Itinerary

Day 1 Dec 2, 2027 Frankfurt Departs 16:00 ‘Hier bin ich Mensch, hier darf ich’s sein’ (‘Here I am man, dare man to be’). This quote by Frankfurt’s most famous son – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe – actually comes from his play Faust (and the English translation by Bayard Taylor), but it is also a very fitting way to describe Goethe’s hometown. Frankfurt’s combination of modern skyscrapers housing major finance companies and the old town with its historic buildings and half-timbered houses is unique. And if you fancy a break from the hustle and bustle, you can take a leisurely walk along the lovely bank of the Main. Go to Frankfurt Cruises visiting Frankfurt

Day 3 Dec 4, 2027 Wurzburg 08:30 – 16:00 7.5 hrs ashore The Bavarian city of Würzburg with its impressive buildings in Baroque and Rococo styles is definitely worth a visit. Below the Marienberg Fortress, which is well worth seeing, there are walking paths through the beautiful vineyards that stretch right down to the Main. This is where the good Franconian wine comes from in Bocksbeuteln. The Würzburg Residence is a special attraction, as is the monumental Käppele pilgrimage church. The cathedral and the striking old bridge over the Main are also special points of contact. The Haus zum Falken on the market square is built in Rococo and Gothic styles. Go to Wurzburg Cruises visiting Wurzburg

Day 4 Dec 5, 2027 Miltenberg 13:00 – 18:00 5.0 hrs ashore The lovely town of Miltenberg entered history as early as 1237 and soon achieved considerable prosperity. On the Main loop, the small town enchants with the most beautiful half-timbered houses, the famous gate tower "Schnatterloch" and with what is probably Germany's oldest inn. Wallenstein was already staying here. Stately half-timbered gables form the unmistakable backdrop of the medieval market square. The Mildenburg towers above the idyllic town on the mountain. Up to this point the Romans had advanced to the Main and secured the strategically important place with a fort.
