Overview
Title
Once upon Three Rivers: the Rhine, Moselle & Main with 2 nights in Prague
Vacation Overview
Treat yourself to two nights in Prague after your cruise on the Moselle, Rhine, and Main Rivers. Embark on your European river cruise in Bernkastel, Germany, on the enchanting Moselle River. From here take an excursion to the city of Trier—believed to be even older than Rome—with ancient remnants, such as imperial baths and the Roman Bridge. The wine village of Bernkastel, with Germany 's largest expanse of vineyards, will charm you with its narrow streets and half-timbered houses still standing from the Middle Ages. Continue through the dramatic Rhine Gorge—considered the most beautiful view of the Rhine River—and see the rock of the Lorelei and ancient castles standing majestically on cliffs 400 feet above the water. Stop in Rüdesheim, a quintessential Rhine Valley wine town, before cruising onto the Main River. Visit the magnificent Bishop 's Residenz in Würzburg and marvel at medieval Bamberg, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Disembark your ship with a guided sightseeing tour in Nuremberg. Travel from Nuremberg to Prague to discover the “Golden City 's” treasures, such as St. Vitus Cathedral, a Gothic master-piece that dominates the skyline, the Astronomical Clock, and Charles Bridge—Prague 's oldest bridge. In your free time get a taste of the local cuisine with plum dumplings and Pilsner—the perfect ending to this unforgettable European river cruise vacation!
