadmaking in
Libourne. Are you interested in engineering? Venture through the
immense aerospace and locomotive collections at Speyer’s Technik
Museum. Do you love music? Browse the antique music boxes and
organs at Siegfried’s Mechanical Instrument Cabinet while
cruising the Rhine.
Guided Bike Tours
As the first river cruise line to carry a fleet of complimentary
bicycles on board, we are proud to offer included excursions for
you to pedal into historic city centers and along the
riverbanks. Cycle through three countries: Switzerland, France
and Germany while your ship remains in Lucerne; bike to
Germany’s Roman-inspired Walhalla Memorial; glide among the
historic UNESCO-protected windmills of Kinderdijk and so much
more.
Guided Hikes
Take in the sights from a unique perspective by joining one of
our included hikes. Connect with nature while enjoying fresh air
and lovely views as you stretch your legs on Heidelberg’s
historic Philosopher’s Path. Climb to Dürnstein Fortress where
Richard Lionheart was once held captive. Or hike to Mount Pipet
in Vienne, France, trekking among awe-inspiring Roman ruins.
