More Information

Day 1 - 8 +

DAY 1 – BASEL (EMBARK)

Arrive at EuroAirport Basel Mulhouse Freiburg. If your cruise package includes a group arrival transfer or if you have purchased a private arrival transfer, you will be greeted by a Uniworld representative and transferred to the ship.

Important Note: Uniworld’s airport services and transfers to the ship will take place on the Switzerland side of the Basel-Mulhouse Airport. Be sure to enter Customs on the Switzerland side, as guests cannot return to the Switzerland side after they have exited the airport from the France side.

Basel

DAY 2 – BASEL (LUCERNE)

A fantastic cultural hub in Switzerland, Basel is the perfect blend of history and modernity, with an Old Town as charming as any in Europe, an array of public art and architecture to marvel at, excellent cuisine, and more. See this city on foot with a local guide or take this time to dive deeper into Switzerland with a visit to Mount Pilatus.

This evening, a special Captain’s Welcome Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you.

DAY 3 STRASBOURG (BADEN-BADEN)

Strasbourg is invariably described as quaint, with its cobbled lanes, half-timbered homes, giant stork nests, and impossible-to-resist pastry shops. You can take a stroll through town with a local guide today, or alternatively, join us on a day trip to the blissful spa town of Baden-Baden.

DAY 4 – SPEYER

Speyer—“spire” in English—is well named, since the four red towers of the Romanesque cathedral dominate the Old Town. It’s the largest of its kind in the world and an icon of Speyer’s characteristic beauty. The city also sits a little ways off the Pfalz wine route, where many of the country’s best wine grapes are cultivated.

Speyer

DAY 5 – BOPPARD, RÜDESHEIM

Rüdesheim, like many cities along the Rhine, dates back to Roman times, when the Rhine was the northern border of the empire. Today, Rüdesheim is famous for its beauty and its entertaining alley of shops and wine bars called the Drosselgasse.

Boppard

DAY 6 – KOBLENZ, BOPPARD

Today, get to know Koblenz, a historic town with a colorful past and eclectic architecture. As you come upon picture-perfect Koblenz, you’ll sail past Deutsches Eck (German Corner) with its historic monument to Kaiser Wilhelm I.

Koblenz

DAY 7 – BERNKASTEL

Bernkastel sits peacefully in the Moselle Valley and is as romantic and picture-perfect as it gets. Explore by foot its scenic streets, taverns, and vineyards, and enjoy a tasting of exceptional regional Rieslings. Aside from the medieval marketplace, a must-see is the Graach Gate, the last remaining town gate of Bernkastel-Kues. Its original purpose was that of protection, helping to ward off foreign aggression in the 1300s, but now it’s a museum of local history and a beloved landmark. If a bike is your transportation of choice, cycle along the dreamy paths of the Middle Moselle.

DAY 8 – TRIER

Trier is no stranger to famous landmarks, stunning cathedrals, natural beauty, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and architectural treasures. See Trier’s Roman heritage and Gallic charm as you stroll to some of the city’s most notable spots. Marvel at the stone Roman gate, Porta Nigra, the Karl Marx house, Imperial Baths, and more. Alternatively, you can choose to visit the small neighboring country of Luxembourg. Experience a healthy dose of history with a visit to the expansive Luxembourg American War Cemetery and Memorial, where General George S. Patton is buried.

Day 9 - 15 +

DAY 9 – COCHEM

Perhaps one of Germany’s most colorful cities, Cochem feels just like a storybook with its dramatic castle, impressive landscapes, and pastel-colored shops, restaurants, and buildings lining the banks of the Moselle. Perched high above on a cliff sits the brilliant Cochem Castle, also known as Reichsburg Cochem.

DAY 10 – COLOGNE

Enjoy a delightful tour of Cologne’s Old Town, where three medieval gates remain standing, as does the old city hall with its stunning Renaissance façade. Wander through the historical center and take in its charming atmosphere and narrow alleyways flanked by old houses.

Cologne

DAY 11 – DUSSELDORF

Take a stroll through town with a local guide.

DAY 12 – ROERMOND

Roermond is a delightful city in the Dutch province of Limberg. The historical district of the city is a protected area full of significant sites, eateries, and shopping opportunities. Because most of the historic sites are free to enter, this part of town is perfect for visitors who want to get to know the city in a day.

DAY 13 – MAASTRICHT

Your first stop in The Netherlands—Maastricht—is a city with more than 1,670 national heritage sites, some of which can be seen on your Old Town walking tour. Not only that, it’s also known as one of the most beautiful and romantic cities of Holland and beloved for its convivial lifestyle and historic center, which has long played a strategic role in European politics.

DAY 14 – ANTWERP

Today is all about Belgian food. Explore the highlights of the city in search of delicious treats, or visit a museum dedicated just to Belgian chocolate.

This evening, a special Captain’s Farewell Reception and Dinner will be prepared for you.

Antwerp

DAY 15 – BRUSSELS (DISEMBARK)

Disembark the ship in Brussels. If your cruise package includes a group departure transfer or if you have purchased a private departure transfer, you will be transferred to Brussels International Airport for your flight home.
