River Cruise Advisor

I enjoyed my time on Crystal River Cruises so much in October 2019 that I am doing it again October 4-14, 2021.

This time, however, I am inviting you to join me. We’ll sail on Crystal Debussy for 11 luxurious days, absorbing – and immersing ourselves in – what is arguably Europe’s most beautiful river, the Moselle.

During early October, the Moselle Valley is at the height of its harvest season, with wine festivals and celebrations complemented by the natural beauty of the area’s hilly vineyards and charming villages. As we meander up the Moselle, we’ll stop to explore Koblenz, Bernkastel, Trier and Cochem, with included excursions that range from visits to wineries, where owners will host us to wine tastings, to hikes (real ones), bike tours (as active as you want to be), golfing, historic tours – and much more. We’ll return home each day to our luxurious ship that I am sure you’ll enjoy as much as I did during my time aboard in October.

Our cruise embarks and disembarks, conveniently, in Amsterdam, with transfers included between the airport and Crystal Bach. We’ll also experience a bit of the Rhine as we make our way to and from the Moselle, calling in Dusseldorf and Koblenz, where the Moselle meets the Rhine, and on the return, Bonn and Arnhem, the latter being the historic World War II city in the Netherlands.
