Current information about the shore excursions
.jpg)
Christmassy tour Koblenz by foot (29 € p.P.)
Koblenz - the city on the "German Corner" - is one of the oldest cities in Germany. The Roman town is transformed every year into an atmospheric pre-Christmas paradise: the scent of freshly roasted almonds, mulled wine and gingerbread roars through the streets. The city tour takes you past the historic, Christmas decorated town hall with the Schängelbrunnen and many other interesting points. For example, you can see the "Alte Münze", a former Coin Master House of the Electoral Mint on the Münzplatz. Also, on the Münzplatz is the birthplace of Prince Metternich. Worth seeing is the ?Balduinbrücke?, the second oldest, still preserved bridge that leads over the Moselle. The bridge dates back to the 14th century

Christmassy tour Rüdesheim by foot (29 € p.P.)
Your city walk through Rüdesheim starts at the pier where your guide is already waiting for you. During the tour through the old town of Ruedesheim you will see many of the city's sights, such as the "Adlerturm" (Eagle Tower), the Catholic parish church of St. James on the market square (from the outside) and the Klunkartdshof, a monumental half-timbered building from the first half of the 16th century. The Brömserburg, which is today the seat of the Rheingau Wine Museum, the Brömserhof, and the famous Drosselgasse, the heart of Rüdesheim's old town, is also part of the tour.

City Tour Frankfurt with Maintower by bus / foot (49 € p.P.)
On a tour by bus, your guide will show you the main sights of Frankfurt am Main. The contrast between old and new is particularly appealing - the modern skyline with its magnificent skyscrapers on one side and the historic city centre with Paulskirche and Kaiserdom on the other. On the subsequent tour of the city centre you will learn interesting facts about the history of the city as the place of election and coronation of the kings and emperors of the Holy Roman Empire. On the Römerberg, where the coronation ceremonies once took place, Frankfurt's tradition as a trading city was also established. Only a few steps away, the Paulskirche, the site of the 1st German National Assembly in 1848, rises up. The last stop on your excursion is the Maintower, a 200m high skyscraper in the city centre. Enjoy the magnificent view of the city from the viewing platform.
(In case of bad weather and stormy wind, the viewing terrace will be closed for safety reasons).

Your city walk through Rüdesheim starts at the pier where your guide is already waiting for you. During the tour through the old town of Ruedesheim you will see many of the city's sights, such as the "Adlerturm" (Eagle Tower), the Catholic parish church of St. James on the market square (from the outside) and the Klunkartdshof, a monumental half-timbered building from the first half of the 16th century. The Brömserburg, which is today the seat of the Rheingau Wine Museum, the Brömserhof, and the famous Drosselgasse, the heart of Rüdesheim's old town, is also part of the tour.

City Tour Frankfurt with Maintower by bus / foot (49 € p.P.)
On a tour by bus, your guide will show you the main sights of Frankfurt am Main. The contrast between old and new is particularly appealing - the modern skyline with its magnificent skyscrapers on one side and the historic city centre with Paulskirche and Kaiserdom on the other. On the subsequent tour of the city centre you will learn interesting facts about the history of the city as the place of election and coronation of the kings and emperors of the Holy Roman Empire. On the Römerberg, where the coronation ceremonies once took place, Frankfurt's tradition as a trading city was also established. Only a few steps away, the Paulskirche, the site of the 1st German National Assembly in 1848, rises up. The last stop on your excursion is the Maintower, a 200m high skyscraper in the city centre. Enjoy the magnificent view of the city from the viewing platform.
(In case of bad weather and stormy wind, the viewing terrace will be closed for safety reasons).
