Once again Linda Meadors of Blue Horizon is partnering with the German American Heritage Center for a journey to southern Germany's most picturesque villages traversing along four of its most famous rivers- the Moselle, Rhine, Main, and the Danube Canal. We will board the new Avalon Visionary in Remich, Luxembourg traveling east to Nuremberg with stops in the former Roman city of Trier, the vineyard and castle villages of Cochem & Koblenz, through the famous Rhine Gorge, and into one of Germany's most photographed villages, Rudesheim. Along the way our Avalon cruise director will provide lectures with tales of the ancient castles that stand sentry on lofty cliffs rising 400 feet above the waters.
Bavaria is famous for its half-timbered houses, flower-box laden balconies & onion-shaped church domes. Along the Main River you will step back into medieval times in Miltenberg with its Gothic architecture, Wurzburg (the pearl of the Romantic Road) and UNESCO World Heritage Site, 13th Century Bamberg. Our cruise disembarkation takes place in Nuremberg where our optional German Heritage Tour begins.
